Stephen 10.0

The view from the rooms balcony. We could virtually touch the Hagia Sofia and you could sit up in bed and see the Bosphorus (First) Brisge lit up at night. If you turned right you were about half a mile from the Grand Bazaar and if you turned left about a quarter of a mile from the Hippodrome Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia, the Basilica Cistern and the Istanbul Archeological Museum, an absolute must if you're going to tell people you've been to Byzantion, Constantinople and Istanbul. Excellent breakfast buffet included as well. If you want the view, try and get hold of room 508 x.

Raisa 10.0

Very nice hotel , great location , walking distance to Sultanahmet square, Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar. Tram stops and metro station near by. Breakfast is included and was very good. The room was clean and spacious with big terrace. Air conditioning worked well as it was hot during our stay. There are many good restaurants in the area but our favorite was seafood place next door. The stuff was polite and friendly . Special thanks to Dmitri for arranging transfers from / to airport and help with local information.

The location was excellent as well as the breakfast. The staff were very helpful especially when organising an early breakfast prior to a booked tour. The room was quiet for a hotel.

Mohammed 8.0

The location of this hotel is excellent for visiting the historical landmarks of this magical city. The grand mosques are a 5 minute walk, grand bazaar 12 minutes as well as the vibrant Eminonu district. The breakfast was good, room AC excellent and the beds were comfortable.

Ali 10.0

I have done so much research before booked in Istanbul and let me tell you this Albatros Hagia Sophia Hotel offers the perfect blend of location, comfort, and hospitality. Just steps away from Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, it’s ideal for exploring the historic Sultanahmet area. The rooms are clean and cozy, some with charming balcony views. Breakfast is fresh and varied, with a lovely local touch. What truly sets this hotel apart is the warm, attentive staff—especially Era —who go above and beyond to make guests feel at home. A great value stay for travelers seeking authentic comfort in Istanbul.

Tímea 10.0

We had a truly lovely stay at the hotel, and I would especially like to highlight the incredible staff who made our experience unforgettable. The receptionist in the evening (unfortunately I forgot his name sorry my Turkish Brother) was always very kind, polite, and friendly with us. He helped us a lot, gave great local tips, and my son Alparslan absolutely adored him. We’ll definitely bring a small gift next time – I won’t forget his kind gesture! Our room was beautiful, perfectly clean, and the beds were very comfortable. It was spacious enough for three adults and my son, who especially loved the terrace. I also want to give special thanks to the lady at breakfast with black hair – she was unbelievably kind and helpful. I had a personal emergency one morning, and she assisted me immediately, like a caring sister. I’ll always be grateful for that.

Khatuna 10.0
