We wanted to stay near the Grand Bazaar in a non chain hotel. This fit the bill very well. The street in front is closed to cars after 10am, so we did have to walk about 300 meters from the taxi with our bags. Room was very quiet. Couldn’t even hear the calls to prayer when we slept.

Fatima

Disliked: Staff & service
Very poor customer service. There was a wifi issue when I arrived during check in time and the receptionist told that they would send somebody to check. I had to go downstairs to check when I found out no body was going to show up. When asked for bottle of water, the receptionist guy had asked me to get the water from the cooler in the dining area (lower floor from reception). What kind of customer service is this?? Disappointed with the overall stay. I would recommend you to hire more people and train on customer service instead of overworking the existing staffs. As for proximity to the tram it is good.

Friendly Staff in Old City

The Grand Sirkeci Hotel is well centrally located in the Old City, and the staff is fantastic about the care and service they provide to their guests. The rooms are very clean, and mine, at least, I could see one of the great Mosques of the old city from my window. Would recommend
