My wife and I stayed at the Tulip for 11 days on what was a mix of a work and leisure trip. The location is a small quaint boutique guesthouse with the two friendliest and kindest hosts I’ve ever stayed with. The location is excellent with the Hagia Sophia being a ten minute walk away. For any help in arranging taxis or information on tours and activities just contact Ahmed at the front desk. Have never known anyone to be more helpful. The family running the hotel gives a lot of importance to cleanliness which was a major concern for me before travelling to Istanbul. But I was more than satisfied with how diligently they cleaned and maintained the place. Hot water was always easily and readily available. Would fully recommend this hotel to all those wanting to visit Istanbul and getting a taste of the old city.

The staff was so helpful! Not only with our questions about transfers etc. But also with advice to where to go and what to eat. The location is also excellent, very close to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern etc.

The best welcome at the hotel a person could ask for! It was my very first time in Istanbul and after long journey they first invited me to sit, drink some Turkish tea and tell something about myself. What a lovely stuff, a place the people want to come back to. Everything what's needed in the room is provided. Excellent price and location. See you next time! PS also jewellery shop in front of the hotel lobby is simply amazing.
