We just returned from an 8-day stay at the White House, which we found to be an outstanding hotel in all regards. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. The hotel is situated within a few blocks of the major sights (Topkaki Palace, Aya Sofya, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar) and is only about a 15-minute walk from the Galata Bridge.... More

We've visited a number of hotels in Old Town and you learn quickly that the rooms are going to be small. The White House is no exception. Don't let this put you off. They have great staff (very helpful), a great location, and good rates. We'd recommend they get rid of the shower sprayers which takes up too much space... More

This hotel made us feel that we were, in fact, staying at THE White House.

We stayed for four nights from 9th May. The hotel is right in the heart of Sultanahmet - within a short walk of virtually all the major sights and venues. Even the Bosphorus, where all the tour boats are based was only a twenty minute walk. The Spice Market ( a must-see) was also there. The nearest tram stop was... More

The room rate was excellent value for money, booked through www.booking.com staying in the most central location of Sultanahmet!
