Le Safran Suite Hotel

The staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfasts were simple, but homemade by a very sweet lady Tamara and we never left the canteen hungry. Also the location, it’s perfect! a quiet street in the center of old city, close to metro, marmaray line, tram and ferries. Best of all: good heating system with real radiators, not AC (tho AC is also available), which is especially important for those, who travel in winter.

The stay was very convenient. not too close but not too far from public transport. If you want to avoid walking uphill when returning to the hotel, get off at Sultanahmet Station, and it’s a downhill walk to the hotel. When heading out from the hotel, you can simply walk downhill to the nearby Gulhane Station. The hotel staff were extremely helpful. I accidentally left my bag at the hotel and only realized it after returning to Malaysia. Thankfully, the hotel staff contacted me. I requested their help to send the bag to another hotel where my friend was staying in Istanbul. Mr. Osman, the hotel manager, was incredibly helpful.He personally delivered the bag without asking for any payment, even when I offered. Overall, the staff here are honest, trustworthy, and friendly. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable stay with sincere service.

The location and overall appearance of the building are cool. Aside from the main street, the hotel is quiet, except for the evenings, when the nearest bar starts playing music (not very annoying actually, and they finish by 10 PM). We bought the ground-floor apartment, that was big enough - two rooms facing opposite sides of the building: "living room" faced the road, the bedroom - backyard with all the AC stuff and other noise-makers. By the way, windows provide good sound isolation when shut - rather comfortable sleep at night. The stuff let us in two hours earlier the official check-in time. We appreciated that,.

The staff here was very nice and helpful. They helped with ordering cheaper taxi. They keep our baggage after checkout for the whole day and even gave us free hot tea after we checked out while we were waiting for the taxi. The hotel itself is nice and clean for it's price in a good location.

My friend and i were there for 6 nights and it was absolutely amazing, the location is right where you should be if you want to be close to all main museums (aya sofia , bule mosque..) the heart of istanbul, streets are calm and we feel safe... the room we had was spacious , neat and clean. very charming old building you can feel istanbul's spirit between the walls :) ♡ (but renovated ofcourse) and last but not least the staff is amazing , everyone of them from the manager , receptionists, tamara the lady in the kitchen is a sweetheart, anyone who works there is kind, caring and very supportive, anything you need they are here for your service. ps: they dont do room sevice automatically, you just ask and they respond.
