Sarnlç is a really nice little place, authentic Turkish hospitality, our room was small BUT very comfortable, clean. Great location, butane warned.. if you’re a light sleeper- take some ear plugs (it’s in a lively area that’s got music playing until around midnight) didn’t bother us , but could be an issue for others. The staff were amazing, beyond helpful , indeed one of the chefs gave us his Istanbul Travel card to use for the day 😊 Kadikoy/Moda area is a good hub for sightseeing, eating, drinking, shopping… even has the old type tram system operating, pretty sure we’re going back, will be staying at Sarniç again.

Wi-Fi is very hit and miss, pretty much none existent in our room, ok down in reception or breakfast room.

We had a wonderful stay at Sarnic Butik Hotel. We were staying there during our wedding day, so we had a really busy day at the hotel with all the people we were supposed to meet. the hairstylist. the makeup artist, several camera crew... The staff of Sarnic Butik Hotel were cooperative on every aspect and made our wedding day enjoyable since the very beginning. We shot some photos in nice traditional-looking corridors ad common areas of the hotel too. It is also worth mentioning that there were no additional costs involved, although we decided ourselves to tip the staff.

Our only complaint is about he internet connection and the speed which the staff said their internet provider doesn’t provide a better service. :(

Apart from the great facilities and structure of the hotel, the friendly staff is the star of the story with their friendliness and kindness making us feel at home! I want to mention especially EJam, Hakan, my special friend Batu, Mitty and Tanju! What a joy to have met these people! Location is absolutely fantastic and allowed us to immerse ourselves in the Turkish culture in the eastern part called Kadikoy. The restaurant with its exceptional Turkish cuisine and song is an absolute gem. Cannot recommend it highly enough! Love Andre and Jackie until we meet again.

Wifi need improvement, thats all but not a showstopper!

very beautiful hotel with a great location. the staff was very friendly and always helpful. It's a 7 minute walk to the ferry and there are also a lot of restaurants and shops around

every evening in the restaurant overlooking the windows of our room there was live music until 1 am. if you are looking for peace and quiet then this will be difficult

The saff are extremely kind and friendly. All 3 receptionist were lovely despite their busy schedule! It was always easy to communicate with any of the staff member, especially Mrs. Ecem who went out of her way to make my stay simply exceptional! She can create very warm atmosphere which is something single travelers will appreciate. The room was just big enough and the overall cleanliness was very good. The location is perfect if you prefer to walk or use the tram, metro or ferry. It's also walking distance from the airport shuttle. This hotel is perfect if you want to explore the night life of Kadikoy! There are countless bars, cafes and restaurants right at your doorstep and the hotel restaurant is extremely popular in itself.

Being in the center of Kadikoy, expect a fairly high level of noise. The weekend is the worst in that sense. The hotel restaurant has live music every night so if you are a light sleeper, you might struggle. They try to compensate for that by providing earplugs in the room. As much as the location is great for walking, reaching the hotel by car is almost impossible and you must expect a lot of traffic driving around the crowded streets while looking for a parking lot. You might occasionally smell cigarette smoke coming from the restaurant area.

This was one of my stranger hotel experiences. There is no lobby, simply a desk before a stairway. When my friend and I arrived the man at the desk was surly and said we didn’t have a reservation. When I showed him my printed reservation, he then said it was only for one room. Finally, he agreed we did have 2 rooms reserved. I thought I had made a big mistake booking the hotel. We went up an old beaten down staircase and when he flung open the door to my room, I was so surprised. It was lovely and spacious with the faded elegance of another era, dramatically made up bed, high ceiling with decorative painting, good quality towels. I wondered later if his behavior had been part of a performance he puts on to surprise the guests.

The hotel is located in a busy area with lots of shops and restaurants that have live music until late at night. Fortunately, I liked the musicians and singers so I enjoyed it, especially when the customers joined in. If you like a free concert in the comfort of your own room, you won’t mind the late night music. The loud cheers from the guys watching soccer games across the street was not as enjoyable.

Highly recommend if you want a taste of Istanbul at your doorstep :) In that aspect, the location of the hotel is ideal - at the heart of vibrent Kadikoy surrounded with local market, stores and endless places to wine and dine. It is a five minute walk from various modes of public transport - excellently connected to the rest of the city. The accomodation is as presented - clean, cozy and a bit noisy. The breakfast was satisfactory, with daily offerings of savory and sweet options. The staff was friendly and laid-back.

Only the staircase. A bit unsafe in my opinion - very steep, without a proper railing and not very good lightining.

I liked the staff and their friendliness more than anything else. This is a boutique hotel as it says so if you are looking for a big chain hotel with sauna and gym and pool and 3 different types of breakfast, look somewhere else. You book this hotel as you want to feel close to town and live enjoy the busy streets like the locals do.

The lighting in the staircases are motion sensitive which is good and saves energy, but they turn off if you are coming the stairs slowly! so if they can stay on longer , the better.

the location is very central. its very close to the bars and cafes, in addition to the Havatas to access. staff was very helpful and kind. it was very clean. the building is old one and very rustic. its like the staying in the history

the suburb is near the taverns thats why it s a bit noisy not ist not problem.

At first, very convenient location with walking distance from ferry boat and Havaist bus stop. The room is not big but very cozy, bathroom has everything you need ,including toothpaste, hairdryer, shampoo etc. There are a lot of bars and restaurants around. I didn't hear any disturbing noise from the restaurant as some people wrote, just usual sounds from the streets It was very good stay (2 nights) and Kadykey area is my favorite now.

Breakfast time could be earlier, cos 9 am is a bit late for breakfast
