Katelya Hotel

Me and my wife had an amazing time in Istanbul and we attribute part of that to unbelievable/ outstanding service from the hotel. The hotel arranged a shutttlebus for us from the airport. We were greeted at the hotel by Yacin a staff attendant. I cant put into words how helpful he was in planning some of our days with excursions and showing us all the great places (and even arranging transportation). The hotel owner Maya, was also very helpful in helping us find places and making sure we were comfortable. To sum it up and be very honest, you're not getting a 5 star room . However your definitely getting a 5 star experience with the service, location and breakfast . Ultimately the service and location was so good , that it made our trip an unforgettable experience. Also for those wondering about location , this is easily a 9.9 /10 .. Thank you again Maya and Yacin !

We had a few hiccups while we were staying there. There were 3 instances where we didn't have water running into our room because of a burst pipe, supposedly. However, the hotel was nice albeit the sea view room was a lot smaller than I expected. It's location is great though! Right next to many major sites definitely a 5 min walk to the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. I would suggest eating at Doy Doy which is a great restaurant right up the street from the hotel. The breakfast options were superb, Maya was very helpful in giving us suggestions where to go to find restaurants and items we needed for our trip. I wish I could have had a better experience without the water issues and a slightly better room, but for the price we got I had a great stay and I would actually consider coming to this hotel again!

Strategic location, very near to the major local attraction in Sultanahmet. Very quiet ambiance, less traffic, not in the main road. Room very clean & cosy. Wifi have good reception & internet was fast. The receptionist very kind, polite & helpful. Food was very good. And it's cheap!

Very god

Great location with easy access to the main historical sites. Hotel is lovely, cosy, clean and stuff is very friendly and helpful. We would definitely come back again.
