Ali and Tarkan were incredible hosts and their hotel was perfectly situated for our visit to Istanbul. Walking distance to all of the main attractions and the breakfast was lovely. Ali went out of his way to provide an earlier breakfast on our last day which was just a small example of his and Tarkan’s commitment to a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

The owners, two very friendly Dutch brothers, were so welcoming and helpful from the first minute we arrived until we left. They made us feel we stayed in a private home as opposed to a hotel. The area felt very safe, just a few minutes walk from the Blue Mosque, restaurants and shopping. Will definitely recommend to others.

My wife and I recently traveled to the this spectacularly crossroads city of Istanbul. As seasoned global travelers, the lodging experience at the boutique Bram Hotel was delightful and stimulating situated near the heartbeat of the city highlighting the Hagia Sophia, Sultanahmet (Blue) Mosque, and Topkapi Palace. The host caretakers, Tarkan and Ali, provide a unique and enhanced travel experience which is sure to please your mind and soul. We highly recommend this moderately priced hotel for its unique value and charm. The hotel’s interior was recently modernized with world-class amenities while its building exterior retains its UNESCO protected designation. The hosts genuinely care about your stay, love their home country, and exceed your travel expectations as you immerse yourself in the history, culture, shopping creating lifelong memories. Safe travels and wishing you much travel success.

I loved staying at Bram Hotel because of the friendly and caring way the brothers treated you. They are genuinely great people. They go out of their way explain everything to you. They offer suggestions and arrange transportation and Turkish bath for you. The room was very clean and comfortable. Bathroom and shower was spacious and great water pressure. Breakfast was delicious. Turkish Airlines canceled my ticket to Nevsehir and i had no hotel booked, they stepped in and help. I greater appreciate your kindness and understanding. I fully recommend Bram Hotel as the only place to stay in Istanbul. Thank you

I’ve never loved a hotel so much! Words can’t do this hotel justice. I brought my parents with me and we all felt at home. Super comfy bed, room, terrace, and cafe. Quiet, perfect location, and amazing view. The service provided by the two brothers/owners Ali & Tarkan is unparalleled. I texted Ali before and throughout our trip with questions, concerns, and requests. He didn’t just respond immediately, but it was fun, like talking to a friend. They never sleep or leave the hotel. Like magic, they are always available. We loved the brothers & the hotel. We genuinely invited them over to our home by the end of the trip. They are the nicest, friendliest, and most welcoming people we’ve ever met. Thank you both for making our trip so memorable. I’m very sad to leave Bram and pray to return one day.

This small hotel felt like home the minute we stepped in. The owners/managers (ally and his brother) really go out of their ways to make you feel welcomed. What an unexpected pleasant surprise when we opened the door to our room! What we discovered was a well appointed, decent size, clean, modern and very comfortable room. Breakfast was an other pleasant and delicious surprise. The owners acted as our private concierge making recommendations, making reservations, arranging transportation, making sure that we visited the best of Istanbul during our stay. The terrace overlooking the bay was fantastic. Location in the historical area was another plus. I definitely highly recommend the RAM Hotel

This hotel is fantastic. First of all the location - it is right near the old wall of the Hippodrome, and very close to some of the major tourist sites near Sultanahmet Square such as the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace. I walked to all and the Grand Bazaar. The owners are two brothers who were so welcoming and helpful in planning my tour of Istanbul. The room was small but well appointed and so clean. I used the rooftop to write emails and loved the view (and was shown how to use the lights, etc). Finally, the breakfast was also delicious. Real value for the low price. And they arranged an airport transfer too when I left. I hope to go back soon!
