This clean, comfortable and friendly small hotel is on a quiet street in the old section of Istanbul very close to all the main sites, shops and restaurants. The rooms are good sized and attractive (especially the family room), and the beds are very comfortable although the bathrooms are small. The train tracks are nearby but we didn't hear anything...

Ahmet Efendi Evi is in a very convenient location to the major attractions in the Sultanahmet area. Walking past Hagia Sophia and The Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet) at... More

Firs of all I want to say that I loved this boutique hotel as much as I loved the entire city and I think it's the perfect location for exploring the wonderful Istanbul. From my point of view I can't find anything not good at this hotel. The stuff is just great, they speak a perfect English, they give you... More

We loved our 8 night stay at the Ahmet Efendi Evi. Yusef was there to greet us when we arrived from the airport shortly after daybreak and well before anyone else was stirring. We had been delayed with a diverted flight and an unscheduled 15 hours on the ground at Jakarta airport so were a bit the worse for wear... More

If you are a first time traveler to Istanbul or a seasoned veteran - it would be difficult to find a more perfect place to enjoy your stay. Tucked away in the Sultanahmet district, this little gem is within walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Aya Sofia and the Basilica Cistern. It is also located in an incredible neighborhood away...

My wife and I are from India. We stayed at this amazing place from Nov 6 to Nov 10 2011. The key POSITIVES of this place are: 1. The 55 Euro per night top floor double room was an amazing value for money option compared to the other places we stayed at in Turkey 2. Amazingly courteous, helpful and informative... More

I stayed in the Ahmet Efendi for a week in October and would always come back to this place. Why? - the people in this hotel (the owner and the stuff) were always absolutely friendly and helpful. You asked them about a good, not too expensive place for food: they told you. You asked them about postboxes for your postcards:... More

We arranged airport transport with the hotel over the phone. They told us that it was 40 EUR for two persons. When we paid for this shuttle service during check out all of a sudden they wanted 60 EUR which is more than a normal taxi! In booking confirmation mail a lower price was stated but they said their prices... More
