Celine Hotel - Sultanahmet Hotel

Coming from the U.S. I recently stayed at this beautiful hotel in Istanbul and absolutely loved the charming Ottoman vibe throughout the property. Everything was spotless. The rooms and common areas were incredibly clean and well-maintained. The food was delicious, and the breakfast was honestly amazing with so many fresh options to enjoy every morning. The location is also perfect, with easy access to museums, historical sights, and shopping centers. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.

Don’t need to go anywhere else, if you wanna feel like a Sultan, you come and stay at Celine hotel. The decor and architecture of the hotel is amazing. What makes it even better is the customer service and how friendly people are. Truly, this place is definitely on the rated and the price is too good to be true.

Excellent small (14 rooms) hotel right in the heart of Sultanahmet. Literally a two minute walk from the Blue Mosque and 5-10 walk to the Grand Bazaar (it is uphill). Rooms are immaculately clean and well presented, ask for a higher floor for views of the Marmara at the back and the bustle of the city to the front. Ideal if you wan to be in the heart of the action but less so if you’re looking for a tranquil retreat. The staff are wonderful and their recommendations were always spot on, truthful and informed and they couldn’t have been more helpful. Breakfast is basic but good.

I wrote my review on hotels . com and they edited my words which is totally inappropriate and annoying. So hopefully Trip Advisor will not.||A wannbe great hotel…but it is not. It is a small hotel with 14 rooms so it is not overwhelming in size or amount of clientele. They also have a working elevator.||But many of the concierge are busy talking to their friends on the phone, or acting like you owe them a favor for them doing their job. They really want you to book activities thru them so they can receive a commission. ||One fellow got annoyed with me when I mentioned that I had tipped the cab driver…being from NYC we always tip cab drivers, however I do not tip the concierge staff at a hotel…unless they preformed a miracle like last minute orchestra seats to Hamilton on Bdway. ||The front desk concierge is supposed to be helpful. The morning concierge John is happy to help me with my eSim card and answer your questions. And print out emails and travel arrangements. ||Perhaps some people should not work at hotels, especially those who explode at guests about the television in the room. |However, if the television is no longer connected to the hotel internet / wifi or if one moment the television works and the next moment it does not…it is not the guests fault. ||My first room on the fourth floor, was large and comfortable. However the sink drain in room is broken, so it is hard to wash out any clothing. The wall of the tub is so high I must be very careful to enter and the tub is slippery. ||As to how to empty the water in the tub the man at the desk ignores my question, so water sits in tub all night. Finally I realize if I pull out the drain stopper the water goes down. Why didn’t he know that? More to the point why didn’t he say anything?||Also there are no wash cloths or bath mats for safety. Being handicapped they are necessary, so I did request them and offered to pay for them however the concierge was able to provided them, courtesy of the owner. That was good.||The bottles of shampoo etc… some are full snd others are half empty. ||The towels in the tub/shower are so high up to reach I had to use my cane to push them off the shelf. And there no hooks to hang them up to dry. ||The shower head is so high up a 7 ft (213 cm) tall basketball player’s head could easily touch it. ||The main entrance needs hand rails. ||I only had the breakfast once so I cannot comment. ||Also the front rooms are noisy from all the street activity. ||If you leave your bags with them they sit in the hallway not in a locked storage room as per the information I received from them via a hotels.com email.||It seems as though the owner is busy with other businesses so he never checks in.

We spent five nights in this wonderful hotel. The service from check in was pretty special. The room is ornate and quite large. Very impressed. The only thing I would mention is the lack of coffee. We had one satchel in the room upon arrival and it was not restocked. We had to buy some from the shop across the road.

This boutique hotel is very centrally located in the old town. It is within walking distance to most of the iconic attractions such as Blue Mosque, Haiga Sophia. Etc. Certain rooms have distance water views. There are many restaurants in the near vicinity. The hotel managers were extremely helpful & friendly. The breakfast was good & adequate. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Stayed at this hotel from August 26 to September 11,2025. Very nice renovated mansion hotel. Room was excellent, staff extremely helpful. Excellent breakfast included. Steps away from the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia. Near shops, restaurants and felt safe day or night walking throughout the area. Highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is a boutique hotel featuring a beautiful spiral staircase which wraps around a class elevator serving all of the floors. The historic hotel offers classically decorated large rooms with high ceilings and full amenities. The breakfast was ample and delicious. It is close to old city attractions like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and the Grand Bazaar. In addition, the staff are super helpful and friendly. They can help you with transportation to the airport, dinner cruise reservations, and directions to wherever in the city that you want to go. I had a great time at the hotel and would recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
