Very good

good breakfast, view to sea from rooftop, quick access to transportation, noise is heard from neighbors due to wall set up, walls are not noise resistant. overall I enjoyed staying in the property.
Location, location location: this hotel is right on the spot where the ancient hippodrome used to be and 5 minutes walk from the Hagia Sophia and all the action. Plenty of eating options very close by. The hotel is busy - even in the low season.
There are a few issues: first - and most importantly - the 'standard' rooms are not all equal. The first room we were put in was small and basic and a twin despite us having requested a double bed. We complained and they 'upgraded' us to a 'standard' room which was bigger with a double bed on a higher floor. So, if you book a 'standard' room you could end up with a small twin.
The second issue is related to this: they don't seem to take the VIP status seriously. I really had to push for a better room. To their credit, they did deliver it. But I felt like they were doing us a big favour.
The third issue is the distinct lack of welcome when you arrive. A small point, but reception really doesn't seem to care. (When we arrived they.offeted a welcome drink which never arrived). No one offers to assist with you bags. Basically, you're on your own.
All of that said, the location is fantastic.and the rooms are warm and clean. The room staff are exceptional and make up somewhat for the reception staff.
Breakfast is standard Turkish and crowded. But overall, a pleasant stay in a clean, functional hotel.
Hotel is in an excellent position for sightseeing being opposite the Blue Mosque and very close to Hagia Sophia and the Topkapi Palace. The room was fine if a little small. No where to leave a suitcase open and there was no chair to use the desk for writing or applying makeup! However, the staff were very helpful and we did enjoy our stay.
We stayed at Terra Cave Hotel for 3 nights at the end of November and we loved it. Staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged our airport transfers and all the tours we did while we were in the area. Breakfast was great, with omelettes made fresh on order. Location is close to the centre of the town and you can walk to all the shops and restaurants in 5 mins. We only stayed for two days but we had a great experience in the short time we were there.
When they say you are in the tourist area... you can t be more there.
Food everywhere.
Pleasant reception and always willing to help.
Thank you for the lovely stay.
Great place to stay, place was clean and nice, did have trouble one night with the AC but it came on by itself after I quit hitting all the buttons. Had an amazing view from our room which made it even more memorable.
Alzer hotel is in such a great location. It’s a very cute hotel right in the square that faxes the blue mosque and Hagia Sophia. Felt very safe. Was very clean. Breakfast was really good. The cleaning staff and breakfast staff were amazing. It was super walkable and very convenient to plenty of shops and restaurants and all things in SultanAhmat area. Would stay again.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating and provided a baby crib, lots of water, and always offered help with our stroller. With a baby and toddler, we had a very pleasant stay.
The uniqe and old fashion furniture. Rooftop dinning.
Everything was excellent.
The breakfast menu/ quality can improve. Location excellent.
Will visit again.
Great staffs.
Location, is within walking distance from all the places ( Bazaar, Sultanhan Ahmet, Ayasofya).
The staff was extremely attentive specially Mesut and Kemal.
The Alzer Hotel is directly across from the Blue Mosque and on the Hippodrome, which is all flat. Istanbul is very hilly, so this was a fantastic location for me, who has mobility issues due to a bad knee. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing stay. The food was exquisite, and all the staff were the best I have ever encountered... nothing was ever too much trouble. We would definitely recommend the Alzer Hotel, and we would love to return one day and stay here again.
