Kaftan Hotel

Very friendly and welcoming staff, from those behind the desk to the chef who prepares breakfast. Excellent location, being around five minutes walk from the Blue Mosque and it was amazing to hear the call to prayer five times a day. There's also another mosque just around the corner (only 30 seconds away). The Sea of Marmara is a short 10 minute walk which is a really nice place to relax with your significant other half. It's also around 10 minutes to walk to the nearest tram stop (Sultanhamet) which we found to be the most convenient way to get about. You'll be amazed at how regular the services are and it only costs 1.75 Turkish Lira per person for each journey, which is less than 80p presently. Would recommend this hotel for sure.

Booked double room, but they only had a twin room available when we arrived. Fortunately, in the end, it did work out quite well for us. You also have to remember it's a 3-star small family hotel, so things here, while for us were definitely acceptable, may not be for those that require no less than Hilton/Radisson/Marriott standards.

Vary good location near with all main tourist places. Exelent servise and price relation.
