We recently spent a week at Hotel Saint Sophia. For a first-time trip to Istanbul, the hotel is absolutely perfect with a location within a stones throw of many of the iconic and 'must see' tourist destinations. Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Gulhane Park and the Hippodrome are among some of the top locations within a 5 minute walk, making it easier to get to the front of the queue at the beginning of each day. We stayed in Room 42, an enormous room on the top floor with a small balcony immediately overlooking Hagia Sophia - it was absolutely fantastic! After a slight shock at how close the call to prayer was first thing in the morning it quickly became a rather comforting routine to our morning. Aside from the brilliant location, the staff at Hotel Saint Sophia were absolutely exceptional. Sinan and Taha and everyone from housekeeping to wait staff and management were so incredibly genuine, friendly and helpful, we really felt looked after. We also thoroughly enjoyed the enormous spread served to each table at breakfast, which included all the traditional Turkish meze as well as eggs served a variety of ways. It certainly set us up for the day. Along with the breakfast, a complimentary 'high tea' was served in reception each afternoon from 4-6pm, serving delicious cakes, biscuits and savouries with tea or coffee. This was a lovely addition to the overall service levels. Very minor maintenance issues did not detract from a really wonderful stay. I would highly recommend the hotel to anyone coming to Istanbul for the first time. Thank you to all of the team for making our stay so enjoyable.

We recently stayed at the Hotel St. Sophia for 3 nights. It was an excellent hotel in a perfect location. The outstanding customer service we received has left a lasting impression on our entire experience. A huge thankyou to both Arda and Sedat who were so welcoming on our arrival and went over, above and beyond to make our stay so enjoyable and our entire experience so memorable. Thank you.

1. Worlds best location: 3 metre from Hagia Saint Sophia & Basilica Cisterns and tram line. Between Grand and Arasta Bazaars, amidst rooftop bars, local and tourist haunts, currency machines, Topaki Gardens etc. 2. Worlds best staff - 24 hours concierge, assist you with anything, even managing currency machines 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. Know your itinerary and help you manage it, with great local tips & booking support. 12.00 check outs! 3. Great Turkish and other breakfast, bar service and intimate venues. 4. Water galore, great towels and robes, really comfortable beds and Bvlgari products. 5. Fantastic English and great humour.
