    I had a wonderful stay at a great little hotel on a quiet street. The location was perfect, just a short walk to popular attractions like the Hippodrome Square, the Blue Mosque, and Hagia Sophia. The staff at Sphendon Hotel was very accommodating and the breakfast served in the dining room and courtyard was delightful. The rooms were comfortable and I especially enjoyed the pleasant view from my courtyard-facing room. The hotel also offered reasonably priced laundry service, which was a bonus. The management even arranged a cab ride to the airport at a much lower rate than other services. I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant stay in Istanbul.

    The best aspects of my stay at this hotel were the friendly staff and the convenient location. The staff was always helpful and provided excellent service throughout my stay. They were always available to answer any questions or provide assistance. The hotel is also in a key location, close to the city center and major attractions. It was so convenient to be able to walk to all the historical places and explore the city without having to travel far. Additionally, I really enjoyed the cleanliness of the hotel. The rooms were well-maintained and the hotel overall was very clean and nicely decorated.

    The worst aspect of my stay was the noise levels within the hotel. The walls and doors were quite thin, so I could hear voices, footsteps, and even hairdryers from neighboring rooms.

    The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Niga and Sevda served an extraordinary array of delicious dishes for breakfast. The patio overlooking the courtyard was lovely. The hotel's location was perfect for visiting the main Sultanahmet attractions, just a 5-minute walk away.

    Felt like a home away from home, no complaints whatsoever.

    This hotel is a hidden gem in a quiet neighborhood, yet still right down the Sultan Ahmet hill in the center. The rooms are in good condition, with basic amenities like air conditioning and a terrace. The breakfast is a delicious spread with a great view of the citadel wall.

    All was more than fine, nothing to complain about here.

    The hotel is in a great location, close to good restaurants and main tourist attractions. It is nestled in a charming, old area, with the Blue Mosque just a short walk away. The rooms and bathrooms are in good condition, providing a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly and accommodating, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast is amazing and the view from the terrace is incredible.

    The housekeeping could be improved, as some guests experienced their personal clothing being pushed to the side.

    The hotel had a great location, just a short walk away from the famous Sultanahmet Square and other main attractions. We loved that it was tucked away in a quiet area, providing a peaceful atmosphere for a good night's rest. The room was clean and nicely decorated, with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The staff were friendly and always ready to assist with any questions or needs. The breakfast was delicious and had a good variety of options to choose from. We also enjoyed the rooftop terrace with its stunning view of the Bosphorus, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.

    The bathroom was quite small and the shower leaked a bit, which was a bit inconvenient.
