Tan Hotel  

Perfect location. Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Can't fault it.

It was convieniently situated for all the sites of Istanbul. The breakfasts were excellent and the staff extremely helpful. Would recommend to anyone travelling to Istanbul.

This is the second time i've stayed at Tan with my family and absolutely loved it. The hotel staff seems to adore children so our daughter always gets special treatment. The location is brilliant with great restaraunts right in front of the hotel and the blue mosque literally within a 2 minute walk.

Central location, view at breakfast, friendly staff!

Location, Location, Location. All tourist sights were within easy walking. Restaurants & mini markets outside the door. 1 block from main tourist street. Free wi-fi in room.

TV was small & could only be watched from bed. No chairs. Nowhere to set up computer. Low water pressure.

Tan Hotel is ideal for a short leisure break in Istanbul's old city area. It is very close to the main attractions and provides an excellent and substantial breakfast (included in the room charge) to set you up for the day. The Tan's smallness gives it a feeling of being a bit exclusive. There are numerous restaurants of varying types and qualities to choose from nearby. The Tan's staff are courteous and helpful, with adequate English for tourists from English speaking countries. For visitors who take the Metro/Tram option to get from the airport, the Tan is only 100 metres or so from the Sultanahmet tram stop. I would happily make the Tan my first choice if and when next visiting Istanbul.

Room door locks of poor quality. In the case of my room (105) it was difficult to use the key. This let down the otherwise good quality fittings throughout the building.

Great location. Lovely terrace for breakfast or just relaxing during the day. Good wifi access plus laptop in lobby for guest use.

The hotel is located in the very heart of the historical part of Istanbul. It's 5 min walk to the Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet) and Aya Sofia, Topcapi is 10 min walk from the hotel. Small picturesque streets around the Tan Hotel are packed with restaurants and cafes for a good dinner or just a cup of cay (tea). The area is safe and comfortable for walking. Tram stop is just 3 min from the hotel (if you wish to go to the modern European part of Istanbul to Taksim square, or visit Grand Bazar, or go for shopping). Personnel is very friendly, hotel itself is small and quite. Breakfast is served on the last floor with a terrace overlooking Sultanahmet and Sofia. You can book excursions at the hotel and pay for them after to the travel agency - we went for a boat trip in Bosporus. Ataturk airport is 25 min drive in the morning.

We stayed in 5 hotels during our trip to Tureky in different cities and Tan Hotel was the most expensive one though it has no pool, no spa, no territory and the breakfast is rather modest. We picked it for location and think it was a good choice. As the hotel is located close to the Blue Mosque and some smaller mosques in the district be prepared for the calls to service by muezzins 5 times a day.

Excellent views from the roof top terrace over the old city. Location was perfect, right in amongst the old city and all major attractions easily within walking distance. The room was very modern and was clean and tidy with a spa bath and plenty of toiletries etc. The reception staff and breakfast waiters were very friendly and polite, always able to give local advice and help. Great Breakfast with fresh orange juice made to order and a wide variety of cold meats/ cheeses & cereals. We'd definitely stay here again.

Its very close proximity to the best tourist spots in Istanbul ie. Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, 7mins walk to Grand Bazzar, cafes & restaurant and Sultanahmet tram station is less than 1 min walk down from the hotel entrance. But yet we find this hotel is peaceful & quite.
