The included buffet breakfast in the rooftop terrace was amazing! We especially loved the beet and yogurt salad (just try it!) and the carrot, cabbage and dill salad. Not normally something we'd eat for breakfast but the food and experience was spectacular!! The rooms had a beautiful Turkish feel and look. We enjoyed our cozy room and bed and the service throughout was fantastic 😀
I had an excellent stay at Hotel Saruhan in Istanbul. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff went above and beyond—especially in arranging a fantastic cruise trip. The terrace breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options and stunning views of the city and sea. Perfect location near major attractions and truly outstanding service. Highly recommended!
This is a wonderful hotel. Very family friendly. All the workers are very nice. Their breakfast is great. Farrahudin along with his coworkers at the front desk were all very kind and professional.
Property location is extremely convenient and staff is extremely hospitable. Accommodated our special requests, from driver to and from the airport, laundry & Turkish bath recommendations.
Don’t let this little older hotel put you off, it is a gem. The rooms, though older, are spacious and spotless. The staff were amazing the whole stay. You can beat the breakfast, the woman that puts it out works very hard to ensure all leave full. A bonus is the coffee and tea they provide in the breakfast room anytime of day. Would definitely stay there again.
Great people and helpful staff been great time with them 5 star

We had a good stay at Saruhan, the breakfast and view from terrace were both amazing. The only drawback is that we were given a below ground floor room, and it was filled with ants once we were settled in and ate some snack/wine.. the ants would gather around our cups and wine bottle and clothes and that was very annoying. It would be nice if were given a room on the upper floors instead as there is a large swing in the bottom floor, just for us in our balcony/garden area but we never used it since there is no privacy there.
Very friendly personnel. Nice location a bit outside the tourism stream.

Very close to the blue mosque area in the heart of sultanahmet. Many affordable diners in the area. There is a nice park in front of the hotel. The staff are excellent and very friendly and helpful. Coffee is available until 11 pm. The staff lady in the kitchen is super sweet and helpful. Rooms are very clean. The hotel face may need a touch up.

Good location within 15-20 mins of walking distance to watch all key tourist points around Sultanahmet area.
Saruhan Hotel is charming, friendly, very comfiortable, with real local character. The roof terrace is gorgeous, the breakfast (on terrace) is splendid. Our room with park/sea view was perfect. Historic sites are a comfortable walking distance, and local eating is good (with hotel's advice). We will definitely stay again on our next trip.
Hotel location is amazing, at walking distance of main interests. Staff is very friendly and service is great. Breakfast is very good! Amazing choice :)
This place feels like home with amazing views.
Home made breakfast was comforting and delicious, the terrace is open all day long with coffee and tea is a pleasant bonus!
Hotel staff is friendly and helpful beyond the call of duty.
Breakfast area on top floor, on terrace with sea view is unique, food is excellent, and breakfast time rise this hotel far above my expectations.
