The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. I was in a 6-bed dorm for women and actually made lovely new friends with whom I will definitely keep in touch. My stuff was perfectly safe and I got to use the internet every day without having to wait an age. Meeting and interacting with other guests in the restaurant was fun. It was like a home stay - nice to get back to a warm smile and a greeting after spending a tiring day out sight-seeing. If I ever return to Istanbul, I wouldn't consider staying anywhere other than the Sultan Hostel once again!

It is in a fantastic location, nice clean dorm, good facilities - free wifi, towels, lockers etc. The breakfast was about as budget as it gets but the food was actually pretty good otherwise.

What a view! The double en-suite we had had two walls of view - one looking out to sea and the Princes Islands and one looking out over Sultanahmet - beautiful! You can have this view from the Terrace bar as well - but we felt very lucky to enjoy it from bed. The lady on the the desk (sorry I don't remember your name!) during the day time was so helpful, always smiling and always ready to help, her other colleagues and the bar staff were very helpful too! It was the best of both worlds - we are on honeymoon, so wanted a clean, private room but also wanted to make friends, which was easy enough over breakfast or up on the terrace. Lush. Can't wait to come back. Easy walking distance from train station (though a tram saves some time) and so nice to be so close to all the ancient sites.

Brilliant place if you want to be social and have a good night out. A water pipe on that roof top bar is a must!

Nice staff who clearly enjoy their job and are very helpful. You can pop back from town dead easy if it gets too hot or whatever, there are plenty of showers.

the location was great, but the bar at the top roof was not so fun (not many people) also the view from the terrace is spoiled by another terrace and some plastic fencing (some things stand in your way in order to have a full view) people were really helpfull, never saw better breakfast was a bit poor if i compare it with other hostels and with the Turkish breakfast i know from real Turkish people
