Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I traveled to Istanbul for our anniversary recently. From the time we were picked up from the airport, until the time we left. The stat was amazing. We loved the room and the amenities, along with the wonderful food the hotel had to offer. We were able to easily walk around and the central location made it that much easier. The staff were friendly and very welcoming. We will definitely stay here again, when we come back."
