The hotel is in good and pretty quiet location very close to Sultanahmed tram, Blue Mosque and surrounding attractions. To reach Grand Bazaar by foot is also easy. There is pretty steep but short hill which has to be climbed all the time when going out, but that’s not problem at all. There are several restaurants close by if you are too tired to go somewhere else (although I wouldn’t really recommend them). All people working in the hotel are absolutely amazing. Despite of the fact that they don’t speak English or just little, all of them are so friendly and care about their costumers a lot. When I arrived I was given free Istanbul card to use, when I was short of cash for taxi, instead of telling me where is the closest ATM they lent me money. Every day I was offered tea and coffee. Room and bathroom were cleaned every single day in pretty high standard. There is basic amnesties in room so you can make yourself tea or coffe. Small fridge, hairdryer. Shower was really good and hot all the time.

If I would stay next time, I would ask about room in first or second floor as my one was on the too (4th floor) and as there is no lift it was quit annoying to run up when I forgot something. Only thing which I wasn’t happy about were another guests next to my room as first two nights guest were smoking in the room and I could smell that so badly. Also they were super loud until 3:30am. Next two nights new guests came with baby which was sleeping directly behind my head and crying a lot. Would be great if hotel will sort it out some isolation between rooms. Otherwise I suggest to take earplugs with you if you wants to have at least decent rest.

Amazing little hotel, exceptional for its price. Location is wonderful - the hotel is placed right in the old city center, with 3 minute walk to the seafront and about 10 minutes to Hagia Sophia. The room was very clean and spacious, with a comfortable double bed, a table, a fridge, a kettle, a hair dryer, good WiFi and air conditioner. Also there's a lovely open terrace on the rooftop with a beautiful view on the city, Hagia Sofya and Little Sofya and the sea - amazing place to sit with a coffee in the evening The staff is super friendly and hospitable, speaks English and Russian well, ready to help - the first night we noticed the lighting in the room felt a bit dim, and by the next evening they've already changed the lightbulbs. The rooms are cleaned regularly and neatly. Overall we've really enjoyed our stay, and if we're in Istanbul once more, we'll be happy to stay here again

The location is very good, but the streets around are lively and somewhat noisy, and the hotel is surrounded by three mosques, so muezzin calls could be heard quite loudly - it was ok for us and not a problem really, but better be ready

This is a great hotel in terms of price and quality. Also worth mentioning is the staff, who are ready to help guests in everything — this is really important. They speak English and Russian. Our room needed some cosmetic repairs, but it had everything you need for a comfortable stay. There was a refrigerator and an electric kettle in the room. On the top floor of the hotel there is a terrace where you can smoke or eat at any time of the day.

The only significant minus for me — every day at 6 am from our room you could clearly hear the singing of the mullah, even with earplugs. But this does not depend on the hotel, and gradually you get used to it just like the locals.

Exceptional location of the hotel, which is a 5-minute walk from Hagia Sophia, Blue mosque and other religious and historical buildings in the mentioned part of the city. The room with two beds as well as the bathroom itself was extremely clean with excellent air conditioning. We were greeted at the reception by a friendly elderly gentleman (receptionist) who made our stay even more pleasant. The hotel has a roof where you can spend pleasant evenings with a view of the sea and the city. Nearby is the "KIM" megamarket, as well as a large number of restaurants. We spent six days and would return to this accommodation again. All praise for the accommodation/location, the hygiene maintenance lady and the friendly elderly receptionist. Overall 10/10

This has nothing to do with accommodation but watch out for small market: "PEKER" in vicinity. Literally nothing has a price tag and cashier is typing insanely high prices on his calculator when you approach to pay. No fiscal bill or any other type just random high numbers on cashier calculator. Use local mega markets "KIM" "BIM" or "101" for regular/reasonable prices.

The location is perfect you can walk everywhere and don’t need a car. The hotel is very clean and the rooms are cleaned daily. The terrace is amazing with a view of the Blue Mosque and Bosphorus. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The host even found us a free parking in front of the hotel even thoguh it wasn’t offered on booking. I can’t recommend more to book this hotel.

The stairs are steeps and there is no elevator so it can be challenging to carry the suitcase up the stairs, but the host carried our suitcase to our room.

The location is stunning, with a fantastic view of the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus. The area feels like a village in the heart of the city, where everyone knows you. Great restaurants all around and a short walk to most things you’ll want to see in the Faith/Sultanahmet/Topkapi area.

we stayed in the hotel for three nights and I have to say everything was excellent, the location of the hotel is quite close to everything, shops, restaurants, and the sea was not far from the hotel about 15 minutes walking. As for the room, even though being small, but it was comfortable and excellent. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful, he was there for us at any time and whenever we needed him he was glad to help.

when we arrived at the hotel the room was not well cleaned and there was some hair on the floor, however, the man in the reception respond quickly and cleaned the room well the next day.

I really liked the hotel and the service, as well as the quick confirmation of the reservation. The hotel has a very convenient location - very close to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, which can be seen from the comfortable terrace of the hotel. The room is clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I’m very grateful to Yusuf for the quick check-in at the hotel, as well as the fact that he is always in touch and answered all questions about the room. I asked for a room with two separate beds - and stayed in such a room. I highly recommend My Holiday Time Hotel!

The view from the hotel was stunning. The personal was extremely friendly. The location was close to the sights. They clean the rooms everyday. Our room was spacious overall great.

The communication was hard because the hosts don’t speak english. When we first came there was mold on the ceilings in the bathrooms but while our stay they fixed it. The walls are really thin and you can hear what is happening in the next room but this wasn’t really a problem for us since we were alone on the floor. ( there are two rooms on one floor ) There isn’t an elevator so it would be hard for an old person. They turn on the heating only during night so it needed some time to warm up the room. We had some kind of an opening in the bathroom and that made it cold all the time which wasn’t good.

It’s very close to the main spots of the city, enjoy the short walks from/to the hotel, and the staff was very friendly

There is nothing bad about it, just the rooms can be small if you plan to stay longer but still very very nice place definitely coming back
