Top Eminönü Hotel Reviews

Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

8/10 Good

"You couldn't ask for a better location! It's less than 10 minutes on foot to Sultanahmet, and surrounded by amazing kebab spots just a minute or two away. Having the T1 tram station so close by made getting around super easy."

Elysian Airport Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Good, inexpensive option to stay close to the airport. They can book you a shuttle to the airport, but Bolt, Uber, or Yandex will be cheaper. Breakfast is offered from 7 am, but it is too late for a red eye flight. We will book again in a couple of weeks when traveling back home via Istanbul."
