the location was perfect. in the heart of the Fatih district. 15 mins walk to the Bazaar and 25-30 to the Sultanahmadpark (Hagia Sophia & the Blue Mosque) the guys at the reception were very accommodating and helpful. We booked an airport pickup and drop off through them and everything went according to plan. the price of the room was very competitive as well. I got to meet the new owners. they are trying their best to please their customers. we were certainly pleased with everything. There is no breakfast served. only tea/coffee/Turkish coffee (complementary). but while staying in Istanbul I certainly do not recommend eating breakfast at any hotel because the city is saturated with restaurants. we got a big room with daily house keeping/daily fresh towels and air-conditioning . I cannot say I found any annoyances. I would book again here for sure.

the neighbourhood is busy and the surrounding restaurants get loud until midnight. if you sleep early then you might get disturbed by the noises.

Hotel is new and clean. the staff are very helpful and friendly. It is decorated nicely and the beds are comfortable. shower was very nice.. the view from the balcony is very nice. Great internet. The location is great. lot's of stores and restaurants and you can walk up the very steep hill to get to attractions. Very close to the sea shore, 10 minutes walk to the sea.

My room was very small, I couldn't put anything in the closet because the door couldn't open due to the bed being in front of the door. I could barely inch around the bed in the room. no room for anything, especially since my luggage did not fit in the closet. I work from my hotel room, and although there is a desk, the my adapter wouldn't stay in the plug, I had to use the plug on the other side and work from the bed, making it very uncomfortable. There was no chair on the balcony. I was on the 4th floor , there is no lift and about 60 stairs up very narrow and steep stairway. I have asthma and this proved to be quite a problem.

Great location about 15 minutes walk from the blue mosque, also accessible by public transport. Located near streets frequented by tourists with noise which, however, stops around 11.00 pm. Clean room and comfortable bed. Helpful staff and offer of free water, tea and coffee anytime. Good value for money.

The room is a bit small and the soundproofing could be better but there aren't many rooms and if the other guests aren't particularly noisy it's not a problem

We spent 11 nights in rhythm and it was an excellent stay . Firstly our room was quite clean also comfortable in every way.Furthermore the location is so safe since we are a goup of only girlsI was so impressed by all of the stuff within the hotel especially Omer a nice and extremely helpful receptionist who always ensured our stay in the hotel was immaculate on daily basis also Onur and Mehmet who were always there to give help and guide us. Hence I highly recommend you this hotel. I will absolutely be staying here again !!

I like the shower cabin and spent a significant amount of time there. The room was really calm. The location is perfect. Our room had a sea view! The staff is helpful and nice to talk with. I like Maria, Muhammad, Umar, (I lost the paper with the name of that guy, but his tea is the best) and the Turkish guy who met us first of course.

This was my first time in Istanbul and I have nothing to compare with. Everything was fine. Thank you!

The hotel is in a perfect location to the attractions around and the nearby restaurants are quite famous. Taxis or public transport services are within reach. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, one of the best hotel staff I’ve seen so far! The room is tidy and cleaned up every day during the stay. Moreover, the price is reasonable for the excellent service offered. I highly recommend Rhythm Hotel 🌟

exciting dislocation Kumkapi is the concentration of fish restaurants with outstanding choice of seafood. Personal of the hotel were friendly and helpful at any situation. We had the sea view room and triple room. I recommend due to the small size of standart room book the triple room for 2 persons in any way.

One day it was water in bath, but our manager fixed this moment at the same day
