Dejligt værelse, god beliggenhed og venligt og hjælpsomt personale. Men dyrt i lyset af at spa afdeling er noget slidt og poolen et lille. Ingen restaurant og tagterrasse er blot eg par borde, hvor man alene betjenes ved at ringe til receptionen i stueetagen…

This hotel really made our week in Istanbul special. The facilities are great - clean, nice hammam, excellent breakfast, good lounge area - but above all it's the staff that make the place so great. They are always friendly, helpful and welcoming without being overbearing. The hotel manager, Okay Alkan, organises tours several times a week. These show you parts of Istanbul away from the obvious tourist sites and are absolutely free (the hotel even pay the tram fares!). Okay is really friendly, knowledgeable and keen to share the culture of his city with visitors. These tours were real highlights of our stay. We had a huge, comfortable bed and a view towards Gulhane Park and Topkapi Palace (in a standard room). The kettle was a bonus for us Brits too! The street the hotel is on is quiet with very little traffic, but it's an easy walk to all the main sites and about 100 yards from a tram stop so the location could not be better. If (hopefully when!) we return to Istanbul we won't even consider staying anywhere else.

Fantastic location and very friendly staff in a charming hotel with good breakfasts, a small pool, sauna and Turkish bath. Perfectly located for exploring the old town on foot (including the Ottoman Emperor's palace, Blue mosque, Hagia Sophia and the Grand Bazaar) but easy to nip over the Galata bridge by taxi or tram for nice restaurants (Gallada is amazing but expensive and Ali Ocakbasi is great but hidden). We had a brilliant time here.

The Sirkeci mansion is a lovely boutique hotel conveniently placed to the Topkapi and other attractions. There is tramline up the road, the restaurants and shopping are right on the doorstop The hotel itself is very clean and rooms were very comfortable with everything you need ie clean bathroom and tea/coffee making facilities water is available and there is a safe. The staff are amazing from reception to housekeeping nothing was too much trouble for them. There is afternoon tea and snacks from 3-5 everyday, the Turkish bath and gamma was very good. Outside the hotel the people are the most humbliest from shop keepers to restaurant staff Overall our stay at this hotel was really lovely and would definitely go back

Great Hotel in a great location! 5 stars!!! I stayed in a twin room my first night, and the regular room was just fine, thank you. However, because my wife was joining me, I upgraded to a top floor room with a balcony. It was worth the extra expense! The view was great! We both loved our stay! The location is fantastic… It’s on a quiet street in the historic old city. The wall of the palace is across the street… There are nearby gateways into Gulhane Park, which is where the Topkapi Palace and related museums are located. Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque are as close as a 15 minute walk. There is a tram stop on the corner in the direction of Hagia Sophia. In the other direction, another 10 minute walk will get you to the train station that was the terminus of the original Orient Express train. Across the street from the train station is the ferry terminal! Access to the rest of Istanbul could not be easier. If you’re in the mood, you can walk to the spice bazaar. Public transit is easy and efficient, and the hotel is well situated for exploring the area. We stayed 7 days and used only public transportation. We took ferries, trams, metro and busses. No need for taxis. Breakfast at the hotel was quite good and we got to know the staff. In particular, get to know the manager, Okay. He is good at his job, and had great advice for things to see and do, as well as how to leverage public transport. He is well connected and can also arrange tours, if you are so inclined.

Nice boutique hotel in a great location in the sultanahmet neighborhood. Beds are small and the building is ran on central cooling/heating so keep that in mind. Our room was really warm and they just had the option to turn heat on so we had to leave the window open all day and night to stay cool. Other than that really nice staff and a great hotel to stay at during our trip.

We loved everything about Sirkeci Mansion. The pre-trip messages via Expedia were very helpful and made it easy to arrange airport transportation. Check-in was great, rooms were perfect, and breakfast was excellent. But what makes Sirkeci Mansion great is Mr. Agah Okay and the entire hotel staff. We really can’t thank them enough for making our first trip to Istanbul as memorable as it was. The walking tour lead by Mr. Okay was outstanding and should not be missed! We arrived too late in the week to make the other tours, but I have to assume they are also great. Finally, the hotel is in a prime location, with mostly everything in the Old City within walking distance. The tram and metro are also very close, convenient and easy to use. We can’t wait to return to Istanbul and Sirkeci Mansion!

Staff are outstanding- absolutely make the stay exceptional. Knowledgeable, friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Take one of their organized tours - our food tasting tour with the Manager, Mr Alkan was exceptional! Breakfast is very good, and hot dishes change every day. The location is outstanding, proximate to all major sites, and 1 minute from tram stop - which makes it super easy to get around. Example - our ferry to Bursa was cancelled; the front desk helped us book an alternative ferry… by calling the ferry company (IDO), being put on hold, then our Visa card wouldn’t work, so he paid with his personal Visa, to make sure we got the reservation. Just outstanding. If in doubt, or trying to decide between hotels, pick this one, you won’t be disappointed.

Sikeci Mansion is an impressive boutique hotel in the heart of old Istanbul. It is in a quiet but central location, perfect for visiting the main cultural/historical sites in the city (e.g. Aghia Sofia, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar, Bosphorus). There's a lovely park near by (Gulhane park), as well as lots of good quality restaurants and cafes near by and easy access to shops. The hotel itself is well-maintained and the staff were excellent: they were friendly and keen to help with any queries. I'd highly recommend the hotel and would definitely stay here again when visiting Istanbul.
