Meh, I’m sure there are better.

Booked the room I booked. Kept getting messages from staff asking to upgrade the room. Smokers allowed everywhere, woke to smoke smell in the hallways despite being smoke free rooms. Loud pool noise until 2:00am. Over booked preventing available seats at breakfast. Booked a dinner cruise through concierge and the guide was 45 min late then after left us on one side of a busy street to fight traffic crossing, no cross walk…and he had a disabled guest that was left behind. They tout high class and maybe so for all the medical tourists but I’ll never go back.

Stayed for 5 nights together with my 17year-old daughter, first-time sightseeing tour in Istanbul. Wonderful hotel, amazing food, helpful staff, clean, best possible location for sightseeing and public transport...has a swimming pool, sauna, and steam room - all included, our room was quiet, no complains... can certainly recommend as a great family-friendly hotel.

Need to be a bit more accomodating. Had to wait 5 hours to get a room after a long flight. Food in restaurant was good. Coffee not so much. Good location. Room and bathroom adequate. Pool too small and crowded for swimming. Internet slow.

Front desk girl with braids in her hair was terrible. She doesn’t smile, doesn’t seem like she wants to help guests. Asked her for a wall adapter, she told me to go buy one?! Asked “you guys don’t have any?” She then opened a drawer FULL of them and gave me one. Why? Why are you purposely making guests stay difficult? On top of that, the front desk people are trained to lie (yes I say lie) to every guest by saying “sorry we don’t have an extra key card right now, come back tmrw” which at first I thought was weird until I came back next day and was told same thing. I forcefully asked for an extra key card for the room. Heard others ask for one upon check in only to be told same thing. Pool is very tiny; only about 10 tanning beds and about 5-6 chairs. Went down at 10:10 am (opens at 10am) only to find people put their towels/belongings on the beds to reserve them while they ate breakfast etc. That was super annoying. Also, the view from the room was terrible. You either get a view of the “garden” which is just the sitting area in between the hotel lobby and the pool or at the building across the hotel which is old and nasty. Also, room was very small; smallest of the 3 rooms I have stayed in at 3 different hotels during my stay in Turkey (all being 2 twin bed basic rooms). The only good part of this hotel was location, very close to Hagia Sophia Mosque, the Blue Mosque, train station, and shopping/food districts.

The pool was fantastic. We saved so much money on Ubers as all of the attractions were within walking distance. The service was excellent. We felt safe but annoyed with being asked to eat at every restaurant we walked by. Overall location 9.9!

Sura Hagia Sophia Hotel is simply superb for an Istanbul getaway. Its location is unbeatable, literally steps from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, with countless restaurants nearby. We easily walked to all major sites – highly recommended! The pool and spa are fantastic for unwinding. While breakfast was just "okay," the rooms were great, offering stunning views of both the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. For comfort, convenience, and those incredible views, this hotel is a top choice in Sultanahmet.
