91%Nobel Hostel

nice clean hostel and helpful staff. lacks common areas but being in sultanahmet plenty to see out and about rather than hanging around hostel anyway. great option for a quiet welll located hostel.

the location is right near the action of tourism. but not close to the entertainment. Staff should learn more about their area, and what is happening in and around the city. The shower on the 3rd floor was either extreme hot or freezing cold. Breakfast was by far the best thing about our stay.

A relatively small hostel, staff very friendly & helpful - lent me an umbrella when I lost mine, full of useful info - free towels, good breakfast, basic but does everything you need, and clean. And a roof terrace with an amazing view while enjoying breakfast! Only downsides are no common room (but the roof terrace is a good place to chat to people) and relatively expensive airport transfers - book one via a nearby travel agency instead.close

Dont let driver get confused with 'The Best Nobel Hotel' which is about 2km walk back to the actual 'Nobel Hostel'. When there, Great Location. Friendly staff at desk, ladies not so friendly at breakfast. Small place, crummy shared bathrooms, but best views to the Blue Mosque from Breakfast...

Overall: great place, I would come here again if I visit Istanbul next time.close
