The location was in the heart of Sultanahmet and very near to the main attractions in Istanbul like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Hippodrome etc. The view from terrace was very nice. The rooms were clean, the staff was helpful.

I felt Sultanahmet is not a good place to stay which is not really a problem of the hotel. Tea / coffee maker could be provided in rooms but this is a minor point.

The location was excellent. The room was good and bed comfortable. The sea views from the balcony were excellent. The owner was very friendly and helpful.

Breakfast was not good at all, so much so that we went out for breakfast on our last morning and only came back for coffee. There was no variety and what was there, was very ordinary. On 2 mornings out of 3 the only cooked things were hard boiled eggs, some tasteless sausages and some nuggets that were so hard. Turkey has some amazing sweets. No sweets were provided, except some cheap bisquits. No yoghurt and or fruit, except some ordinary looking apples. There were no glasses of any kind, cups or any cutlery in the room.

Thanks for Sayeed. He is a nice person, Ahmed too. We took the room with the sea view, that was a very good choice. The room is big enough for three people, the bathroom is a bit too small, not like the pictures. The breakfast is good as well. I would definitely recommend that hotel.

The first night, we had to stay in another room because our booked one wasn't available. But that was OK because we arrived at night. The most bothering thing is that there is no trash can in the room, Sayeed you must put one in every room.

I recently spent a week at the Olympic Hotel in Istanbul with my parents, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome, always ready to assist with anything we needed. Whether it was providing us with local recommendations, helping us navigate the city, or ensuring our room was spotless and well-equipped, the service was impeccable. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with cozy rooms that were perfect for our family. The location is also ideal, with easy access to key attractions and transport links, making it a great base for exploring Istanbul. Breakfast was always a highlight of the day, offering a wide variety of delicious options to start our mornings off right. Overall, our stay at the Olympic Hotel was memorable, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul. The friendly and helpful staff truly made a difference, and we look forward to returning!

First of all- the location is just perfect. Close to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica of Cistern, Topkapi etc. 5 min walk and you can see the most beautiful places in Sultanahmet area. My room was big enough for two people (I was alone and it was huge for me), bed was very comfortable. I am a big fan of cheese so breakfast was good enough for me. Close to the Olimpic Hotel is restaurant called Ortaklar- very cheap, tasty food and great service! Don’t forget to try sahlep and rice pudding!

It’s not the Hotel’s fault but it was a bit noisy because of the supermarket in front of the hotel- delivery sound might be problematic for some of you so don’t forget to take ear plugs. I’ve spent 5 nights in that place and it only happened twice so not a big deal

Our second time in Istanbul, first time in Olimpic Hotel. I can only say good things about the place, and better things about the staff. The receptionists (Ahmed is great, and the blonde lady (I can't remember her name but she's the only lady working in the reception), she's absolutely fantastic, friendly, helpful, etc. My special gratitude to the beautiful lady chef that works so hard every morning to offer the best breakfast and always with a big smile on her face. Thank you so much!❤️ Mansour and Sonia family!

Olimpic is in a perfect central location less than 10 mins walk from the Grand Bazaar and a 2in walk from the main Tram lines. The rooms are okay but the breakfast was really delicious with a variety of traditional Turkish and sufficient Western/European dishes - a really homely provision. The room was clean but fairly basic with a TV, tiny fridge and Air Conditioner. The staff are quite accommodating. There was a very cheap and well-stocked little supermarket (which the locals use as well) right across the street - shop here for essentials!

The shower was not great with the shower screen/door threatening to fall off!

Super happy with our stay, we chose a room with a view to the water and were very much enjoying chilling on the balcony in the evenings. Beds were comfy and rooms were cleaned daily. Alex helped us to organise a transport to the airport for an early flight which was handy to not having to worry about it ourselves. All the staff were very friendly and happy to help whenever needed. And the breakfast included was fantastic with a good selection of local foods and some international. Good value for money and great location.

Nothing major, could see a lamp cover in the room that was broken but did not care as there were other lights to use.

Samet is an excellent employee at the hotel! He took excellent care of us and our transfer, providing tips on hidden gems and more affordable, better attractions that tourists might miss. He was truly great, and when the neighborhood faced a water outage overnight, he was well-prepared with water canisters to assist immediately. Additionally, he is genuinely personable. The hotel itself is a good choice in terms of value for money. The breakfast was good, and the view during breakfast was stunning, a solid 10/10! If new hairdryers and dishes like Menem are added, the hotel definitely deserves 6/5 stars, making it outstanding in terms of price/performance. The location of the hotel is fantastic, with affordable restaurants open 24/7 in the vicinity. The transfer was seamless; both during pickup and the journey to the airport, the bus was truly luxurious, making you feel like you're in a first-class setting.

Please upgrade the hairdryers, add new ones.

Perfect location, easily walking to all major attractions and plenty of restaurants nearby. Very helpful and friendly staff, ready to help at anything. The rooms were clean and it was obvious it was made a serious investment.

The room wasn't as spacious and modern as showed in the pictures. The bathroom was somehow smelling but was clean. For a triple room there was only a sidebed, should be at least one more, also a chair. Breakfast should have more variety in international food, it had mostly local dishes. The basic coffee like Espresso/cappuccino not available.
