Top Theodosius Cistern Hotel Reviews

Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

8/10 Good

"Very central, great location for walking to the attractions Hotel was nice, staff friendly but we were originally put in room 201 which was really small. The other couple in our party room was so much bigger so we asked to get changed as we paid the same. They couldn’t do that on the 1st night but they changed us the following day which made such a difference. Breakfast a bit basic, could be better."
