-The location is amazing-this is why we chose this hotel.The T1 tram stop is right outside the front door, and it is within walking distance of the major tourist sites in old town. -View from the small terrace is beautiful, especially at night. -The hotel team were very also helpful with recommendations and organizing our airport transfer, although I would suggest using the metro rather than a car transfer due to the heavy traffic.

Not so much ‘things we didn’t like’, more like things we wish we knew before… We had an economy double which was tiny. I knew it would be small but if you have more than one suitcase each then you will struggle to get round the bed. I would have preferred a larger room, higher up the hotel but was told there was none others available. The noise from the streets is to be expected as the area is lively until late, however, we were based in a room on the side of the hotel above the entrance and adjacent to restaurants, so it seemed extra noisy. Ask for a room on the highest floor to be further away from the noise. Access to the rooftop terrace is by a very small spiral staircase which less mobile people will find challenging to access-but the view is worth the climb!

As someone who has traveled extensively, I can confidently say that the World Heritage Center Hotel in Istanbul is exceptional. My family and I had a superb experience during our stay - the location, convenience, cleanliness, elevator, and hospitality of the staff were all outstanding. Musa, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and provide us with helpful information about the city and even gave us a room upgrade! But what really made our stay unforgettable was the stunning view of the Blue Mosque from the hotel's rooftop and our room. It was a sight to behold, and we spent many moments just taking in the beauty of the mosque and the city. I can't recommend this hotel enough - it truly offers a delightful stay in Istanbul. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, the World Heritage Center Hotel is the perfect choice for an unforgettable experience.

Although the hotel's proximity to the tourist attractions made it a bit loud outside, this did not shadow the amazing features of the hotel. Overall, I highly recommend the World Heritage Center Hotel for an unforgettable stay in Istanbul.

Too many good things to share about this hotel: Location: Literally right in front of Sultanahmet tram stop. Shops, restaurants, money changer are just around the corner Staff: Everyone was very helpful and friendly. Mustafa greeted me when I first arrived and he explained to me the best way to explore Istanbul (including tips on which routes are downhill), while Azat helped to carry my luggages until the tram gate when I departed the hotel. Wifi: Strong wifi. I was told they have just changed to a better service provider a week before I came. Hospitality: They indeed know how to make their guests happy - everyone was served with Ottoman sherbet (and lokum) as welcome drinks Rooftop view: Impressive! You could see Marmara sea from this height. On the second night, I when upstairs to the rooftop. A lady asked if I wanted to have something to drink. I said I left my wallet in the room. She said it is free of charge. She even served me a slice of cake! Safety: I was travelling alone and as a solo lady traveller, I never felt unsafe staying at this hotel. I would definitely recommend this hotel to everyone!

Noise: This is a trade-off of the location. Since it is very close to tramvay, it is expected that it could be a bit loud at night.

booked for my parents. I was gifted with photos of them at the rooftop looking truly happier than ever i can recall. my father had mentioned the manager of the hotel is quick to understand and meet their needs with care. he mentioned the service was great. my mother who is picky over food said the food was pretty good (that’s pretty huge coming from her) they mentioned they were able to walk to all the places. I am so grateful for their hospitality and grateful i got to book two nights for my parents which were the last highlight of my parents Turkey trip.

What a wonderful hotel in the best historical part of Istanbul - all the significant sites are nearby and one can walk to each of them in 5 or 10 minutes. Besides, the hotel is located at the central stop (Sultanahmed) of the main and most useful city tram line (Tram 1), which travels for 17,70 Turkish Liras (0,50 Euros) per person to the Golden Horn bay, Dolmabahce saray and the piers for boats to the Bosphorus and the Princes' Islands. Besides, the main street in front of the hotel is traffic free - no cars are allowed, only trams, so that the hotel is in a kind of oasis of parks, squares, shops, restaurants, mosques and historical sites. Besides, there is an open terrace on the roof of the hotel, where we enjoyed probably the best view of Istanbul, including the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Marmara sea. However, this hotel is not just a location. Rooms and bathrooms, albeit not very large, are comfortable, clean and immaculate. Breakfast buffet (from 8 to 10.30) is generous and tasty. There is a refreshment lobby near the reception on the ground floor with free water, tea, coffee, lemonade and sweets all day long. And for guests with cars they provide free parking nearby, which was priceless to us arriving from Sofia by car. Impeccable cleanliness everywhere and I mean everywhere! Last but not least, the staff, that glorious team of nice boys always ready to help and solve problems with a smile! Çok teşekkür ederim!

The breakfast room is small for the size of the hotel, and when the hotel is full, often there is no available tables there. Not a dramatic issue, because after a couple of minutes a table always gets available.

The most noteworthy aspects are: - The staff, overly friendly and well informed. I want to praise Berat's (the best) professionalism and warmth, with whom I managed to have some very pleasant conversations. - The location is in the heart of the historic center of the city, close to everything. - The accommodation in terms of food and facilities are perfect

The staff.

WiFi was very poor & slow and the breakfast wasn’t good and not much varieties to meet western/continental food. Mood to improve the variety of the food.

The staff was lovely throughout our whole stay. They were very welcoming and provided us with everything we needed, including information on tourism around the city. The location is amazing too, very close to the main tourist spots such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. It is also right in front of the Sultanahmet tram stop, which makes it very convenient to get around. The hotel breakfast was decent too and they also have a refreshment corner in the hotel lounge, which includes cakes, turkish tea and other refreshments. Our room had a lovely view of the blue mosque and overall we are very satisfied with our stay :)

No tissues in the room and the iron was leaking. All was good apart from that

The breakfast was fantastic, many options. As a person with an allergy it would be nice to have some labels, but I was able to find clearly gluten-free options such as eggs and fruits and vegetables. The location is so close to many historical sites. Really nice view from the rooftop. Staff was exceptionally accommodating.

There was some noise from the street. There was also construction during our stay. Not much trouble sleeping with all the walking we did though! Only other thing, it would be nice to have more room for bags in the room and a shelf for personal items in the bathroom.

The staff were very accommodating and friendly. Great location with amazing views of Blue Mosque from our room and of the old town and water from the rooftop outdoor area. Old town attractions within easy walking distance including Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Bascilica Cistern and Topkia Palace and Grand Bazaar. Tram stop right outside for easy access to waterfront and other attractions.

Room was compact as was the restaurant during peak times. It would have more been convenient to open the breakfast room a little earlier for those wanting to visit attractions before the rush of tourists.
