If you are a Budget Traveler you should definitely consider the Sistina Old City. The hotel is modern, clean and a great value. The staff is very friendly and helpful and clearly well trained. You can arrange a shuttle to/from either airport for the common rate of €50 each way. Check In and Check Out are a breeze no matter what time you arrive. I arrived at 04:00 and the hotel was full. While I dozed in the lobby someone checked out and they had a clean room ready for me at 09:00. My room was small, but not awkwardly so, clean and quite comfortable. The AC works very well and is very quiet. The bathroom is not too small, although at 6’2” 190 (1.9 M, 86 KG) the shower was almost a challenge, but still quite manageable. All of the rooms are going to be quiet as the hotel is on a lightly traveled street. The neighborhood lacks parking so you should check first. The neighborhood is quite nice. Two blocks away there is a street with shops, cafes, food markets and local restaurants. One more block to Ragip Gümüșpala and there excellent coffee houses, restaurants and stores. The main bus terminal is a short walk. The Spice Market and Grand Bazaar are not far away, and the No. 1 Tram that will get you to the mosques is about 20 to 30 minutes. With the nearby bus terminal, tram lines and metro, you can get around easily on public transit. My stay at the Sistina Old City was great and I highly recommend it.

Das Hotel war sehr sauber. Das Personal war jederzeit zu erreichen, hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das Hotel ist einige Monate alt, dementsprechend auch sehr modern. Das Hotel liegt bei Eminönü und somit sehr zentral. Galata Kulesi, Taksim Square, Eyüp Sultan, Hafia Sophia und Sultan Ahmed sind direkt in der Nähe. Ich würde diese Unterkunft jedem weiterempfehlen und auf jeden Fall nochmals kommen!

Harika bir deneyim

Otelde geçirdiğimiz zaman gerçekten unutulmazdı. Oda son derece temiz ve konforluydu, her şey en ince ayrıntısına kadar düşünülmüştü. Personel çok nazik ve yardımseverdi, her isteğimizi güler yüzle karşıladılar. Otelin konumu da oldukça merkezi, etrafı gezmek için ideal. Manzara terastan izlenmeye kesinlikle değerdi.

Otel beklentimin çok üzerindeydi. Odadaki eşyalar çok temizdi. Neredeyse her şeyin sıfır kokusu üzerindeydi. Resepsiyondaki arkadaş çok nazik ve güleryüzlüydü. Tam bir fiyat performans konaklaması oldu. Bir sonraki İstanbul ziyaretimde kesinlikle buradayı tercih edeceğim.
