Roof, Terrace, Sultanhan, Istanbul, Turkey

Sultanhan Hotel

City
Istanbul, Turkey

Sultanhan is a comfortable hotel that oozes charm and history and has friendly and accommodating staff. Its excellent location on a quiet, leafy street is approximately 5 minutes’ walk from all the historical sites of old Istanbul.

The large spacious lobby area has been decorated with original artefacts and furniture from the Ottoman period with tables made from old doors, opulent chandeliers and other traditional furniture. The 40 rooms are comfortable and elegant but it’s the rooftop terrace and restaurant with its 360-degree views where you will want to spend most of your time! Also available on the ground floor is a sauna and traditional Turkish bath.

Why we like Sultanhan Hotel

It has a lovely quiet yet central location and the rooftop terrace really is a superb spot to take in the panoramic views of Istanbul

Really helpful over the visa hurdles. Couldn't have negotiated the Russian questions without the excellent guide sheet.

Russia

The local guides were excellent, both Anahit and Haik as well as our driver Ariak. So please pass our thanks onto them. They had great suggestions, very friendly, very helpful. We had a great time on this trip.

Armenia

Excellent, well-rounded tour of both Armenia and Georgia, which enabled you to compare and contrast the two nations and gave a comprehensive overview of the common heritage.

Armenia

I called on Friday 5th February and was on the plane, everything in place, on Friday 12th. Steppes are unflappable, reassuring, and thought of everything.

Armenia

One chat with Joe and the trip was on. His personal experience was invaluable.
