    During my Christmas stay, I really liked the spacious and comfortable rooms at the hotel. It was a pleasant surprise to find that the rooms were larger than expected. Additionally, the hotel's excellent location in the heart of the city allowed for easy access to all the main tourist attractions. This made exploring the city during my stay extremely convenient. Lastly, the staff at the hotel were very efficient and helpful, providing great guidance and recommendations during my stay.

    In terms of negative aspects, the only downside was that the rooms were a bit small. However, considering the overall value for money, this was a minor inconvenience.

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a hotel in Istanbul that exceeded all my expectations. The hotel's location was perfect - just a slight slope away from Sultanahmet Square, making it convenient for exploring all the main tourist attractions. The room was comfortable and had a double bed with a small bathroom, but what really impressed me was the view from the room. It had a nice view of the city that added an extra touch to my stay. The breakfast served on the rooftop was simply amazing, with incredible views that made me want to stay there all day. The staff were also extremely friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. They offered great advice on how to navigate the city and were always available to assist me in any way they could. Without a doubt, this hotel offers great value for money and attention to detail.

    All in all, my experience at the hotel was absolutely fantastic!

    The location of the hotel is fantastic, within walking distance to the main attractions in the city. You can easily explore the Sultanahmet area and visit iconic places like the Blue Mosque and Ayasofia. The hotel is conveniently located close to the touristic attractions, making it easy to get around and explore the city.

    The windows of the hotel have no sound insulation, so some noise from outside can be heard.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the historical center of the city. The location was ideal, just a short walk away from the main tourist attractions and the tram line. The hotel was also situated next to a beautiful mosque, adding to the charm of the area. We particularly enjoyed the breathtaking view from the rooftop terrace, which was one of the best features of the hotel.

    Nothing at all.

    Great location, within walking distance to main tourist attractions. The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. They even arranged a special tour for us when our original plans fell through. The rooms, though small, were always clean. The breakfast provided was delicious with a variety of fresh fruits. I would highly recommend Dara Old City Hotel for your stay in Istanbul.
