Good Carvan Hotel
It's a very nice hotel, it's small. The atmosphere is homely, cozy with them. We were there for 11 days (we came to celebrate the anniversary of our wife and never regretted it). Friendly and sincere staff, will tell you what and how, will help in everything. For Istanbul, the breakfasts are just great, everything is fresh. It is worth noting that a coffee machine with different types of decent coffee, as well as lemonade and water in the cooler is available around the clock and free of charge. The room is small (106), but in Istanbul it is needed just to sleep. There is always hot water, a kettle, air conditioning and a refrigerator work flawlessly, TV has hundreds of channels, the Olympics were on 823 and 824 channels, by the way. There are no complaints about cleaning, the Armenian family cleans, changes and replenishes what is needed flawlessly. In general, there is nothing to complain about, except that there is no safe, but it is not particularly needed. The decency of the owners and the sense of security are beyond doubt. The main attractions are within walking distance, to the tram stop T1 (the main artery for tourists) Nothing at all. There will be an opportunity to visit Istanbul again, of course we will stay at the Carvan Hotel, the price-quality ratio is completely satisfied.

We stayed at the hotel in early October
The location is very convenient, tram stop, bazaar, shops, square with the Blue Mosque is a 10-minute walk away. Nearby there are exchangers, cafes and supermarkets
The rooms are cozy and small. There is a refrigerator with bottles of water, a kettle with coffee, cups, a hairdryer, slippers and shower accessories. An iron could be requested from the receptionist. The cleanliness was not very pleasant, there were a lot of long blond hair ...
as it turned out, there was no terrace with a view or it was closed🤷♀️ Very sorry
Another bad impression was left by the cute mice who stubbornly tried to scratch a hole through the ceiling into our room. During the week, day and night, they tried hard) fell asleep to squeaks
We chose the hotel because of the breakfast, it is really very good, 10 out of 10, very satisfying and varied. Tea, coffee from the vending machine and water could be taken at any time in unlimited quantities
The reception is very friendly 👍

I want to share my impressions about the hotel and in general about Istanbul and our short stay here. We had a rest in August 2024. The room is decent enough, everything is in it, even slippers are provided, a hairdryer, a kettle, tea, coffee, a set of towels. The room was cleaned every day. Clean , no smells. There was a Smart room in our room (room 103) , in the evenings we watched movies of our choice. Special thanks to the woman who fed us breakfast, very tasty, varied, personal respect , her name is Istella, she is Filipino👍 In general, the staff 👍I advise the hotel, it is within walking distance to the main facilities 💃 Now about Istanbul, the sights are of course cool, worth a look. In general, the city has one big market- a bazaar. It's not cheap. To eat for lunch for 2 people, without frills, about 3,000 lira, it is in the region of 7000 rubles, it is expensive (for example, one second course, a salad for each and a Glass of beer), so prepare the money. There are local supermarkets, prices are like in Russia in principle, but there is nothing ready, only dried milk, fruits and vegetables. In general, it is colorful. Have a nice trip.🇹🇷
