If you want personal attention and feel like you are part of the family this is the hotel for you. With less than 20 rooms the staff genus cares about you and is so very helpful. The breakfast is great with continental style traditional and “American” food as well as made to order omelets. The owner is a delight and the guys who worked the evening and night shift were so friendly and fun. Oktay, made me breakfast at 6am due to my early departure and Furkan made me Turkish coffee more than once and stopped to have a cup with me on more than one occasion. it is in perfect walking distance to all the things you want to see and close to the ferry for further places. This is the one guys, look no further.

location and staff

If you want to have a family away from home, choose this hotel. Arzu is so warm and bubbly, she even helped me arrange for an appointment with the gastroenterologist. Murat is the guy who tends the hotel at night, he also arranges excursions so it is convenient to have your bookings done with him. Helpful guy, on my first night of arrival he even made me popcorns. The location of this hotel is excellent, it is centrally located, nearby all main attractions, and yet the neighborhood is quiet, quaint, friendly and warm. Oksana, Kader and Ayesha were also very pleasant. They tend to the hotel during the day. Breakfast provided by the hotel is local, and you can choose how you want your eggs to be done :) I was in the hotel working remotely and I was working nicely on the rooftop. That was a wonderful work week, with a beautiful view of the Marmara.

There were some dust mites in my bed, I stayed in the traditional room with that interesting little harem. I think it is quite normal considering the room has less sunlight because it is located underground. The rooms on the upper levels did not have this problem. (Yes, I checked with the other guests) I am sure Arzu and her team will look into this and this can be sorted out easily. Oh yeah, Arzu might wanna upgrade her WiFi :)

Very nice hotel. Very good location slightly downhill from the blue mosque. Very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are clean and well equipped. Turkish breakfast is nice. Wifi works fine. Was very quiet while we were there with only a few other guests.

The hotel is quite small overall and does not have a large sign outside it making it hard to find initially. There is no elevator and the staircase is steep and twists with narrow steps. The only other thing is to avoid the restaurants and shops around the hotel as they are very expensive and poor quality tourist traps.

Great location and excellent service. On arrival, we found the environment pleasant and welcoming. Both check-in and check-out were professionally handled and easy. The room was very pleasant, it was cozy and very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was really delicious and varied. The hotel staff was always friendly, patient and eager to help. No matter what time of day or night, you could turn to them with all your concerns. That impressed us the most. The hotel's location is excellent as some of the top tourist attractions, namely, The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia and Topkapi Palace are within a few minutes walk, while the Grand Bazar and the Spice Bazar are a few tram stops away. The Divalis is a small family run hotel but big on delivery. It would be unfair if we didn't mention a few names who contributed so much towards making our stay a wonderful experience. So to Ms. Arzu, Ms. Tuba, Mr. Furkan and Mr. Oktay, thank you all so much. You all went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. The hotel was wonderful and our stay experience even better than expected. The price was amazing. On our next stays, we will definitely check into Divalis Hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Istanbul.

The hotel staff are friendly and welcoming and go out of there to help you give advice. When I came to hotel there was issues with my booking but staff sorted it out for and toke me to my room but the room was not good for me as I have panic attacks had no window ect so I spook to the staff he got on the phone to try to sort honestly he did put me at the top and lol even tho I was on my own I had the romantic room 😅 🙂 loved it tho honestly highly impressed and recommended this hotel Top place .. I even got phone call for my breakfast too 😋 Mama and all the staff there thank you so much for everything ❤️ much love and respect.

The location was excellent! Since it was within walking distance of the Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar, and countless restaurants, it made my short stay in Istanbul better than expected.

Since the location is in the heart of a busy neighborhood, there was some normal street noise, but that was also part of the charm.

The staff and breakfast in this hidden gem of the hotel is the best thing about it. Also you get to stay in the central area of Sultanahmedt where you are close to most of the touristy visits. I recommend this hotel if you want the best value for your money.

the location is absolutely perfect. 5 mins walk to Agia Sophia and easy walk to bazar. Small and cozy hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet quarter. The staff is the best wonderful and always taking care of you. Will definitely stay there on any future visit to the city

Everything was perfect

Great location, staff ready to help with any question. It was very nice to get a room upgrade. Delicious breakfast just like at home.

The location of the hotel was amazing. In addition, the hotel staff were very helpful during check in and check out and were very down to earth. There are plenty of restaurants near the hotel to dine in.

Breakfast options were very limited. Wish they had more options added
