Aleph Hotel Istanbul

Perfect location. This hotel is great to explore the city. Tourist accomodation, nothing special, just a place where to have a shower and relax after long wallks in Istanbul. Good value for money.

Very basic breakfast. Some members of the reception staff did not speak English.

Extremely close to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque and many other museums and attractions in Sultanahmet area. Also close to public transport, restaurants, groceries etc. Good value for money as it was really cheap for four nights.

Part of the staff was pretty rude. We asked for a blanket (as there was nothing in the bedroom) and they said they didn't have, so we had to turn on the heating unnecessarily. Our bedroom was on ground floor so it was quite noisy all the time (including the evening). Despite being close to main attractions, this location is a bit isolated from the rest of the city.

Manager and kitchen staff was nice.

Bath room was very small. In shower you cannot move your arms freely. Bed was in awkward position, One could only get in bed from foot end. (Very small room). If you have luggage then you will be in big trouble as there are no elevators. Moreover hotel is located at the end of a steep street and moving uphill with a luggage is a tough task. Wifi is only accessible when you are in lobby. No wi-fi signals in room.
