In the perfect location if it’s your first time coming to Istanbul, so close to all attractions. Service really good and the hotel cleaned to a high standard. We didn’t check out the pool Would stay here again

After a heavy rainfall the shower did eject some brown water, it only happened the once and we didint notify the staff as it wasn’t a big issue.

Perfect location bang in the middle of the old city. Major sites round the corner, and there's even an attraction just outside the hotel ("Cistern of Theodosius" - with a light show). Lobby area is spacious and updated. Check in experience was good, with informative introduction to the city and provision of options. Complimentary big bottle of water in the room. Mini-bar also with reasonable prices. We had a twin room, and the hotel offered an additional small bed for a child. Good value for the price paid. There is a terrace at the top with a bit of a view, but there was nobody there when we went. It was too hot a day for anyone to be there but there are chairs and tables. Spa area has showers and changing room with lockers, so it is secure.

The room is a little bit dated. The breakfast was not to our liking - appeared to be a lot of choices but not quite the quality. Could not really eat much of what was on offering. Pool was cold and is small if you actually wanted to really swim. The hamam, steam room and sauna were not heated at the time we went down, and i suppose if we had asked at reception, someone would eventually come to turn on. However, I would have expected these to be on so that guests don't need to waste time or come back later to use something that should be permanently on. The overall spa area on the lower ground floor was unattended, so we couldn't ask for help.

location was nice and the staff was very helpful and accommodating. property was also very clean.

the AC in the rooms is not the best, but it was not terrible. manageable temperatures.

I really liked the hotel’s location. It is just a 2-5 minute walk from the tram, Hagia Sophia, and the Grand Bazaar, with everything you need conveniently nearby, including the tram for easy transportation. The staff were also amazing—some of the kindest and most wonderful people I’ve met during my travels. They were incredibly attentive, friendly, and always willing to help with anything you need. Additionally, the rooms were cleaned and tidied every day, and they were quite clean. There was also a kettle with tea and coffee available, as well as towels, soap, shampoo, shower gel, and slippers, which added to the overall comfort.

The hotel is slightly outdated compared to the photos, and my initial impression upon entering the room wasn’t great. I would have preferred softer mattresses and pillows for a more comfortable stay. Although the breakfast had everything you might expect or want, I would suggest adding a bit more variety to the menu. Additionally, there were no bathrobes or toothbrushes provided in the room, which would have been a nice addition.

Cleanness, staff cooperation, location , breakfast buffet

The rooms are ver small… but this could be a general observation in most of the hotels in this location !!

My family and I stayed for 5 nights at this hotel. The staff were very helpful, kind, and friendly. The Turkish breakfast was great, and they varied part of the breakfast each day, such as the omelet or fried eggs and different types of cakes, so it didn't become boring to have breakfast there every day. All the rooms were generally clean and comfortable, but some were bigger than others and had a view of the street, which was nicer. We used the pool and sauna almost every day. Although the pool was not very big, it was very clean and great for entertaining our kids. If the sauna is off, you should ask the staff to turn it on for you. However, it would have been better if the pool and sauna hours were longer. The rooftop terrace was also very nice, with a view over the sea and city. In general, we had a very pleasant stay at this hotel, and I highly recommend it.

The hotel facilities are as one would expect but there are a couple of things that make the Antea Hotel truly exceptional. The location is fantastic - an easy walk to many of the most significant historical and cultural venues and only a block from the tram system. In spite of its central location, we found it to be quite quiet. Our fondest memories of the Antea Hotel are of the front desk staff, both day and night. These folks were helpful in every way imaginable, personable and fun to talk to.

The buffet breakfast had a huge selection but was out for so long we found the hot items were cold and the coffee stale. There are many good options right across the street. We also found our room a little small for a week's stay.

Nice hotel with good location, close to the old town centre. Near the hotel there are good and cheap restaurants and even two supermarkets. Our room was cleaned every day. We have got bottled water frequently. Thank you SEHTI! She was an excellent host on our floor. The guys at the front desk were very nice and helpful, many thanks to them too.

Our nicely decorated room was a bit cramped. There's not really room for a second suitcase. If we were to lie down in bed, there's no room for the decorative pillows and bedspread. These are only minor complaints. We had a really good time here!

The staff is very friendly, the hotel is clean and is located in an accessible area for any tourist spot or tourist attraction. The breakfast is good.

The air conditioning in the rooms makes a rather disturbing sound. The clothes hangers are broken and insufficient for a double room. The rooms are very cold if the central heating is not working. I recommend changing the shower gels and shampoos, which have a bad smell. They are probably also very old.

The location is very convenient just walking distance from Gran Bazaar, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosquee, Bosphoro, among others. The room was good and the bed comfy, cleanness also good. The breakfast was amazing, really rich on options and quality. The staff was overall really kind and helpful. The spa facilities (except the gym, which has a broken bike and not affordable apparels) like sauna, (small) pool and Turkish bath were amazing and over my expectations. At least it was nice not to have those facilities full of people (november - off season).

The indoor pool could be (much more) warmer specially in the winter and 1 employee specifically was really rude asking me to bring the hotel umbrellas back in 2 hours since other guests should use them. I was with my kid leaving the reception to explore Istambul on a rainy day, so who this employee could suggest me to bring the umbrellas back in 2 hours? And this same person sounded "passive-aggressive" with me in another situations as well.
