    On the positive side, the hotel's location was superb, being very close to the tram station and just a stone's throw away from the bustling city center. It was also conveniently situated near popular attractions such as Sultanahmet Square and Hagia Sophia.

    The room was very small and cramped, making it difficult to move around and open our luggage properly.

Whether you're a history enthusiast or just looking to explore the small streets of the old town, this hotel puts you right in the middle of it all. And the best part? The stunning view of the Hagia Sophia from some of the rooms adds an extra touch of charm and beauty to your stay.

    The staff at the hotel were very cute and friendly. They went out of their way to assist us , especially Aiyhan who was helpful. The location of the hotel was excellent, with easy access to all the major attractions in historic Istanbul. It was within a short walking distance to popular sights like the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, Cistern, and Topkapi Palace. The hotel room was very clean and suitable for a family of three. We had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the views from the rooftop terrace.

The hotel's terrace offered stunning views and was a great spot to enjoy a meal. the Ares Hotel exceeded our expectations and we look forward to staying there again.

    Conveniently located in the heart of old Istanbul, just steps away from the iconic landmarks of the city like the blue mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi. The hotel also offers easy access to the metro. The rooms werenice and neat, and the rooftop restaurant provided fine views of the surrounding area. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing great tips for getting cheap tickets to activities. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone on a budget looking for a central location in Istanbul.

    The hotel is conveniently located near the main tourist sights in the Sultanahmet District of Istanbul. You can easily walk to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the Basilica Cistern entrance past outdoor restaurants. The staff is pleasant and provides good service, always greeting guests with a smile. The breakfast is average but delicious, with fresh and plentiful options. the hotel offers a fantastic roof terrace for enjoying coffee, tea, beer, lunch, and dinner.

    The rooms can be a bit tight, especially if you book a single room.

    Location near all tourist sights in Sultanahmet: The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the tourist center, within walking distance of the most popular attractions. It is exactly opposite the most excellent landmarks of this city. Transportation: The hotel is near the train station, just a 2-minute walk away, making it easy to access other parts of the city.

    Nothing, it was perfect.

The rooms werenice and neat, and the breakfast was delicious. I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this hotel in Istanbul.
