Ottoman Suites By Sera House

Splendid old-style house, that is very well looked after, nicely decorated. It is located in a quiet place, far from the crowds of tourists - that was one of the main factors for my decision to stay there. Nice location to explore the asian side of Istanbul. Beside that it is quite close to a metro and a ferry. Kuzguncuk is accessible by foot. And i can’t but say about the owners and staff - they all are great people, welcoming and helpful, who really create that sort of atmosphere like you are at home. Plus an additional hug goes for that black kitty🤗 ❤️❤️❤️

It is a beautiful building with a lot of history. As it used to be home to a family, it offers homely environment and warm feeling. Everything seems to be maintained well. It has an amazing garden and its location is great. Even tough it is located on the Asian side, traveling to European side is very easy as it is close to the bridge, seaside, bus stops and boat stations. Friendly staff, lovely cats in the garden and tasty breakfast! Check, check and check..

As it is an old building, you sometimes hear people staying on the upper floor walk but it is not too disturbing.

I really loved staying inside that traditional house I totally recommend it. Breakfast was fantastic!

I liked everything

Beautiful traditional family house perfectly adapted to host tourists. Rooms are stylish and cosy. Hotel staff is warm, welcoming, helpful and definitely love their job.

My mother had a B&B in an 1865 house. Ottoman Suites dates from ~1875, and I felt immediately at home. The Sera House Cafe is a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. Location is surprisingly convenient for accessing the rest of the city via bus (12a), ferry, tram, and Marmaray, making it a good base of operations. Gulsah is a gracious host who pays attention to even the smallest details, such as an "emergency box" and a scale next to the front door.

The nice old typical ottoman house, the neighborhood, the very helpful owners and staff 🙂 I appreciated the notes made by the owner about the public transport and places to visit nearby. Thank you Gulsah also for the prompt reply anytime I needed something.🤗

I couldn't benefit of breakfast although it was included in the price of the room. The breakfast starts at 9 which is quite late especially for the ones travelling for business. The owner and staff were kind to prepare for me a sandwich in the evening for the next morning but this doesn't compare with a warm breakfast. Another aspect would be that the windows and the door do not offer thermic insulation. The night was chilly as if I was sleeping with the windows open. I now it's an old house but I would recommend to the owners to somehow isolate the windows and doors. All in all is a nice house and I enjoyed my stay here.

An old historic building with memorable items on display to remind the good old days. It truly gives you a home away from home feeling & experience. The staff are super efficient, friendly and accomodating. Thanks to Vedat and Gulsah, perfect hosts with deep personal touch and care. Will be there again whenever in Istanbul

I cannot say enough good about this beautiful hotel. The owner was gracious to greet me at the front gate at 1 am!! Great room, comfortable bed, great bathroom and shower. Wonderful restaurant, highly recommend this place and its a short walk to bus stops and metro.

That I only had a very short stay....

Perfect place for a calm holiday. The garden is just so peaceful and beautiful. Staff are very polite and helpful. Rooms are clean and full of with little details like Turkish Delights etc. You can get a free public transportation card from hotel, which pretty helpful and nice. The best part is that it is a small family hotel and you feel it. Also breakfast is awesome!

That is very beautiful and cosy place.
