We really felt at home during our stay at Ibrahim Pasha. The location was perfect, common areas were cozy and beautifully decorated to feel like a home. The room was comfortable and clean, the breakfast and tea were superb, and the view from the rooftop terrace was gorgeous. But it was really the excellent staff that made all the difference. Everyone was so friendly, warm, and helpful, quietly taking initiative to make sure that all our needs were taken care of, without having to be asked. For example, noticing that I arrived with severe allergies from the flight, Ramzan at the front desk left instructions for a delicious warm brew of honey, lemon and cinnamon to be sent to me that night to help alleviate my runny nose and sneezing. It is not a miracle cure but certainly helped me sleep comfortably that night and I woke up breathing normally again. Since we were there for 7 nights, the housekeeping staff quietly replaced the tiny bottle of shower gel in the bathroom with a bigger one so that we would not run out and need not ask for more. These little gestures of care and thoughtfulness make their hospitality exceptional. We felt like honoured guests in a their home, and staying there was certainly one of the main highlights of our time in Istanbul. Thank you, Ibrahim Pasha!

Everything was perfect.

We stayed at Hotel Ibrahim Pasha with my partner for six nights to explore Istanbul, flying in from Barcelona after a trip from New York. We cannot express in words how happy we were with the hotel. The service was amazing. Everyone at the hotel was incredibly kind and attentive. The breakfast included a wide variety of delicious local specialties, and the entire hotel was beautifully decorated. It is absolutely stunning. They also gave us the best tips on where to go and what to see. Thank you to everyone at Hotel Ibrahim Pasha for making our trip to Istanbul unforgettable and for providing such high-quality service.

I was thrilled with this hotel! The location was incredible, just off the Hippodrome, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Sofia Hagia. We walked or caught the tram to everything and felt like we were in the middle of the most historical part of Istanbul. The view from the rooftop deck was particularly epic, it was amazing watching the sun set over the blue mosque while the call to prayer rang out over the city. The staff were also amazingly helpful, checking us in early and letting us have breakfast before our room was ready due to an early flight. Oh the breakfasts! Absolutely delicious selection of local foods which we devoured every day. For what this hotel cost it was excellent value and I would 100% reccommend it to anyone staying in this amazing city.

Nothing, it was all great.

The staff at the boutique style Hotel Ibrahim Pasha were all fantastic. They could not do enough for their guests. The rooms were neat, well laid out and it didn't feel like the typical hotel room, much more comfortable and felt spacious with a nice balcony. The roof terrace provided a clear view of the nearby Blue Mosque. Information, tours, and history was all provided eagerly by the staff, who helped us organise a fantastic day trip to Gallipoli, with an awesome guide once we arrived. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. We will definitely be telling our friends, and I highly recommend staying here for a great holiday or stopover. The hotel is walking distance from many attractions, such as grand bazaar, spice market, ferries to the Asian side, mosques, the easy to use tram service, and amazing architecture. Nearby are many restaurants and bars, but far enough away that it's quiet at the hotel.

Nothing. Everything was as good as could be.

This is a great little hotel in the heart of the old city. The location is amazing and every major attraction is a walking distance from the hotel. Plenty of good restaurants around as well. The hotel staff were the best. They were super friendly, helpful and kind. The breakfast was amazing and there was plenty of variety on offer. We also had the best Turkish coffee at the hotel and trust me, we tried it at many other places. Overall, we had a great stay here and would highly recommend this hotel.

The bathroom was a bit small but that is pretty much the only thing that wasn’t great.

The staff were lovely. The hotel's vibe is relaxed, warm, comforting. Attention to detail was superb. Thoroughly professional, warm, friendly, welcoming, thoughful. The rooftop terrace (with bar) was a great space to chill with a book and a drink. The views of the Hagia Sofia, Bosphorus and the surrounding city were exceptional. The location couldn't be better if you're looking to visit the big historic attractions. I could wax lyrical for pages about how good this hotel is. It is small, but intimate, in a very relaxed and accessible way.

I stay in some amazing places and have exceptionally high standards. I struggle to think of something to mark Hotel Ibrahim Pasha down on.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good with a decent variety of options. Location is a 5 minute walk to all the major sites such as Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, etc. and a 10 minute walk to Topkapi Palace and Grand Bazaar. They also provide unlimited free bottled water which was much appreciated.

I booked a superior room specifically so I could have outdoor space (as pictured). When I checked in, my room didn't have any outdoor space and I was told by the staff not all superior rooms have the patio and I would have needed to specify that I wanted one with a patio. They offered to move me the next day when one was available but I didn't want to pack up all my stuff again. I found that very misleading so if you book a superior room are expecting a room with a patio like the pictures, message them prior to confirm that they have one available.

We have now been in this hotel twice, and each time we were very pleased with our stay. The deluxe rooms where we stayed were welcoming , large enough and very comfortable. The staff are very friendly and attentive, and we were also very happy to have their helpful introduction to Istanbul on our first day, where they showed us on a map all the things one can do, restaurants and places to go, and how to get around. The hotel has charm and is in a small and generally quiet street and in an area where one feels very safe. The location is excellent and from the hotel one can walk to many of the most important places to see in Istanbul, the area of Sultanahmet (Hagia Sophia, Topkapi , Blue Mosque, Hippodrome, Basilica Cistern), the Grand Bazaar, and further down from there the Spice Bazaar and the New Mosque. There are also good restaurants recommended by the staff near the hotel. We enjoyed the breakfasts in the hotel, with a good selection, a nice breakfast room and friendly staff. The hotel also has a pretty roof-terrace where one can enjoy a view and a drink, especially in the warmer months at the end of the day.

This hotel is amazing. The staff are attentive, patient, kind, knowledgeable, polite, smiling and helpful. I cannot praise them enough. The roof top has a wonderful view and you can call for drinks on the phone. The location is exceptional. The breakfast was beautifully presented with a wonderful range of turkish products. The rose jam, grilled olives, bread, cheeses, pomegranate juice and whipped yogurt were our particular favourites. The room was small but beautifully decorated, and quiet with a powerful shower and hairdryer and deliciously smelling toiletries. The room was very cosy, homely and comfortable in terms of bed, blankets, and bowl of fruit provided. We will be recommending it to all our friends.

We stayed at Ibrahim Pasha Hotel in Sultanahmet with our family, and everything was absolutely wonderful – just as it always is. From the warm and professional reception staff to the delicious and well-prepared breakfast, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. The rooms were spotless, and the location is simply perfect – right in the heart of Sultanahmet, surrounded by history. We truly felt at home. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable, and high-quality stay with family. Thank you again for everything – we look forward to coming back soon!
