Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is at prime location just walking distance to Blue mosque Grand Bazaar ,tram what else can u ask for . Room average not much view , having said that when u are on holiday u just use ur room to sleep thats it , the views from breakfast restaurant are stunning, the staff are super friendly ,visited their spa my 1st ever turkish bath experience and would recommend it any day, Anna the masseuse was amazing ,was bit sceptical getting the bath and sauna treatment after going thru a bypass 6 months ago , but Anna made the experience amazing she ensured and checked on me if I was ok time to time and not applying too much pressure.... will return to Istanbul and without a shadow of doubt this is where I will be staying again.. Thank you for ur amazing hospitality.."
