Our room was a disappointment. On the 3rd floor, climbing up is exhausting. The bathroom is cold and the whole thing floated during one shower. The toilet was not fixed, so it moved every time we used it. Some of the toiletries described in the equipment are not available (bathrobe, conditioner) The slippers are useless. The sheets are wrinkled like they have been used before, the towels are stained and have holes. We had no heating for 4 out of 8 nights, sometimes they were able to fix it, sometimes not. The air conditioner does not work in heating mode. During our stay there, a shower cabin was installed, disturbing our rest and we could not use the shower for 24 hours. We boxed this down to 3 hours. There will be no water for part of one night followed by hot water. The breakfast buffet is not very abundant. The icing on the cake was the last morning. We asked for an earlier time for breakfast at 7:30, because we had to leave for the airport at 8. The lady serving breakfast made a fuss and, after several requests, she was willing to serve us, so that we brought bread for breakfast ourselves, and then she didn't even give us a phlegmatic answer. All this so that it was paid for and we agreed on the next day. We did not receive any compensation or refund for the inconvenience. We were, and are, very disappointed.

The is the worst hotel that I have ever stayed at. The rooms were very dirty, the toilet was broken, room service was very rude and not communicative. I would not recommend this hotel because you will be very unsatisfied. Attached you will find internet pictures and real pictures because online pictures are not reality!

Small hotel, it is very different from the pictures. You can encounter many problems in the room without being solved like the shower or DC or anything else. There is no TERRACE like what's written on the internet. It is closed and they will add more rooms instead. The room was good-sized with working Wi-Fi, good bathroom as well, with no views & a small window & a very thin curtains that morning light will wake you up. The breakfast was ok with a little food quality & cheap ingredients. The area around is hilly that you must ascend for 7-10 minutes to go to Sultan Ahmet area, but it isn't far away. Several restaurants around including typical turkish pide (turkish pizza) that is cheap. I think i will not stay in this hotel again.

I originally booked my hotel through SultanAhmet Deluxe hotel through Booking.com and was shocked when they told me that they are fully booked and couldn't use my card to confirm the booking as it was declined. At this point I was already panicking because it was a very long walk from Cemberlitas metro station and really tired from the commute. So the guy told me not to worry because there is another hotel I can stay, which is this. I was transferred to a big room but they said that i can only stay there for a night and had to move to another room the next day. The bedsheets are not clean because you can see hairs from previous guests and the towels are washed but looked grayish. The toilets are not maintained. I had to suffer the ordeal for the next 2 nights. In addition, they charged me for 100 Turkish lira for an airport transfer, which I thought was a private vehicle but then ended up riding a taxi. The receptionist only paid 60 lira to the driver and kept the change. What a scam!

Hotel was far from a pleasant stay, the bathroom is old and rusty, the tiles are orange with mould and looks as if a cleaner has not tended to it in months. Everything in the bathroom looked as if it was falling apart, the toilet flush button has fallen off and was sitting next to the toilet, the was rusty and there were spider webs all over the ceiling. Our room was so close to reception we could hear everything, the men on reception would talk loudly and it was extremely nosey and not comfortable at all!! On our first night I asked reception if we could please have another top sheet as all that was on the bed to sleep under was the top blanket that you would place on a bed for decoration, it was hard and looked like it would not be cleaned after each guest. Our room was never made up during our stay, no new toilet rolls or towels. The breakfast was average and we ended up eating down the road each morning. Yes this hotel is cheap and you definitely get less than what you pay for.

reservation with booking.com so I couldn’t leave a review. Finally was given the room without curtains. Was desperate to sleep after more than 24 hrs of travelling. The room stank. Asked for curtains and they pretended they did not understand English. I showed them a picture and they understood but still did not put any up throughout my whole stay. We were given two rooms on the 3rd floor. Bare in mind there are no lifts and noone to help you carry the cases. Bannister is a Health and Safety issue. It’s broken and sellotaped. The bathroom floods the bedroom no ventilation. By day 3 we were all sick with vomitting and diohrea. The bedsheets weren’t changed and the maid came twice on a 6 night trip and spread out and tidied the same sheets. We asked for clean towels and were left ones that had BLOOD STAINS!! Could it get any worse? Breakfast is very cheap and limited. Olives cheese tomatoes and cucumbers. The breakfast lady is only person thats sweet and welcoming. No water and no juice, other than lemon juice. They switch the WIFI off so your limited to passing time. Hotel is Situated in the worst area. Look out of your window and you see roofs broken and left over food thrown on them. Pictures below Shower was covered in limescale. Bathroom doors don’t shut. This place ruined my holiday and made us all very ill I tried booking us elsewhere but everywhere was fully booked so had no choice to stay there

If there was a award for 'worst hotel in existence', I am sure these clowns would be atleast runners up. They double booked our rooms. They didn't tell us they did this untill we paid for our rooms. Having travelled for many hours this meant having to stay in the lounge for many hours waiting for the guests to check out of the rooms yet we had paid for them. The owner and his son are a disgrace. They pretend they do not understand you but are fully aware of what they are doing, and are happy to take your money. Offered for us all to stay in a single room which was inhabitable and then some (leaking toilet flooding the bathroom, mouldy rooms). Quite literally the most unhygienic rooms I have ever come across. The shower rooms are a joke. Vile, black water comes out of the taps. Shower heads are as big a disgrace as this establishment. If you expect clean towels, The Simra Sultan Hotel offers free sprinklings of blood on some towels!. Breakfast is a shambles, literally limited selection. This hotel is not what it is advertised to be, and sure it's in Istanbul but they ruined my holiday and without question they will ruin yours too. Would give it a 0/10 but that is too kind, for the love of all that is holy please avoid like the plauge

Pretty poor hostel. Bathrooms were tiny and you could sit on the toilet whilst showering. Pillow was balls of fluff. Air con doesn’t work. Asked for help. Worker put a key in and walked off. Didn’t care too much. The whole room woke up wet in sweat from how hot the room was. It was terrible. Dinner came out over an hour after we ordered. Terrible breakfast in which workers ordered us to clean up after ourselves before we even finished. Some workers were nice.

I went there because another hotel was overbooked for the night. And I was very grateful that a friend found me a place to sleep. But the hotel room was dirty, small but worst of all so much noise. Now the middle of the night and room close to reception where there is still radio music on. Not to mention that you can hear the people in other rooms talking with loud voice. And when someone goes to the badroom it sounds like a washing machine next to bed. So I did not sleep at all. Luckily I was able to leave the next day to a nice hotel!
