Where can I start! I have visited Istanbul 4 times, this is by far the best hotel experience that I've had. The location is perfect a stones drop away from The Blue Mosque and importantly no steep hill to walk. The staff were extremely accommodating and empathetic. Made you feel like you've been there many times before. Room cleaning was daily without fail, new towels, bottles water. The breakfast was good with hot and cold food options. Will of course be staying that for my next Istanbul trip.

The hotel is in an amazing location just 20 seconds from the Blue Mosque. The location made it easy to get to all the attractions easily. The hotel is small and slightly tired but the rooms were very nice, clean and had air conditioning. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, they arranged transfers, checked train times, gave directions, organised trips etc, all with a smile. Overall the hotel and service was awesome.

It is a really good hotel right in the middle of Laleli, just a walk from Grand Bazaar.It was clean, spacious and well maintained although not very easy to get there first time: had to walk steep down the cobblestone street with a suitcase. I didnā€™t know I could request them to pick me up when I arrived but they have a special cart for transporting their guests up and down the hill. I really enjoyed the buffet breakfast provided in a nearby sister hotel. On the way back the staff has kindly brought me close to my station since the trams broke that day. The only thing that could improve my stay would be having some amenities like toothbrush and toothpaste.

My experience was an utter shambles. I was originally relocated to another hotel on arrival where I stayed for two days. The hotel management then had space to accommodate me and return to this hotel. I had a room where you could hear all the running water so made for poor sleep. Additional there was water coming down from the ceiling in the bathroom when it it rained.

We highly recommend this hotel. We were upgraded to a family suite which was a large room. The breakfast included was excellent. The staff were very helpful and informative. We had dinner there one night and throughly enjoyed it. Being a family run hotel, it was homely. Spectra Hotel is next to Sultanahmet Square which is walkable to everything. Surprisingly it was a quiet area at night for sleeping.
