Le Safran

This is a good - if basic, hotel. Staff were helpful. And it is right in the old district. :) Note this is Le Safran PALACE Some upkeep would really help here [bathroom fans etc]. Also wifi needs to be improved. [But maybe a whole internet problem - Vodafone was awful in Turkey and England especially.]

After all their help, the staff were let down by their driver service. Ended up okay, but service could not provide a car earlier than booked when plans changed - poor service. Also The tour bus could not find the hotel! The tour arranged mixed up Le Safran Palace and Le Safran Suites, and Saffron! So just be aware.

Le Safran (Palace) - Cağaloğlu Hamamı Sk. No:4 -this is the real address !! Excellent location, just 5 minutes from Sultanahmet Square and the T1 tram line. Good breakfast, although it could start at 8 a.m. for guests with a sightseeing schedule. Superb view of the Bosphorus from the terrace. The street is quite quiet. The room is small but sufficient, with new furniture and a comfortable bed. There is also a kettle in the room. The room was warm on cold days! The staff is very kind and helpful. Just let the reception know if you need anything (cleaning, information, etc.) and they will take care of it. We will definitely come back!

The shower door needs some improvement!

Location was perfect so close to all attractions in Sultanahmet. The hotel room was clean, good facilities, as described and for the price a good stay.

L'emplacement. La gentillesse de Baïram et son jeune collègue.

Déjà c'est pas ce que Booking.com dit. C'est un hôtel qui a bcp de problèmes, il s besoin des gros travaux: mauvaise isolation de portes, on voit la lumière par dessus, l'eau qui coule à côté du pommeau.... A la base j'avais une chambre, quand on a voulu rentrer... surprise il y avait un couple, dans son intimité. Une autre chambre....pas très top. Le lendemain, reprise de la chambre de base. On me donne les clés. Horreur.... draps et serviettes du couplé du soir, donc linge non changé. J'ai exigé le changement et désinfection. Trop déçue par cet hôtel, lequel, dans cet état je ne recommande pas. On dit qu'il a un restons sur la terrasse. Non, il n'y a pas. Effectivement une belle vue. La terrasse c'est un lieu de stockage, un grenier, ou les gens vont boire et fumer, ce s'ils achètent en ville. C'est sale.
