Great location in old town. Walking distance to major attractions. Lots of great restaurants. Hotel staff could not be more accommodating, knowledgeable or professional. Good breakfast. Great place to stay.

Gloria, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location is outstanding and the staff was so supportive and helpful. The terrace has an outstanding view and breakfast was delicious. Lots of amazing food and great coffee, we looked forward to it every morning. The rooms are a little dated and as any old building a lot of creaking but overall a great stay.

naseem, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Darussaade is a charming boutique hotel located in the heart of Sultanahmet, just steps away from iconic landmarks like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The rooms are cozy. The staff provides exceptional service, always going the extra mile to ensure guests feel welcomed and well taken care of. Breakfast is a delightful spread of fresh Turkish specialties, served in a lovely dining area.

8/10 Very good

zain, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Darussaade Hotel staff were very helpful and courteous. The breakfast was very good with different options. The hotel is only five years old so it is very up to date but with a classy look in the room. Shower water pressure was very good. Close to everything. Bed comfort is one of the best of any hotel I traveled to before. I highly recommend it :-).

Great place. Very nice staff.
Suleiman, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Old fashion room, friendly stuff, quiet place and safe to stay. I would suggest to improve the breakfast menu, otherwise I recommend the hotel for your vacation.
Svetlana, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent hotel close to Blue Mosque and Hagi Sofia
A good choice if you want to be close to the major tourist spots in Istanbul Old Town. About 10 mins walk from Tram stop but plenty to do in walking distance. Room good size and comfortable bed. Unfortunately air con only on heat mode so room rather warm at night. Breakfast selection pretty good, although no meusli or yoghurt which was a bit surprising. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Would certainly recommend it.
Steve, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff at Darusaade (especially Ismael) were fantastic, kind and helpful. Breakfast on the roof was very nice and lots of food options. The hotel is basically a 5 minute walk from the tourist sites, you can see Blue Mosque from the windows, and is on "restaurant row" in Sultanahmet. It could be noisy in the early evening at times but otherwise a very pleasant room and stay.
Pamela, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

While the room was on the small side it was well compensated by the friendly staff and fantastic location - close to everything! Very quaint!

Cool central hotel
The location was very central to everything. Just a ten minute walk away from major sites and the metro which I appreciated. The rooms have a fun style and the terrace breakfast was always great and the views were great too.
