This was a great place to stay in Istanbul. It's in Sultanahmet, which is the historic district, just a few minutes from famous mosques and museums (really recommend the Archeological Museum!), hundreds of restaurants and cafes, and the Arasta Bazaar, and it's on a nice, quiet street. The Grand Bazaar and the Egyptian Bazaar and spice market are also within walking distance. Everything was provided for and there was someone to meet us and give us a sense of the surroundings. We really felt like we were well taken care of.
