Very nice and helpful staff, comfortable room and bed, good breakfast buffet.
Excellent location. 2 minutes walk from Hagia Sophia and Blue mosque. Comfortable and functional rooms. Could not fault the friendliness of the hosts and their willingness to help and accommodate your needs. Will stay there in the future for sure.
Basic hotel, but very comfortable, clean, great breakfast buffet with views to the mosque , staff friendly and welcoming.
Just three minutes walking to Hagia Sophia and others tourist attraction in Istanbul.
Safe area, next to Four Seasons hotel and in front of Seven Hills hotel .
This property was comfortable but offered bare minimum. No added touches. Thin towels. Scratchy bed cover. No water in room. Breakfast again bare minimum. Lovely fresh bread was annnacception. Inside was a bit noisy when other guests came home. But generally quiet. Staff though were excellent.
An amazing experience at Side hotel with friendly and helpful staff, specially Emre, Younis and Mansoor were amazing. The chef was extra hospitable and was making every effort to give us the best.
The only thing was our fridge wasn’t working and upon request they said the fridges aren’t of good quality to keep things cool.
The rest of experience was amazing.
Side Hotel was an overall excellent choice, from the location to the support from the friendly staff. Was a great choice for a first time stay in Instanbul.
