Wonderful stay in Istanbul
I had a lovely stay at this hotel and truly enjoyed my time here. The location is excellent — very central and convenient, with easy access to attractions, shops, and transportation.
The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it a perfect place to relax after a long day exploring the city. The staff were kind, welcoming, and always ready to help, which made the experience even better.
Overall, I felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of during my stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul and would happily stay here again. Thank you for the great hospitality! 🌟

Very budget friendly and only 1 min from the tram, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Basilica Cistern and short walk to the Grand Bazaar and other shopping areas. You’re right at the heart of everything in Sultanahmet.

Rooms are simple and clean with all necessary amenities, but dim lighting. Larger family rooms face the street and have more natural light. Nice staff and there’s a restaurant right in front to grab chai or a meal anytime.

Its a great place to stay. Location is excellent. All attractions in old city are just few minutes walk away. Metro station is also near. You can get all kinds of food downstairs. Staff is so friendly and helpful. I thouroghly enjoyed my stay here. Only thing missing is a lift, but in price, I think its best place to stay.

I had a wonderful stay at Oldmile Hotel! The experience was great from start to finish. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed — they truly made me feel at home.

The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the atmosphere of the hotel was very warm and relaxing. Everything, from the check-in process to the service throughout my stay, was smooth and professional.

The location is also perfect — close to everything, yet quiet enough to enjoy a peaceful rest. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the effort the team puts into making every guest’s stay enjoyable.

Overall, I’m really happy with my experience at Oldmile Hotel and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Thank you to all the staff for making my stay so pleasant!

One of the best small hotels in the very center of Istanbul!
The rooms are spacious, cozy, and perfectly clean — not only inside but even in the stairwell.
Special thanks to the owner, who genuinely cared and checked if everything was fine during our stay.
The housekeeping staff worked quickly and attentively, changing towels whenever needed.
Despite being in the heart of the city, the soundproofing is excellent — we slept peacefully every night.
The location is perfect — just a short walk from all the main sights of Istanbul, including Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Grand Bazaar.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and true Turkish hospitality.

I recently stayed at Oldmiles Hotel in Sultanahmet, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. The location is unbeatable, situated in the heart of Istanbul’s historic district, just a short walk from major attractions like the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace. The staff were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout the stay.

It was a very nice little hotel. The location is great. Walking distance to all the historical sites. A clean hotel. Mr. Hakan was very interested. He answered all the questions we had. Unfortunately the breakfast at the hotel is just okay. We came knowing this. It is a reasonably priced place. We recommend. We were satisfied.

Excelent location, friendly staff, nice rooftop terrace. Everything one might want from a hostel in Istanbul!

I came in December so it was fairly quiet, but if you come in the warm months there will surely be a large crowd. The terrace upstairs offers good views around and a good place to meet people. Located very well right off the Sultanhamet Tram stop, and very convenient to get to almost anywhere in Istanbul. Offers cheap breakfast, cheap ride to airport, and nice rooms with heat/ac and warm water for shower. Wifi is average. Hosts are very helpful, and informative. Great place to stay, especially for backpackers.
