This small, friendly hotel close to the heart of Sultanahmet is one of the area's best values. Rooms are somewhat basic but comfortable, clean, and on the larger side by Sultanahmet standards, as are the bathrooms. The rooftop terrace, where homemade breakfast is served, has a beautiful view of the Sea of Marmara and Aya Sofya. Service is personal and accommodating—the place has the feel of a bed-and-breakfast. Pros: good value; personable staff. Cons: minimal amenities (no TVs or minibars, etc.); poor soundproofing between rooms; nearby bars can be noisy at night.
