“Warm welcome awaits..........”

We received a warm, friendly welcome at this small but traditional hotel. It has the feel of a family run hotel as with just 16 rooms there was not a constant change of staff faces. The staff are mostly English speaking which is a bonus if you don't speak any Turkish! Set in the centre of all the main attractions in the "old part" of the city, the view of the Blue Mosque from the roof terrace is beautiful especially at night. Lots of restaurants nearby but the food is good at The Sarnic too.

“Excellent base for exploring Istanbul”

The Sarnic hotel was truly lovely, extremely clean and comfortable - an ideal base for exploring Istanbul. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is literally 2 minutes walk from the Hippodrome and the Blue Mosque.....the 05:50 call to prayer from the mosque can sometimes be an unwelcome experience!!!

“Great location, calm atmosphere, polite and helpful staff”

The Sarnic is a great small hotel. The location, minutes from the main sites of interest in Istanbul, is quiet - apart from the inevitable muezzin call at five in the morning, but that's part of the atmosphere. Breakfast is a comprehensive and well-stocked buffet. No lift but helpful front-of-house staff. Ideal for my family of four who wanted a comfortable and characterful small hotel with a local feel rather than an anonymous 'could be anywhere' corporate monstrosity. We didn't try the roof-top dining, mainly because there is such an overwhelming choice of places to eat nearbye.

“Sarnic Hotel”

I was very impressed by the friendliness of the hotel staff. The room itself although was small was very comfortable and cosy. All the major attractions in Sultanahmet were a walking distance from the hotel, which meant I saved alot of money on taxi fares. If I go back to Istanbul, I would definatly stay at the Sarnic again

“made so welcome”

the staff at this hotel went out of their way to make us so welcome. they were always on hand to make bookings and arrangements for us and answer any questions. the room was quiet, comfortable,clean and with excellent plumbing! the mini bar was well stocked with lots of extra treats. breakfast on the roof top was varied with some wonderful home cooked pastries and jams.

“Sarnic good choice”

great location, clean and large rooms. a bit noisy due to street traffic but didn't detract from a very pleasant experience.

“Sarnic Hotel”

A very helpful and friendly hotel in a superb location. A very good breakfast selection in a basement location shared with Sarnic Premier but light and looking onto the garden. Although early in the season it was good to escape to the roof terrace with remarkable views of Sultan Ahmet and over the sea of Maramara.

“A Great Spot in Istanbul”

This is a small hotel close to the major tourist sites in Istanbul. In fact, they upgraded our room to one with a view of the Blue Mosque. The staff were very helpful at arranging tours and activities (e.g., a dinner and show with transportation to and from the restaurant). The manager, Mehmet, was especially helpful, and most other staff spoke pretty good English. The breakfast was included and was quite good. The room was comfortable but you could hear some noise from the adjacent room, and there was an odor that we think came from the shower drain. I think their standard posted rates were high, but we paid a lot less off-season thru Expedia. BTW, there is also a restaurant named Sarnic but it is not part of the hotel.

“Thanks for everything... Sarnic Hotel was great with their friendly and professional staff”

If you want to visit Istanbul's historical places, museums and bosphorus... You must book in Sarnic Hotel. I was there for five days and everything was great. Room was cleaning daily and breakfast was very good and location was best for all... Thank you for everything. I hope that, see you again.

“Small and Friendly”

A lovely small hotel where you get to know all the quests. Also well renowed for its Turkish cooking courses. While not in central Sultanmehet it is just a short walk to the Aya Sophia and Blue Mosque is just behind the hotel.
