Use the back door of the hotel to easily reach the main attractions on foot(tracysR9208HO)

No swimming pool but walking distance to the very best Hammam near the Blue Mosque a must! Bring Turkish Lira cash as shops prefer cash. (SUSAN R)

"Great location. Great views. Hidden gem. Staff exceptionally kind"

2026-07-30

This hotel really exceeded our expectations. It is in a wonderful location just a 10 minute walk from Sultanahmet square. We initially got a double room but then asked for an upgrade and the staff were extremely helpful. All of them at the desk were so friendly and attentive. Special mention for Murat who made us feel at home and made sure we had the best stay. My little one Yahya was so sad to leave him and left him a lovely note on departure. This just goes to show the hospitality was impeccable by Murat and also the other reception staff there. Leyla was great with the cleaning and was always on hand to help us with any issues regarding housekeeping she was such a lovely kind lady. Our room had the best sea view of the Bosporous and there was no noise during the night which helps especially being in Istanbul. The breakfast also had everything you can think of. The breakfast staff brought out fresh pancakes and fruit for the kids without even asking which was such a lovely touch. All in all I can’t fault this hotel and the staff absolutely incredible service. Thank you everyone at the hotel and thank you Murat for being such a kind human being.

"Great Stay at Radisson Sultanahmet"

2026-04-22

Great stay at Radisson Sultanahmet. Nicely located overlooking the waterfront with a 15 minute walk north to Sultanahmet square for Blue Mosque etc. Very polite, helpful and professional staff. Bedroom and communal areas very clean, comfortable and well presented. Good breakfast buffet. Would happily return and would recommend.

"Perfect Location with a Beautiful Sea View"

2026-04-16

Great location right by the sea and within walking distance of all major attractions. Friendly and attentive staff, good breakfast with a lovely view. Rooms are clean but a bit small. Overall, a very comfortable and convenient stay — would definitely come back.
