Great place to stay. The staff are super kind and wonderful people. The hotel is small but it is a great space. You are nearby transportation services, attraction spots and restaurants - super convenient. It is a family friendly hotel. I definitely recommend staying here, you won’t be disappointed.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Nice mid range hote
Quiet but steep street, taxi’s struggle to drop and pick up outside. Rooms snug but clean. Bathrooms nice but do need an extractor fan, as paint peeling off the ceiling of 401.
Breakfast good.
Terrace could do with a little TLC to make the most of it.
Room 401 right by lift mechanics so can be noisy.
Very handy for main attractions.
Eating out in Istanbul very expensive but hotel does recommend local cafe that’s very reasonable.
Reception staff friendly.
Loved the Artika Hotel in the heart of Sultanamet.
The Artika was a “WOW” experience for our first trip to Istanbul. We chose it primarily for its location - easy walking distance from the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, the Cisterns and the Topkapi gardens. What made it “WOW”? The staff! Fluent English who looked at us as family. Solid advice about everything from security (walking is safe at all hours) to restaurants, to what scams that tourists may fall for (overpriced carpets).
Honest, warm smiles were given along with tidbits of the city’s history.
Our room was spotless with a modern bathroom. A minibar and safe were in the room. Breakfast was extra but we were too jet-lagged to partake.
Lots of restaurants were in easy walking distance - albeit on fairly steep cobbled streets.
Our room was quiet, a couple of streets off a larger road.
Great location, clean, good, helpful staff special thank to Mr Mostafa,Mr Salih for helping us for finding great tours and booking taxi from and to Airport We will definitely recommend this hotel
Clean and convenient hotel for visiting Sultanahmet. People working at the hotel are very helpful. They made me feel at ease. Unfortunately there are some scams to watch out for when visiting the area. There’s a laundromat across the street as well. We had a good stay.
Very convenient location (4 blocks from Blue Mosque), nice freshly made breakfast daily, friendly managment staff. Special thanks to Salih for answering all our questions and making our stay in Istanbul quite pleasant. We definitely can recomend this place to all our friends.
Rooms were good, area is good in a way that its close to the Sultanahmet Square. Hotel has good breakfast options/quality. Just 2 issues, noise inside the building as throughout the night and day, we could here commotion in the hall or stairs, and/elevator moving. 2ndly, cleanliness. The room wasn't cleaned thoroughly as there were lot of hair in the shower stall and some on the bed too. Otherwise, not bad. Washrooms are nicely built, room size is good.
A nice, clean hotel with excellent and friendly staff.
Shout out to Mustafa who made sure our stay was comfortable and fun!
The hotel is located very close, 5 mins walk, from all the great tourist attractions (Blue Mosque, Aaya Sofia, Grand Bazar, Spice Bazar etc).
The tram station is also within a few mins walk.
I would highly recommend and would visit this facility again.
There was nothing specific that was bad or good. the good bits hotel is in a great location rooms are very nice and shower is great. nothing really bad I think we got off on the wrong foot we arrived at about 7am I think and the reception chap was asleep on the couch. so we woke him didnt mean to but he was grumpy. not at all helpful but then he woke a bit more and was ok then. got us 2 ajoining rooms all good.
Very clean and comfortable. Good size room with everything you need. Receptionist very welcoming on arrival. 5 mins walk uphill to the Grand Bazaar Great one night stay.
