I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was a decent size, with a balcony and very clean. The location is great with walking to a grand bazaar and the big attractions & mosques. The hotel even provided access to book a shuttle to hotel/airport, which was convenient. Breakfast was great, lots to choose from and the view from 6 floor is great at sunrise. Floor 5 can be nosey with the chairs in morning breakfast.

If you are in Istanbul for visiting the historic sites, there is no better location than the Rast Hotel. Within 10 minute walk of Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and the Grand Bazaar. Very close to the T1 tram line that can take you to Galata Tower. And the terrace breakfast is really good, especially to enjoy it with spectacular views. But the best part of the hotel is the hard working and attentive staff and particularly Mr. Bayram at reception. We would highly recommend this hotel.

I enjoyed the stay at Rast Hotel a lot , the location is awesome , in the heart of Sultanahmet but in the quite street , the stuff were very friendly, helpful and nice , Sevgi and Gökhan host a nice breakfast with the absolutely incredible view on Blue mosque and AyaSofia .The rooftop is panoramic so U can also see Suleymanie . From my room balcony i also had the opportunity to see Ayasofya, can’t be more happier with choosing this hotel

10/10

We stayed at Rast for a long weekend to do some sight seeing and soak up the culture of Istanbul. The hotel was in a great location just round the corner from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. Despite being in the perfect tourist location it was quiet so we had no problem sleeping. The reception staff were really helpful -providing maps and advice about where to go and they even phoned a restaurant for us to say we were running late. The breakfast was lovely -with many options (meze, cooked breakfast and continental). The views from the restaurant on the 6th floor were amazing-it looks right over the mosques and the city! We ended up sitting there for ages just taking them in. The staff were all helpful and smiley.
