Spotless, quiet, and amazing hospitality at Erguvan Hotel!
Erguvan Hotel is a wonderful place to stay in Istanbul. It is incredibly close to the Blue Mosque, but stays beautifully quiet and peaceful inside. The rooms and facilities are exceptionally clean and comfortable. The highlight of the stay was the fantastic staff—they are so kind, helpful, and take great care of their guests. I highly recommend it

I booked two (2) rooms. The shower in one of the rooms had mildew all over the tiles. The AC in the other room did not work. Initially the front desk said they could not switch me to another room though it was empty, but when I said that without AC I would only pay for one of the rooms. Then they switched me. The floors were dirty in both rooms and left black stuff on our feet. The breakfast was ok. There was a minimal \"sea view\" from a window from our rooms. Airport shuttle service was expensive (55 Euro one way) given the old van they sent to pick us up and drop us off. Lastly, the 10 Euros towards an excursion that was part of the booking deal was useless. The hotel prices were twice the amount that I could get on apps like Get Your Guide and HeadOut. I would not book this hotel again.

The staff were very helpful and overall the rooms were clean. The biggest issue is that the details on Expedia say that there is a bar and a restaurant to have dinner and from a photo it looks like there is an open roof Terrace. There isn’t, there is no bar and you can’t have dinner there. The breakfast is extremely basic and although the breakfast is upstairs in which could be classified a roof Terrace but it is all enclosed with glass. That said for the price the room was okay and the location is excellent. I hope that the details on Expedia will be corrected as we chose the hotel because of it detailing it had a bar and a restaurant and an open roof Terrace.

Terrible. Los empleados homofóbicos. Eramos 3 parejas, las dos hetero tuvieron camas dovles, los dos varones camas mini twin. Habiendo habitaciones full disponibles. El desayuno fatal. Se suponía que era hasta las 10:30am y a las 9am no había nada. Al preguntar dijeron que no habría nada más. La recomendación para la cena fatal. Carísimo y malísimo. Hay lugares mejores que los recomendados. La supuesta terraza no funciona. El restaurante tampoco. No había acondicionador de aire. Había que dormir con las ventanas abiertas con todo el polvo de la calle, el ruido y el humo. El shampoo se acabó al instante. La ducha sucia y rota! Los pisos de la habitación sucios.

Erguvan Hotel provided an amazing stay during my visit to Istanbul. Located in the historic district, the hotel is within walking distance of many major tourist sites.

The owner and all staff were extremely friendly and helpful throughout my 9 night stay.

The hotel is spotless and is well maintained. My room was cleaned daily and coffee and bottled drinking water was refilled.

The owner’s knowledge of Istanbul is incredible and he provided me with information not only about tourist sites but also on lesser known places worth visiting.

Overall, it was a very positive experience and I highly recommend the Erguvan Hotel!

If you’re looking for a hotel with a restaurant and bar that serves a good hearty breakfast, give this one a miss. However, if you want a good, quiet (mostly), comfortable hotel with friendly staff in an excellent location, this fits the bill. The Erguvan does provide a breakfast, but the offering is the same every day and although they will cook an omelette or scrambled egg, the other items are a couple of meats, cheeses, bread, fruit etc. and the breakfast room has superb views of the Bosphorus. For the evening. there are plenty of restaurants within a few minutes’ walk – although not all serve alcohol, so it’s advisable to check before getting a table. With regard to the location, The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Place are also within a few minutes’ walk, as is the nearest tram stop. I’d advise purchasing an Istanbulkart at the machines at the tram stop, which you then top up with credit as required. If I returned to Istanbul for a short break, would I stay at the Erguvan Hotel again? Yes, definitely.

Stay and Feel Comfortable by Choosing this Hotel

Erguvan Hotel is definitely recommended to stay again because of these.

1. Reception staff is Nice, Friendly and cooperative.

2. Reception staff helps you in booking and also tells you where to go and how to go in Istanbul honestly. They given us complementary breakdown on first day.

3. Breakfast is cheaper in the hotel and it’s recommended as it saves your time for visiting in Istanbul.

4. They also helped us for storage of luggage for a day as we have to go to cappadocia for a day and they really cooperated in that.

5. The view while having breakfast is remarkable as you can see the Turkey from one window . The staff who prepares the breakfast is also very cooperative.

6. Hotel is very near to all the important places to see in Istanbul by walk.

Our stay at Ergüvan Hotel was excellent, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable yet quality stay in the heart of Istanbul. The staff were lovely, friendly and accommodating - we had our luggage carried up to our room, and we got to choose between a modern hotel room, or a more traditional, Ottoman style room. We went with the Ottoman style room for the atmosphere, and we were not disappointed with our choice. Our room was stylishly furnished and large, and the view of the hippodrome from our window certainly added to the atmosphere. There are plenty of restaurants and amenities around the location, and the hotel is located just down the hill from the obelisks located behind the Sultanahmet Mosque (perfect, assuming you don't mind a 3-5 minute walk up a rather steep hill to get there). Breakfast is served between 8 and 10 every morning, and a staff member offered to
