Great little hotel. Wonderful breakfast and helpful staff. Very clean and nicely decorated. Strong air conditioning was lovely after suffering through a European heat wave without it.
This has been the best stay. Specially the staff is really friendly, helpful, and supportive.the view from the terrace is amazing. The breakfast is lovely and so is the person who makes zaida, she gave the best service for breakfast. Kenal has been very helpful with everything. We cane with are parents. If you want to stay near blue mosque in sultanahmat i would strongly suggest surahan hotel.
It felt absolutely truthful.
Excellent value! Food was fresh and tasty. Rooftop terrace a beautiful bonus. I got soft pillows when I commented that they are a bit hard.
The bathroom was superclean (new) and not smelling, as I experience in other hotels here.
Location for my taste was perfect!
No street noise, rooftopventilation or other hotelstuff talking on the street.
I absolutely enjoyed my stay at this lovely authentic hotel.
Property location is extremely convenient and staff is extremely hospitable. Accommodated our special requests, from driver to and from the airport, laundry & Turkish bath recommendations.
This is a wonderful hotel. Very family friendly. All the workers are very nice. Their breakfast is great. Farrahudin along with his coworkers at the front desk were all very kind and professional.
I had an excellent stay at Hotel Saruhan in Istanbul. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff went above and beyond—especially in arranging a fantastic cruise trip. The terrace breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options and stunning views of the city and sea. Perfect location near major attractions and truly outstanding service. Highly recommended!
The included buffet breakfast in the rooftop terrace was amazing! We especially loved the beet and yogurt salad (just try it!) and the carrot, cabbage and dill salad. Not normally something we'd eat for breakfast but the food and experience was spectacular!! The rooms had a beautiful Turkish feel and look. We enjoyed our cozy room and bed and the service throughout was fantastic 😀
Don’t let this little older hotel put you off, it is a gem. The rooms, though older, are spacious and spotless. The staff were amazing the whole stay. You can beat the breakfast, the woman that puts it out works very hard to ensure all leave full. A bonus is the coffee and tea they provide in the breakfast room anytime of day. Would definitely stay there again.
Saruhan Hotel is charming, friendly, very comfiortable, with real local character. The roof terrace is gorgeous, the breakfast (on terrace) is splendid. Our room with park/sea view was perfect. Historic sites are a comfortable walking distance, and local eating is good (with hotel's advice). We will definitely stay again on our next trip.
Hotel location is amazing, at walking distance of main interests. Staff is very friendly and service is great. Breakfast is very good! Amazing choice :)
This place feels like home with amazing views.
Home made breakfast was comforting and delicious, the terrace is open all day long with coffee and tea is a pleasant bonus!
Hotel staff is friendly and helpful beyond the call of duty.
Breakfast area on top floor, on terrace with sea view is unique, food is excellent, and breakfast time rise this hotel far above my expectations.

Very close to the blue mosque area in the heart of sultanahmet. Many affordable diners in the area. There is a nice park in front of the hotel. The staff are excellent and very friendly and helpful. Coffee is available until 11 pm. The staff lady in the kitchen is super sweet and helpful. Rooms are very clean. The hotel face may need a touch up.
A really wonderful experience from start to finish. Everyone was so helpful and anything we asked for was met with courtesy and smile. Great breakfast everyday. Will definitely come back here .
