Mr. Bird Hotel

Location is just perfect, especially if this is your first time in Istanbul on a holiday occasion. Sirkeci station is just around the corner. You can easily connect by tram with other parts of the city or change to MRT. Sultanahmet Square where the main touristic sights are located is in 10-15 minute walk away with Gulhane Park along the way. The proximity of Sultanahmet Square also means easy and convenient connection with the airport by Havaist shuttle bus (Sultanahmet Square is the final stop of one of the routes). If you would like to take a ferry or a Bosphorus tour, Eminonu Pier is in 500 m or 5-10 mins walk away. By the way, to avoid the crowds you can take Bosphorus tour from another pier which is around 1,2 km to the east from the Eminonu or opposite the Northern exit of Gulhane Park, You can easily get to Galata Tower by tram or even by foot if you wish to cross Galata Bridge walking. Rooms are in perfect condition, nothing to fault. Amenities were more than sufficient for me (carry your own tooth brush). Despite that this is an active touristic area, I felt safe. It was quiet in the night (only 12 rooms in this hotel, 2 rooms on each floor). Good sleep. I would definitely stay in this hotel again, if I am in Istanbul.

Not a big deal, but kettle could be more convenient one with an automatic switch-off; have to unplug it every time.

The ambience, location, breakfast and the room view.

The room, toilet & the lift are conjusted. They charge your credit card for the full amount, even before you check-in physically on the date agreed (morning) .

Great value & great price & clean & helpful staff

Just a bit small room, but it’s an an issue.

The location, cleanliness, breakfast.

The bathroom was very tiny.

The location is great. The Staff were all very friendly, and would always check you had everything you needed.
