-Beautiful rooms, 10/10 staff, breakfast is amazing, quiet enough, very safe area and building.
CanadaThe room was comfortable, not huge but it had more than enough space and the bed was great. Breakfast was great and the location for getting around old town was perfect. I really liked chilling out on the roof as the sun set and having a few drinks even though it was still quite cold. Last but not least, the staff were great - really friendly, accommodating and always willing to help in any way they could.
AustriaThe location was really good, close to many attractions. The hotel is kinda small but very clean and quite with good breakfast. The best thing about this hotel is the stuff!
KyrgyzstanGreat location and the service, food and atmosphere was excellent!
MoldovaEverything was perfect. The staff was great and very helpful and the breakfast was perfect.
GreeceClose to all attractions of the area. Front desk staff were extremely knowledgeable of things to do and recommendations, and very pleasant. A quaint hotel and very cozy feel. Breakfast was so personalized, Hüsnü is so accommodating and ready to help. Felt like we were leaving family on our check out
United Arab EmiratesSmall yes, but thoughtfully planned and decorated. Everything you need for a visit to Istanbul. You can walk everywhere in Sultanahmet from here and I highly recommend the location. The staff was helpful with advice, taxis, etc. Breakfast was included and each day a homemade dessert/treat was provided to our room - a nice touch (even though I couldn’t eat it because I have food allergies). The bathrooms have a swinging glass door which you can hear through and sort of see through too. If you are sharing your room and will want privacy for going to toilet, you’ll need to use the bathroom on the top or bottom floors. All in all I would recommend Miniature Hotel and I will stay there again if I return to Sultanahmet Istanbul!
QatarThis hotel has a very small entry and lobby so it hides what it really offers. The room we had was beautiful, extremely clean and the size was perfect. They are very modern and functional. It has a great breakfast buffet with and extra service for any particular thing that you would like. The staff on the front desk is simply sensational. My wife forgot a hat (of no real value) and they bothered to WhatsUp me and offer ways to send it to me while I was on my way to Rome. The location was also perfect. In the old area and just a few blocks away of the biggest attractions and places to eat. Overall experience: Perfect!
United States of AmericaStaff is very friendly and helpful, Hotel’s interior is very nice, very close to Aya Sofia and other touristic places liked to stay in this hotel very much
IrelandThe staff is very friendly and very kind!!! They made our stay there very special, especially since they surprised us on our daughter's first birthday with a lovely cake at breakfast! Also the location of the hotel is near all the sights and the grand bazaar, and the neighborhood is very quiet! Actually the whole hotel is very quiet and you can't hear a thing, so you can really relax after a long day of walking around the city. Finally the decor is very modern, the rooms are new and very clean, and the breakfast is amazing! You get free local sweets and water every day which is an extra bonus. We would definitely stay there again and recommend this place to anyone travelling to Istanbul.
