Very walkable to the Sultanhamet area. I would say it's on the outer edge and not in the middle so perhaps it would have been more quiet except there was street construction so it was not (not their fault). The front desk staff was very helpful to all of our questions and getting us taxis or explaining the tram. Breakfast was included and very good. The hotel does not have a restaurant for dinner. There is a small rooftop bar but it was unattended because of the weather. It was not warm enough this time of year. Anyway, there are many rooftop bars in the area. I would have liked an iron in the room and a make-up mirror.

Hotel Amira Istanbul is a small, welcoming hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet. From the moment I arrived, the friendly staff made me feel at home. Check-in was quick, and they were always ready with helpful tips about the city. My room was clean and comfortable, with simple decor that still felt warm and inviting. The bed was soft, and I appreciated small touches like a selection of Turkish teas and daily turndown service. Housekeeping kept everything neat without ever disturbing my schedule. The rooftop terrace is a real highlight. It offers a clear view of Istanbul’s famous skyline, with domes and minarets all around. It was the perfect spot to relax in the morning sun or watch the city lights at night. Each day began with a delicious Turkish-style breakfast. The spread included menemen (scrambled eggs with tomato and pepper), fresh simit (sesame bread rings), local cheeses, olives, honeycomb, and seasonal fruit. The staff served everything quickly and were happy to explain each dish. Overall, Hotel Amira delivers exactly what you need: a clean, comfortable room; attentive, friendly service; and a great location near major sights. If you want a simple, stress-free stay in Istanbul with a taste of local flavors, this hotel is a solid choice.

I stayed twice at this hotel . Bathroom was clean , the hotel is ok . The rugs were torn and dirty in the rooms and on the second stay I was given one of the only 3 upgraded rooms . The rug had a bigger tear this time and walls were with dust to the point of being able to write on it . Very disappointed. However the staff was fantastic and very accommodating. Breakfast buffet was maybe a 6 of 10 . I have pictures if anyone cares to see them .

The coffee machine in the restaurant was the best part of the hotel. Next the staff. Everybody was very friendly, nice and helpful. Location is great. Walking distance to major sightseeing places and if not close to the Tram station so it was very easy to move around from the hotel. The only thing is the hotel is just too outdated but typical for Sultanahmet area.

The hotel is conveniently located about 5 mins away from the blue mosque and about 15mins from the grand bazaar. There are many restaurants around serving turkish and continental food.
