About

Sultan Corner Hotel

Sultan Corner Hotel sits at the end of the Arasta Bazaar, close to the Hippodrome and just a few minutes' walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The property is new and clean, with rooms decorated in an Ottoman style that includes traditional lighting and prints. Some rooms offer views of the Blue Mosque, and others look out over the city.

The hotel is run by the same people as the restaurant downstairs, which guests praise for its good food and variety. Staff are repeatedly mentioned as friendly and helpful, offering services like wake-up calls and ironing free of charge. A 24-hour reception, currency exchange, and luggage storage add convenience for travellers.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, 10 minutes from Topkapi Palace, and close to the Grand Bazaar, Hippodrome, and tram stop.
  • Friendly and helpful staff — Guests repeatedly mention the warm, welcoming team who go out of their way, including offering early check-in and free wake-up calls and ironing.
  • Clean, comfortable, and stylish rooms — Rooms are described as spotlessly clean, well-appointed, and nicely refurbished with Ottoman-style decor. Some have city or Blue Mosque views.
  • On-site restaurant and coffee shop — A restaurant directly underneath serves good food with a large variety, and there's also a coffee shop and bar for cold drinks.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The hotel doesn't list parking among its amenities, so guests arriving by car will need to find alternative arrangements in the busy Sultanahmet area.
  • Small property with limited facilities — As a 2-star hotel, the facilities are basic – there's no pool, spa, or gym. The rooms are compact, and the property may feel modest for some travellers.
  • Potential noise from central location — Being close to the Arasta Bazaar and the Hippodrome means street activity and tourist crowds, which could lead to some noise, especially in front-facing rooms.
  • Check-in window ends at 23:59 — If you arrive after midnight, you may have to arrange a late arrival with the hotel, as the standard check-in time ends at 23:59.

“The breakfast was good and very filling.”

“A nice-sized room with a city view, plus useful facilities like central heating, a private safe, and multi-channel TV. The location is incredibly central, right by main attractions, metro, and taxis, and close to the Hippodrome and other tourist spots in Sultanahmet.”

8.1Verified guest

“The location is very central.”

8.1Verified guest

“It's very close to the Sultan Ahmet Mosque (Blue Mosque) – a 5-minute walk – Hagia Sophia is also 5 minutes on foot, Topkapi Palace is 10 minutes, and the Grand Bazaar and other areas are nearby. The tram is close too. All in all, a good location with everything within walking distance, and some places can be reached by tram. We spent 5 nights here, and they gave us early check-in around 9 am, whereas other hotels made us wait until 2 pm. In front of the hotel, there's a travel agency, Eyewitness Travel, where Mr. Hussain was very helpful; we booked a few trips through them.”

“Spotlessly clean room with comfy beds, and the sofa bed was fine. They also have cold drinks at the on-site bar.”
