Art City Hotel Istanbul

Nice, clean, located near many attractions. Comfortable room, very friendly and helpful staff. Once I actually found the place, getting around was really easy. Great breakfast too! Next to impossible to find make sure to have a good map/gps handy or a knowledgeable cab driver They forgot to book my airport shuttle, which meant a bit of a panic to get to the airport, it ended up not being a problem, but be sure to double check that they booked for you. Got locked out of the main lobby....if you want to wander the city late night, be prepared to have the overnight guy sleeping. Luckily, I was able to call the front desk to wake him up and he was sleep on a couch in the lobby.

The hotel staff was friendly and mostly helpful.I liked very much the rich breakfast buffet.

Great view from the room!

The staff were extremely helpful, organising and booking trips, letting us use their computer to confirm our flight, and setting up restaurant reservations.At all times, they were corteous and charming. The hotel is really less than ten minutes from the Blue Mosque just as it says in the brochure (often these things are exaggerated) Although it is very centrally located I missed out that the old part of the city is on a hill so we had to climb a very steep slope every time we went to the centre. I only mention this as anyone with heart or knee problems would find it very hard. Although we moaned a bit each time,it was OK and would beno problem for young/fit people
