“good value hotel”
This was a nice hotel in a very convenient position for touring Istanbul. Very helpful staff and a nice breakfast on the roof terrace. They can organise transport to and from the airport which was excellent (20 euros for 2). Room was comfortable and quiet and clean.
“Fantastic location”
They gave me a large room on the 4th floor with a balcony overlooking the bay, so my review may be biased. The place was clean and comfortable, and warm despite the 0C weather. The staff were friendly, and breakfast was good (breakfast is on the 5th floor, also with a great view, a nice way to start a day). The metro runs right past the hotel once an hour or so, and is a quite noisy.
“Pleasantly surprised!”
Deniz Houses hotel is great place to stay with many of the tourist sites within walking distance. The view of the marmara sea and the blue mosque was a bonus. We booked three rooms and they were all spectacularly clean and roomy. The hotel staff are very warm and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others.
“Just right”
Nice, comfortable, clean, friendly staff. Great location
“Charming hotel very near the main attractions”
This hotel was lovely, the staff charming and the breakfasts on the terrace overlooking the sea to one side and the Sultanahmet to the other were terrific. Room had TV and aircon and our own little garden (rooms higher above had balconies). Airport transfers were very handy and they offered to help arrange sightseeing if required. Very close to the Blue Mosque but could hardly hear the calls to prayer. Handy copy of Time Out Istanbul which can be borrowed from the reception "library". Lots of cool mini leaflets about local attractions, basic vocab, history etc.
“Between the Mosque and the Deep Blue Sea”
Have learned to be suspiscious of reviews that are too glowing but this place -especcially for the price- deserves it. Had been on the road for two rough weeks when i arrived and it provided a much-needed respite: clean and comfortable. The stairs-only may be a negative for some but i was on the top floor and loved it! Overlooked the Marmara Sea from my room (also over the train tracks which didn't bother me). The staff, especially the front desk, went above and beyond, helping with phone calls, special requests, etc. Good -if typical- breakfast on the top floor with a terrific view of the Blue Mosque. Great way to start the day! Compared to other hotels in the same price, this was a gem. It's perfectly located for the major sights but ask for very detailed directions when booking.
“It does the job: Good base: Somewhere to sleep:”
3 nights stay in Istanbul, the hotel was clean and tidy, staff were very helpful. Breakfast was included in the price and was better than what was expected. Distance from the blue mosque was only approx. 5 - 10 min walk and it is very easy to get around from the hotel. There is a railway line that is at the rear of the hotel that doesn't operate from 12am - 7am. Overall, a pleasant stay and comfortable room with clean bathroom and a working tv and fridge.
“Great palce to stay”
Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is well situated for seeing the sights of Istanbul. Close to main attractions and ample eating places in the vicinity. Supermarket close by. Very highly recommended.
“Charming hotel beneath the Blue Mosque”
A quirky little hotel converted from a merchant's house in the back streets of Istanbul just below the Blue Mosque. A "real" location for those who really want to see the city and not just other tourists, but feels entirely safe. 5 minutes from Sultanahmed Square and the trams. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was on the roof terraces which overlooked the Blue Mosque on the one side and the Bosphorus on the other. You had to watch your head as the doors onto the terraces were only some 1.2m high! Airconditioning was much appreciated. Not for the elderly, no lift and 4 storeys
“Great value”
A great little hotel,atmospheric and comfortable although no elevator.Great views from the breakfast room on top floor-Blue Mosque on one side,a seaview on the other. The staff were helpful and it was easy to book tours with them.They are keen to promote their tours and airport transfer. Very convenient to the main attractions but still quiet at night apart from the call to prayer! Very good value.I would definitely go back.
