    • Apex hotel is a perfect Istanbul experience. Clean rooms, very comfy beds, and friendly service. They were able to help me get situated and find taxis etc. The breakfast was amazing. I wish I could eat like that every morning. The location is perfect.
    • I had a more than delightful stay at the Apex hotel. The staff was more than accommodating. During the night, there was a power outage, and the staff gave each room candles. I even got a $10 refund. I would definitely stay there again!

    Cons -

    • I wish i could've stayed longer
    • The room was nothing like in the pictures, it was very small. Toilet had foul smell, and whole room would smel awfully. In room it was too hot even though it was 10 degree outside and we had to sleep with window open that was right next to bed. It is good only for stidents that will be there for 3 days.
    • Our room was on the ground floor so it was a bit noisy being near the front desk and breakfast room. The room was a bit sparse,but functional. I would recommend staying on an upper floor if you can handle stairs as there is no elevator.

    The location was fabulous. Within walking distance to all the important places in old Istanbul.Abdullah at the front desk was fabulous! Very kind and helpful. The breakfast lady and room maid were very nice even though they spoke no English and I spoke no Turkish.

    Our room was on the ground floor so it was a bit noisy being near the front desk and breakfast room. The room was a bit sparse,but functional. I would recommend staying on an upper floor if you can handle stairs as there is no elevator.

    Amazing location and friendly staff

    Linen was average but nothing to complain about

    6ChristopherPosted on: 4-20-2025

    The young men on the desk are very nice and the lady prepares a good breakfast spread. The rooms are comfortably furnished and the WiFi is good.

    The showers in both our rooms, on the 2nd and 3rd floors, were bad. On full they switched between cold and hot. It was only possible to get a nice temperature with a low water flow. The bathroom on the 2nd floor smelt bad, probably because of a blocked drain.Other hotels in this area (SultanAhmet) serve breakfast on the roof terrace, but Apex serves it on the ground floor. The breakfast room and terrace are fine, but not as good as having a view of the sea.

    good for groups, close to center/shops, good communication with staff, close to transport (everyone must go to Asian side too for food/souvenirs at better prices). very comfortable beds

    perhaps breakfast could be more diversified + noisy fan in the bathroom while activated + a few minor renovations would be needed apart from the ones already done

    Firstly, the location is really great, which is nearby Aya Sophia and Blue Mosque. Also, a lot of restaurants and shops. The staff are polite and they provide fresh towels everyday. The breakfast is very nice and I like it so much.

    8WanPosted on: 1-9-2025

    This hotel located at Sultanahmet area which is nearby to all the attractions like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, 7 hill restaurant and all. The tram station (Sultanahmet) also very close just 5 min walking distance. Lot of restaurants nearby, don’t worry if you’re hungry. The hotel is cute and cozy! They have the rooftop view which you can go there to see the sunrise and sunset! Thank you Arif for helping me during the stay. Surely all the staff are very kind, I am happy to say that. :)

    They don’t have elevator. So, be prepared for a little warm up. But the staff will help you to carry your bags. No worries

    9MaryPosted on: 1-7-2025

    The staff was so kind and the breakfast was amazing. Great coffee from the machine too.

    3AliaPosted on: 12-23-2024

    The only thing great about the hotel is its location. Breakfast was okay and can be improved by adding different options and make slight changes to the menu instead of serving exact same food everyday. Room was quite small. Bathroom was a big disappointment. Very small shower area and had mold.

    Bathroom needs a big upgrade

    7Stephen K.Posted on: 11-21-2024

    Great location in heart of Sultanamet, easy walk to Mosques & Parks. Pleasant staff.Arranged for taxi to airport @ reasonable price. My top floor room had great view of city & sea

    Several times at very early and/or late hours there was considerable noise (furniture moving) on the roof deck just inches above me. I also struggled with the long walk up stairs (no elevator) to my room, Probably my fault for not reading the description of then hotel more carefully.

    8VanessaPosted on: 11-15-2024

    The location was great, and staff was really helpful and friendly. I was in a room located on the third floor, and it was spacious and very quiet.

    10LancelotPosted on: 11-3-2024

    A quality stay at this hotel. Booked for 4 nights/5 days and worth every cent! Ideal location and within easy walking distance of most ferries and markets/mosques. Great restaurants located within five minutes walk from the hotel.

    10MirelaPosted on: 11-2-2024

    Everyone at the hotel is very nice and helpful. The food is very good and they take in consideration if someone has food allergies.

    Nothing, everything was very good.

    9RussellPosted on: 10-13-2024

    The room was light and airey, with a large window to enjoy the view and catch some sea breeze. A big, comfortable bed, a rooftop terrace with magical views and a huge, varied breakfast. Great friendly staff too.

    Getting woken up early by the call to prayer, but everywhere would have that same experience.

    8DavidPosted on: 10-2-2024

    Location good. Bed comfortable. Staff great. Great views. Fab breakfast !

    Shower pressure low, didn't work properly when you turned up the temperature.

    7NastassiaPosted on: 9-24-2024

    The property location was very good! Recommend it if you’re planning your visit for several days and want to see as many famous places as possible.The staff was very nice and friendly offering help and advice if needed.Breakfast included was also quite diverse and enough for such price of the stay.And can’t mention the terrace view from the hotel roof, it’s really beautiful:)

    Cleanliness of bathroom was not good enough, so recommend to take your home slippers for this case.. Additionally, there were 3 of us (girls) and leaving us with 1 toilet paper pique us to ask for it .. Another problem was the safe deposit box: be ready that it will not work and you will have to take all your stuff with you. We even locked our money and passports inside without chance to open it after, so had to ask for the help at reception desk (finally they open, but with a special key). They brought us another one but it didn’t work either, so till the rest of our stay we were without the safe.

    Staff very friendly and helpful, great location - v quiet, but everything you need is round the corner!
