Simply phenomenal stay
Had a exquisite stay at Hotellino. The location is absolutely perfect: A stone’s throw from the Sirkeci tram station and Eminönü ferry terminals, so it was easy to explore all parts of the city, but also only a 10-minute walk from the sights of Sultanahmet: the Haga Sofia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi palace and the Basilica Cistern, so you can easily head there in the morning and get there before the crowds and queues, e.g. at a pace of one per day like we did. The Hocapaca food strip is also really close and it had really solid food option, (e.g. Sehzade kebab and Balkan lokantasi)
The hotel and rooms are modern, spotless and very pleasant. The staff is really friendly, we felt welcome and at home immediately. They’re also helpful and knowledgeable, advising us on public transport options and helping me track down restaurants that were serving some specific Turkish dishes I was hoping to try (e.g. manti). They’re also very child-friendly!
Would definitely recommend Hotellino to anyone travelling to Istanbul!
