“Great location in Istanbul, Sultanahmet neighborhood”

I didn't spend a lot of time in my room, so it was perfect for meeting the basic necessities. It was in a great location within the neighborhood of Sultanahmet, I could go out and explore and easily stop back to drop off or pick up anything I needed throughout the day. The staff were great, and the location really was perfect for anyone interested in exporing the wealth of history and culture of the neigborhood. Plus, it was a quick walk to the train if you don't want to do an excessive amount of walking to other neighborhoods (I personally love to walk, and made my way on foot as far north as Galata hill).

“Great for sightseeing”

The hotel couldn't have been in a better location for visiting all the sights on foot. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and the view from the breakfast room was breathtaking. The rooms were clean and comfortable and we were given fresh towels every day.

“Wonderful Place to Stay”

Hotel Spectra and their staff were WONDERFUL!!! They treated us like we were a member of their family. Everyone on their staff was kind, friendly and helpful. If we're ever back in Istanbul, we will be staying at Hotel Spectra again.

“Wonfer Hotel in Wonderful Location”

My wife and I loved the Hotel Spectra. We found the rooms to be comfortable, the hotel staff exceptionally helpful, and the location to be perfect. We plan to go back as soon as we can for another stay. The locations is in the Sultanahment area, not far from the tramway line. It was easy to get to from the main bus station, which is how we arraived. There are shuddles from the airport too. The owner is a retired professor of physics who speaks English perfectly. The hotel staff had great restaraunt recommndations. The breakfasts were lovely, especially sitting on the enlosed roof terrace overlooking the Blue Mosque. I recommend this hotel highly.

“Great location & great staff.”

Most things about this hotel were as we expected. It is a 3-Star hotel and as such we thought it was great value for money. The location is fantastic, being in a small street just a few yards from the Blue Mosque and therefore within easy walking distance off all the sites in the Sultahmet area. With the tram stop so close as well it was easy to get to other areas including north of the Golden Horn. One of our rooms looked a little tied and ready for renewal but everything else was very good. The breakfast was fantastic, and the view while eating unbeatable. All the staff, from cleaners to manager, were extremely friendly and helpful. We would certainly go there again.

“A Gem in the Historic District”

This small well maintained hotel was located in the district of Sultanamet within walking distance of the Blue Mosque,Haggia Sophia and a number of other tourist attractions.The staff were friendly,helpful,and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable.Rooms were clean and the morning breakfast was excellent.I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting reasonable accomodations in this area.

“Great place, awesome breakfast.”

Have just returned from staying 5 nights in Hotel Spectra in Istanbul. Although I didn't spend much time within the hotel I found the staff very friendly and talkative, the room was well furnished and clean, and the breakfast was brilliant with a wonderful view. If I ever return to Istanbul I will definitely choose to stay at Spectra again.

“Great location, small and friendly”

Just got back from celebrating our 1st year anniversary in Istanbul. This is a great place to stay because it is literally located in the Hippodrome. Many attractions are within 5 minutes walking distance. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeble. Definitely recommended!!

“Istanbul is Great!!!”

Hotel was superb and they were fitting double glazing while we were there so the noise from traffic and mosques was greatly reduced. It is a very vibrant city with lots of history and amazing places to see. The people are very friendly and the food is great. If you want a different holiday then go to Istanbul.

“Very nice hotel”

- Nice hotel, very well located in the heart of the old city. - Quiet room, even with the street. - Good breakfast with nice views. - Good service.
