Basilissis Hotel Reviews

Great place to stay Staff was kind and helping Room was clean but washroom was very small Breakfast was tasty

An excellent little hotel. It's located minutes away from all the attractions in Sultanahmet. The man on reception was very pleasant and helped us when we needed. They also arranged a car to the airport for us for 40 euros. Next time I'm in Istanbul I will stay here again. Fabulous.

Only some staffs could speak English, hard to communicate especially the staff at midnight. The bed is too soft and the room smells humid. The room 302’s lock cannot be locked. There are more choices of hotel at this price better than this one. The good things are the breakfast is fine and they can help you order air transfer with 50 euro, also it’s close to the Blue Mosque.

Very pleasant stay for the first time in Istanbul. Stuff on the reception was very helpful and polite. Location is very close to all main attractions and very well connected to other parts of the city. Hotel location is in the center of main attractions but still very quiet and you will have a feeling that you are not in busy Istanbul while you are in your room. Breakfast was delicious and having various of recipes. Totally recommend to everyone and we will book it again when we come back to Istanbul.

Hamdolilah hamdolilah

The sheets and towels are dirty. The shower room is dark.

Good hotel for its price. The mattress is firm and comfortable to sleep on. I would recommend this hotel for travel!

The location is relatively remote and it is inconvenient to carry a large amount of luggage. Sound insulation is very poor.

We stayed at Basilissis Hotel for 1 night. When we reached the hotel, a friendly gentleman welcomed us. He was very helpful by answering all our questions about the city and transportation. In terms of location, the hotel is in a good location, within walking distance to many places such as Gülhane Park, Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, Basilica Cistern, and the remaining places such as Sirkeci Train Station, Gülhane Tram Stop, Eminönü Pier are only a short walk away. You can reach it by public transportation. After a difficult and anxious process of choosing a hotel, we were really pleased when we got to the room. The room was exactly the same as the images. The bed linen, duvet, pillowcases and towels were all really clean and smelled nice. The bathroom was also very clean, the shampoo, shower gel, body lotion, soap and shower cap were nice. I did not encounter any problems such as mold, moisture or rust anywhere in the room. We did not have the opportunity to try the breakfast, we had to check out. We were very pleased in every sense. We would like to thank the hotel managers and staff, we hope they maintain their quality.

The boss is very enthusiastic and will recommend you places to have fun~ The mosque and Hagia Sophia are very close, and the subway station is also very close.

Great central location Friendly staff Breakfast was okay

Old and dirty hotel.

The room was very clean and cozy. Staff was very nice and accommodating and felt very comfortable.

Perfect location, and reasonable price! Our host Harun was very attentive to our requests and quickly resolved any issues we had with the room, other employees were not as helpful unfortunately. They had SIM cards and tour information but we found that tours were peicey in Istanbul in general and opted to do it on our own. Most museums have an audio guide. Breakfast was different every day and very fresh, they even brought us fresh baked cookies ! The location is the selling point of this hotel, archaeology museum and topkapi museum are walking distance, tram to Asian side and to bosphorus boats (eminonu) is less than 5min walk and there are plenty hotels in the area for a quick bite .
