We had an amazing and unique experience at Nobel Hostel! The location was incredible, just a few meters away from the Blue Mosque. We could even see the mosque from our room and the terrace, which provided a stunning view of Istanbul. The rooms were well equipped and very clean, and the prices were more than fair. The free breakfast served in the morning was delicious and plentiful. The hostel staff were incredible and so nice, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. We even ended up extending our stay for two weeks because we enjoyed it so much. The food at Sofa Cafe, the affiliated restaurant, was amazing and reasonably priced. The chief, Ali, prepared wonderful Turkish dishes that were filling, fresh, and tasty. The staff at Nobel Hostel, especially Mustafa, Seyfi, Jamshid, Ali, and Kirim. I highly recommend Nobel Hostel for an unique and friendly experience in Sultanahmet.

We are a french/spanish 40s couple. We were looking for something cheap and nice. We first stayed 3 nights in an 8 beds dorm for 10€/person/night with turkish breakfast included in the rate. Shared bathroom on each floor. The smell of the sewer in bathrooms will probably be a problem for most demanding customers. Personally, it didn't bother me. There is no air conditionning in the dorms. Very nice staff. I only remember the name of the night shift guy, Ahmet, and the boss, Mehmet. The 3 other young guys were very nice too. Maybe a little bit disorganized at times, but frankly, we enjoyed our stay there. We had 3 good dinners on the terrace with views over the blue mosque and the sea of Marmara. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for something cheap, simple and nice. located in the center of Sultanahmet, near the blue mosque and Haya Sofia, the Grand Bazar and the archeology museum a few minutes away. .
A little bit disorganized at times. The reception desk was often empty and we had to take our own key to our room.

The breakfast is good. The view of the terrace is very good, too. I can see the mosque clearly. If another chance, I will choose Nobel Hostel again.
The bathroom is a little dirty, and the water on the floor makes the trousers wet.

This hotel is in an amazing location, just a stone's throw away from the main attractions. You can easily explore the city without any hassle. The prices are very reasonable, offering great value for money. The staff is incredibly friendly and always ready to assist you with any queries or requests. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with private bathrooms and enough plugs to charge all your devices. The breakfast spread is simple but satisfying, with plenty of options to choose from.
All was well, nothing to complain about here.

The location of the hostel was great, as it was very near to all the major tourist spots and close to the tram station. The hostel was also near from the blue mosque and almost all historical monuments such as Blue mosque. Additionally, the staff was helpful and the breakfast offered a variety of options like muesli, cheese, eggs, and toast.
The stairs in the hostel were a little bit thin and had long steps, making it slightly annoying to go up and downstairs.

The most wonderful is a location, the second - staff. Thisi is very safety area in Istanbul, a lot of Eurpean turists live here.You can easly go to each part of the city from this place.
There was some black fungus in the bathroom on the ceiling.

Great location and helpful staff. Price is very cheap.
Breakfast wasn't as good as we imagined but what you can expect if the price is that low... (There was not enough boiled eggs!!! :D :D). In the room there was a bit stuffy air.

Sweet location, the staff is very nice and friendly, the terrace is great, it has lockers, the food it's ok... I've been in other hostels in istambul and think this is the best one and one of the cheapest. I recomend it.
The stairs aren't very easy to climb...

If you want to stay in sultanahmet with a cheap price , this is definitely the place to stay at ! the location and price are amazing and the staff are okay. Its very close to the blue mosque and the tram. i took a shared room , and the people with me in the room were very nice and i had a locker with a key to keep my valuable stuff inside, and the day i checked out i left my bag at the entrance and took it in the afternoon for my flight back home. the rooftop is very nice!
No trash in the rooms and its not very quite during the day as the hotel is in the center , but that didnt bother me at all.

Very good location close to the Blue Mosque, very practical to visit the historical part of Istanbul. View from the terrace is wonderful. The room was clean. Friendly staff.
Quite far from the modern part of the city
