Great balcony with sea view and a surprisingly good breakfast. Plenty of restaurants close by and a short walk to the centre of old town. The place overall needs a little TLC. ##### Greg Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nafiz Imtiaz Sep 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a good stay at Artefes Hotel in Istanbul. The hotel is very well located, within walking distance of the main historic sites. The staff were kind and helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was decent for the price, and the rooftop terrace offered a pleasant view of the city. While the shower area felt a little tight and some amenities could be improved, the overall experience was positive. A solid choice for travelers looking for comfort and value in the old city. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dbadb9bc-a562-4a1f-9ffd-b52408af920a-1757195320674.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/75b212f7-5a0c-43a0-bb18-7714ff894b6c-1757195321204.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0a5b6d91-55d4-4f95-b285-d8dc5afa5668-1757195321027.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3c0c591e-7125-44a2-b206-d5e9d0697a7b-1757195317880.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nafiz Imtiaz Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fernando Apr 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Friendly staff, amazing location for all the tourist places ##### Fernando Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Trang May 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location near by tourist attractions, room clean, have Elevator , staff friendly and helpful ,hotel pickup very good.

Our stay at Artefes Hotel in Istanbul was absolutely exceptional in every way! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional, ensuring every aspect of our visit was flawless. Upon check-in, the receptionist handed us a detailed guidebook with information about the city’s top attractions, which was incredibly helpful for planning our days. Throughout our stay, they consistently shared fascinating insights about Turkish culture and the local language, making our experience even more enriching. The hotel’s services were impeccable, with every detail handled with excellence. From the clean and comfortable rooms to the delicious breakfast, everything exceeded our expectations. When we return to Istanbul, there’s no doubt we’ll be staying at this Hotel again. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an outstanding experience in the heart of the old city! ##### KALEBE HENRIQUE Stayed 10 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrea Jul 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Overall, I was happy with my stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the location was great and the free breakfast with a view was a plus. Three areas of improvement: I wouldn’t liked to have had a light blanket provided instead of just a sheet. The above shower head didn’t work and the handheld shower piece didn’t fit into the holder, so I had to either hold it with one hand and wash my hair with the other, or try to balance it so I could use two hands to wash my hair, but then it would always fall. Also, the TV didn’t work. I would’ve liked to have caught up on some news. ##### Andrea Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Babar Oct 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Some staff extremely polite, while a few rude. Breakfast hours were 8-10 am. I finished my breakfast at 10 am and went to get coffee. The staff shut the coffee machine. I asked him to let me have the coffee. His response was “we close at 10”. I told him that it’s not I was asking them to brew a fresh carafe, it’s just a machine that dispenses instant coffee. But he was inflexible and rude. Other staff was polite. They helped us putting our suitcases in our ride ##### Babar Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maureen Sep 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities Bed comfortable, shower broken, cupboards broken, safe broken.

The only positive thing was its location — close to the sea and tourist sites in Sultanahmet. Everything else was truly disappointing. The breakfast was terrible. Every single day, it was exactly the same poor-quality items. Since we couldn’t eat boiled eggs, we asked for an omelet or fried eggs, but they rudely said “we don’t have that.” The bread was dry, and some vegetables were clearly spoiled. When we complained, the staff replied, “Well, you didn’t pay for breakfast,” which was absolutely false — we had booked a room with breakfast. The room was tiny, awkwardly designed, and the TV was mounted sideways, not even facing the bed. It was hard to move around the room without hitting the walls or the shower. The elevator was also extremely small — just for one person. There was no real lobby — nowhere to sit, relax, or have a coffee or tea after coming in from outside. The customer service was weak and the staff had a cold and uninterested attitude. It didn’t feel like hospitality at all. Overall, I deeply regret choosing this hotel. It’s nothing like what they advertise and I would not recommend it to anyone Abbas Naserbakht ##### Abbas Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shruti Jun 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Was here for a day...but seems like for a long time.
