The breakfast was fantastic, the staff where very friendly and helpful. The lady at the reception is an epitome of honesty and transparency. My wife forgot her handbag with all her valuables and money, outside at the door of the hotel when she was putting on her jacket. The lady picked it up and kept it safe for our restoration. Nothing was missing including the money. Thank you very much for your honesty.

We noticed that at times in our room there was a funny smell coming out from the toilet. Maybe there is something wrong with the ventilation system. Television is too small and the picture quality was very poor. Couldn't watch football world cup matches from my room except In the Restaurant.

Very helpful staff, great location easy access to metro walking distance to most attractions around Sultanahmet area. We were upgraded to sister hotel called Lalahan, which is next door to Ilkay. Breakfast was good variety of items on offer, unlimited tea or coffee. Our room was comfortable overall nice break. We definitely stay there again.

Breakfast room was little could, it could have been heated up more.

Location - very close to everything of interest, staff - very welcoming and helpful, breakfast.

Room was quite small and noisy as it was facing a busy street, but it was clean and really good value for money. Had we asked to change for a quieter rear facing room I'm sure the staff would have agreed but we decided we didn't want to give up the view.
