“switched after one night”

the regular room was extremely small, the AC was hardly working, no safe box, the view was the dingy roof and wall of another building. when I first arrived, the guy at the counter tried to move me to a different hotel for one night, and then when I declined, he became cold and unfriendly. I asked someone else if they had a better room, and they said not tonight, but I should check back tomorrow to see if a larger and more expensive room was available. But instead I decided to find another hotel. The following morning, I went to checkout and the initial cold guy said he had to "talk to me". He told me that because they had cleared someone out to switch me into a more expensive room, they would have to charge me for a 2nd night too. I complained and said Expedia would talk to them for me. He said it didn't matter, I would have to pay 2 nights. I said whatever and walked out. And thanks to Expedia, I was able to get my money back for the other nights and only had to pay one. For a slightly higher price, I was able to get a bigger, cleaner, beautiful room at the Ferman Hotel.

Area recommendations
Sultahnahmet was nice. And it was just a short ride away to the new city area. If you're willing to spend more, the new city hotels along the Bosphorous coast are really nice.

“Pretty Impressive Hotel.”

The hotel is ideally located, safe, within walking distance to the major attractions, restaurants and the tram line, which connects you to the Istanbul Airport for a mere 1.75 Turkish Lire. The tram line can also take you to other areas of Istanbul, including the ports, Takshim square, and other tourist areas. The daily breakfast that the hotel provides is a definite highlight of the trip.

“We Hope to Some Day Stay There Again”

We chose this hotel for its great location. It's in the middle of the old city, two blocks from Hagia Sophia and the blue mosque. We walked to the topkapi palace and the grand bazaar. It is in the midst of little shops and sidewalk cafes. It's a wonderful two-hundred year old building comprised of 3 structures. It is not swank and modern but is most comfortable with antique rugs and unique furniture. Rooms seemed to be different sizes and ours was somewhat small but functional. The shower did not leak over the floor and the bathroom had great shelving for toiletries. Buffet breakfast was included and was excellent. The staff were most helpful, from loaning us an umbrella to finding us a good travel agent to help set up the rest of our Turkey travels. We thought there was a shuttle from the airport but there was not so you should have the hotel address to give the taxi driver! The hotel staff will arrange a car if you email them ahead of time.

Area recommendations
I like the old city as it has great atmosphere.
