Right in front of blue mosque and 5 to 10 minutes walk from almost anything. Location wise this would be the best hotel, staff is really nice, area around is expansive, the rooms are a bit on the small size so with kids its a little cramped. Other than that nice and convenient location,

The location of this hotel is the very best - right on hippodrome plaza. Our room faced the plaza, across from the blue mosque. The shuttle to and from the airport was great, just bear in mind the shuttle must be paid for in CASH.

This hotel is centrally located for shopping, restaurants and the historic attractions. We had a birdseye view of the blue mosque. Hotel is picturesque, charming and quaint. The rooftop restaurant is nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. There was a variety of breakfast selections. The room was comfortable. One consideration is the call to prayer that is heard five times per day. Since you are so close to the mosque it can be loud.

It’s all about location location. It’s right on the main mall by the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, German Fountain and more. To sit having breakfast on their top floor overlooking the famous mall was so nice. The staff was so helpful and the restaurant had excellent food. We enjoyed our stay there.

Great location right actoss from the blue mosque! The view from the breakfast is fantastic and the service was really good. Very thin walls make it so you hear every noise from the lobby or other floors all night which bothered my sleep a lot unfortunately.

Amazing location, shops were more affordable around the area. Right infront of the blue mosque. Delicious restaurants on the side street. Lovely host Mr hakem was very kind and welcoming. Room service could've been better as i noticed the bed sheets were not changed for 2 days. However that doesn't make a difference to the overall hotel. It was very lovely and comfortable and everything else what a walking distance.

We stayed at Terra Cave Hotel for 3 nights at the end of November and we loved it. Staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged our airport transfers and all the tours we did while we were in the area. Breakfast was great, with omelettes made fresh on order. Location is close to the centre of the town and you can walk to all the shops and restaurants in 5 mins. We only stayed for two days but we had a great experience in the short time we were there.

Fantastic location

The hotel is located directly at the Sultanahmet Square. Our room had a view of the Constantine Column and the Blue Mosque. All the main tourist attractions are within 5 to 20 minutes walking distance. The interior of the room was lovely. The front desk staff is very friendly and efficient. We will definitely stay here again.
