This was our 2nd Stay at Hotel Ravi! We were happy to return to Hotel Ravi. It is a new, boutique-like hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet. It’s walking distance from all the main attractions in Sultanahmet and very close to the Blue Mosque. The Hotel décor includes some beautiful Turkish stonework, and the attractive rooms are thoughtfully designed, and have great showers! For a small hotel, their breakfast choices are awesome – both Turkish and European! However, I would be remiss, if I did not comment on the hotel’s management. Everyone was so helpful and kind. We absolutely want to recommend this new place to stay!

We Highly Recommend Hotel Ravi – a New Boutique-like hotel in Sultanahmet! We could not have been more pleased with our stay at Hotel Ravi. The location, in Sultanahmet, was perfect. We were walking distance from all of the major attractions, and very close to the Blue Mosque. In fact, from our hotel window, we could see part of the Blue Mosque lit up at night. The DELICIOUS breakfast, which was included in the very reasonable price, had a WIDE variety of healthy Mediterranean and European choices. It tied for our best breakfast in Turkey! The rooms are thoughtfully designed, and include attractive Turkish stone work, and hand-held showers. Furthermore, the hotel organized our airport transfers for us with a very reputable company. We also appreciated the fact that we could store part of our luggage. On top of all of this, the staff really cares about your stay. Even before we arrived, we had been given important tips regarding our stay. Indeed, the general manager, Ayca Cesnigil, really helped us. I will always remember, after an exhausting day of sightseeing, being able to relax in the lobby, while drinking their complementary Turkish tea!

It is an excellent hotel with lovely staff. Room was smaller than other hotels we have stayed in but I have heard that most hotels in Istanbul are like this. But it was clean and quiet at this time of the year. AirCon worked well and room has a little balcony too. Location very convenient to access all important landmarks and eating areas. Staff is very polite and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Ravi. The rooms were clean and well appointed. The room service staff were excellent and the manager and front desk staff were absolutely amazing and treated us as family. The location was incredibly convenient. I highly recommend Hotel Ravi and will return if I’m ever in Istanbul. As a bonus, there’s a bit of history preserved in the basement.
