We had a lovely stay in this hotel. We really enjoyed the cleanliness and the room was fabulous. We had a balcony off of our room and felt well taken care of by the staff. The breakfast is delicious and it’s a great location to walk to many of the popular sites.

We stayed here from August 12 to 20 and have loved it here as it is perfectly located in the heart of Sultanahmet. Everything you need including supermarket is here at close proximity. Yunus was great with us. The family connected rooms was fantastic as well. We rebooked this hotel for the last 9 days of this month hoping for even a better experience. Another review to come soon.

This is the fourth time I am staying at this hotel. The hotel is centrally located in the historic district, Sultanahmet within walking distance to several historic sites and restaurants and businesses. The hotel is very well maintained and the staff is most helpful. The hotel also has its own Hamam and offers a free buffet breakfast. The rooms are clean and updated with new amenities. Highly recommended.

Just arrived back staying at the Golden Royal Hotel for 5 nights. Prior to booking this hotel I did do a lot of research into which hotel to stay in and going by the reviews, this hotel had the better reviews so went for this. It was no doubt, the right choice. Upon arrival the Porter was out straight away and got our luggage straight into the hotel from the Taxi. At reception we were greeted by Erwin. as there were 3 rooms we had booked, these were on 3 different floors but at my request Erwin managed to somehow get us all on the same floor even though the hotel was quite full. Erwin was very professional and gave us all the information we required. The next day at the reception we also met Yunus and Celsi. Yunus was a very helpful, funny guy, had a good laugh with him. Celsi was a very kind and helpful lady, always ready to help, she also let me use her personal phone to make calls! I think she was more on the management side. The 2 Porters were very helpful, one of them named Ibrahim. The rooms were very clean and cleaned everyday, Tea/coffee/water bottles were complementary, A/C worked as it should, Hot water, shower were spot on. Hair dryer and all the soaps were provided. Breakfast (buffet) was too good, so much choice and very tasty. The Hotel is in Sultanahmet area (Faith), very lively and busy area where you cant get bored, food, shopping, sight seeing, boat cruises all within nominal walking distance. Top Hotel, Top Staff, Full Marks! Thank you. .
