Room was great, breakfast is good and service without flaw but you really want to go there for the location and rooftop terrace. 3 minutes of walking from Sultanahmet and lot of restaurants. View from the rooftop is stunning and it is great to watch sunset from there. Also plenty of cute cats all around.

Book it!

Not usually someone who write reviews, but Rumours deserves it! Great location for Sultanahmet sights, nice spacious room (we had a triple), fantastic Turkish breakfast, and staff that went above and beyond to help when my bag was late arriving after it was left behind by my airline. Would whole-heartedly recommend! I do a lot of research when booking accommodations so I hope this can help others coming to Istanbul!
