Central, and very nearly tram stop to get to other parts of the city. Nice to have pool and sauna. Jacuzzi not working. Rooms on the small side (though we were warned about this) |

The staff's hospitality and the access from historical district! I could visit Sultanahmet, Eminonu, and Sirkeci area easily on shank's mare.This hotel is also near all transportations, so best suited to the sightseeing. |

It was a pleasure to stay there, both exceptional and memorable. The welcome was excellent, the surroundings were sumptuous. The food and service were all that you could ask. |

The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast buffet had a wide selection. The location is proximate to the sight-seeing points, Topkapi Palace, Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque and in walking distance to the Eminönü waterfront. There was no rooftop terrace restaurant as promised on the website. More English channels on the satellite TV selection. |

Had a good stay at the hotel. Pick up from the airport was extremely welcome. Staff were friendly and helpful about trips and other details. Buffet breakfast was good. I also enjoyed being able to have a swim in the hotel pool after sightseeing all day. The situation of the hotel was excellent - easy to walk to most famous sites. |

The hotel is very well located for the sights in Istanbul. The staff were very polite and helpful - the manager contacted me by e-mail before our visit to arrange a free pick-up from the airport. The breakfast buffet is very good and although the rooms aren't huge they are perfectly adequate given that most of the time we were out sightseeing. |

Everything was as advertised. Excellent location for sightseeing and shopping. The street in front of the hotel is closed to traffic. It can be a long walk, with bags, to the hotel. |

The location is great, very close to the major sites. It is on a quite side street with many resturants close. The rooms are small but comfortable and the staff was very accomodating. They arranged an Airport Shuttle in the middle of the night that worked well. It was a little hard to find. The street becomes more of a walking street so the Taxis are unwilling to drive down it. |

Staff were very friendly and helped a lot. Location was perfect for major attractions. The internet access was always available but was slow and had no printing capabilities. Hence no printing of boarding passes after on-line check in. |

Location of the hotel is very good, near to tourist attractions. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Nagyon jó helyen van a szálloda, közel a nevezetességekhez. A szobák kicsik, de tiszták és kényelmesek. A személyzet rendkívül kedves és segítőkész. |

The staff was extremely helpful--walking us to a suggested restaurant, making our breakfast buffet early, arranging for early transport to the airport. They were very friendly and ready to meet our every need. |

The staff were so friendly and helpful, taking time to give directions for the best sights in Istanbul. The room was small but surprising good and recently renovated very tastefully. The hotel is in an excellent position for site-seeing the old city. It would definitely stay at this hotel again. The breakfast was just ok, although plentiful. |

The location was superb. The staff were very helpful and very friendly - they were a real asset for the hotel. The breakfast buffet was excellent - we stocked up on that and then didn't need to eat anything until dinner later that night. The PC with internet access was helpful. Overall it was very positive and I would recommend Hotel Sapphire to anyone. Having read the reviews I was expecting tiny rooms - they are small but they are perfectly acceptable. The only problem he had was with a bedside lamp. It wasn't working and I spoke to the reception who sorted it out. When used again the switch started smoking and it went bang. I reported this to reception but this was not working again during the rest of our stay. A small issue that did not affect the holiday. |

At this perfectly located hotel, you can enjoy your breakfast every morning while admiring the spectacular views of the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Bosphorus and Princess Islands. |
Situated in the historical Sirkeci district of Istanbul, the Maywood Hotel is a 4-star hotel offering Turkish-styled accommodation in a great location; the hotel is just minutes from the Blue Mosque... |
This charming hotel with its elegant, neutral interior and spacious accommodation is in a central location of Sultanahmet, hosting panoramic views of the Marmara Sea. |
This elegant hotel has a classical Turkish design and is a great location for sightseeing. It is only a short walk from the Bosphorus and many of Istanbuls famous landmarks. |
