Awesome experience!!
Our stay at Artefes Hotel in Istanbul was absolutely exceptional in every way! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional, ensuring every aspect of our visit was flawless. Upon check-in, the receptionist handed us a detailed guidebook with information about the city’s top attractions, which was incredibly helpful for planning our days. Throughout our stay, they consistently shared fascinating insights about Turkish culture and the local language, making our experience even more enriching. The hotel’s services were impeccable, with every detail handled with excellence. From the clean and comfortable rooms to the delicious breakfast, everything exceeded our expectations. When we return to Istanbul, there’s no doubt we’ll be staying at this Hotel again. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an outstanding experience in the heart of the old city!

About 50 minutes from the airport (~$40) by taxi. Location is very convenient, walking distance to main attractions. The hotel is very clean and conveniently located. Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable. The breakfast is awesome and you can go upstairs to have it in the patio overlooking the water. Would definitely recommend and come back if travels bring us back there.

Great location.
Great place walking distance to the major sites and the tram. Good breakfast. A little noisy from outside noise but you are in the city. Very poor shower water pressure. For the price point and location I would definitely recommend this place.
