Agah was amazing. he went above and beyond for me. The doorman were really nice and I miss everybody already.They offer so many great things. I was... More

The Sirkeci Konak deserves all the accolades it receives. We were delighted with every aspect of our stay at this splendid hotel. The staff always had a smile and a 'hello' and were genuinely interested in making sure that we were comfortable and we were made to feel very welcome. Our room was on the top floor, very quiet and... More

We traveled to Istanbul earlier this month (May, 2012) and honestly, I had my reservations. When we arrived at the Sirkeci Konak, I was charmed by the location of the hotel and its exterior appearance. Its a tall, brick building, nestled between other buildings of the like and sits on a quaint and quiet little street with small stores selling... More

We spent 3 days/2 nights here prior to boarding our ship. We could not have been happier with our choice. The staff was extremely helpful and efficient. We were met at the airport and upon arriving at the hotel the concierge was eager to assist us in familiarizing us with the area. We easily walked everywhere and loved our balcony... More

My husband and I have stayed at the Sirkeci Konak hotel twice now and each time I've been impressed. The location is incredible, a 300m walk to Topkapi Palace, 600m to Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque and a similar distance to the Spice Bazaar and the river side. There is a small convenience store across the road that sells... More

Pretty much everything has been said in previous reviews. Starting with the communication around the booking, being met at the airport as arranged despite being held up in Immigration (it is pedantically exact and slow when planes unload all at once. Visa has to paid for with foreign currency in one line then another snake-like line awaits), being greeted at... More

This hotel is amazing! I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. It is a boutique hotel with real charm and real comfort. Even though it is older in style it feels modern and luxurious. We had a gorgeous room overlooking Topaki Palace gardens and glimpses of the Bosphorus (will need to lay a bit more for this type... More

Lovely people, good location. Within walking distance from many of the major sites. Service is very, very good and personal. They will do anything to help you. When we left, they even went out of their way to help us to our taxi and wave goodbye. Rooms are smallish, but clean and comfortable. Downstairs a hammam and small pool is... More

After booking the hotel we got a nice email welcoming us. We arrived early in the day coming off a cruise. Our rooms were not ready so they stored our bags and invited us for breakfast. The staff does everything they can to make you feel welcome. The rooms are a good size and the bed is comfortable. The location... More
