The location of the hotel is just perfect - next to Topkapi Palace, Gulhane Park, Hagia Sophia Mosque, Blue Mosque, Egyptian Obelisk.

Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Gulhane park, Sahil are 2 min walk from Hotel!

A 3 minute walk from Haghia Sophia, Gulhane park and Blue Mosque.

Gulhane Park entrance is also only a brief 5 minute walk and this is a must visit.

The bathroom is also small, and the shower is enclosed in a small circular area like if you look a cruise ship voyage and had those showers.

A previous review mentioned the shower was too small - this person must’ve been the size of a small elephant as I am 6foot and quite hefty yet the shower was perfect.

However,single rooms are a little tight on space planning.The toilets are very small !

but we were disappointed to see that the room is hyper small, bathroom is also small and bed is double.

although the bathroom was a little too small.

On the down side the rooms were a bit small

Namely non-sound-proof walls, a small room with no view, occasional sewer smells, lack of storage space, and unsatisfactory breakfast selection (which, to be fair, is to be expected at a smaller hotel).

The room we had for 6 nights was small, (standard double) that we booked on Expedia.

The only draw back is the rooms are somewhat small (which is ok) and have little to no storage space (this is the biggest challenge- no counter space to store your belongings between days).

The rooms are small (think London) and the hotel has no other amenities like a pool or fitness center etc.

though the room was on the small side; albeit within minutes of the hagia sofia and blue mosque.

The hotel is small and I think just has 14 rooms.

Great location, Excellent Staff and While experience with the Whitehouse was Excellent!!!

If you want something different from the Hilton/Hyatt experience give the White House a try.

Great people, really appreciate your help and hospitality.

In particular, shout out to Halil and Mert who really went out of their way with their kindness and hospitality.

All in all, this is by far the best hotel to stay in Istanbul, especially if you have a time crunch since this hotel is walking distance from all major landmarks and they have the best hospitality!

The White House hotel is a very special and lovely experience!

A really nice hotel with the best service we ever experienced.

It was a sweet experience and the best location.

The staff has that Turkish hospitality - very professional and warm at the same time.

We made sure to watch sunset while having our delicious apple tea every night Best of all, their staff were top-notch in hospitality and were quick to help us with anything we needed including airport transportation and directions.

It also provides consistent boutique hospitality.

This hotel is best gem in Istanbul and you must have this experience too.

Both the hospitality, as well as the service was top.

Wowww to the highest hospitality, this place has ticked all the boxes for me in terms of accommodation.

This hotel provides you the best of the best service because I experienced the best service in my whole life in this hotel

The terrace view of the Hagia Sophia was an amazing sight to take in.

Very  nice breakfast every morning on the top of the hotel terrace that over looked Istanbul.

Friendly and courteous staff, wonderful location for easy access to main sites and tram, and amazing breakfast on terrace.

The breakfast terrace has a gorgeous view on St Sofia.

Good breakfast buffet selection at a roof top terrace with good view of the historic places and monuments.

The views from the terrace alone over Istanbul is worth the stay.

There was a good and varied breakfast on offer on the roof terrace which had lovely views.

Breakfast on the roof terrace under the gaze of the Hagia Sophia a perfect start to the day.

The hotel terrace offers the most attractive view of old Istanbul while enjoying the famous Turkish apple tea.

From the moment we walked in the door the personal service was exceptional!

We later walked by around 10 am and there were large crowds of people waiting to get in, baking in the oppressive heat.

The location worked very well, allowing us to walk to everything we wanted to see and do.

A few minutes walk from the Blue Mosque and Hippodrome.

The location was perfect, 7 minutes walk to the main attractions (Aya Sofia, the blue mosque) and to the tram station.

negative: the walls are too thin so you can here people next to you and it makes noisy, the price is a little high for what it is.

Tourist attractions ; What we did not expect was that it has a historic abandoned hamam in front, Old Hagia Sofia (read about it :) ) and Old city walls in 1 mins walk.

Only downside is the thin walls and street noise

Walls are fairly thin as you can hear your neighbors,

Walls are extremely thin and you can easily hear a conversation next door or even the tv.

staying experience

Location is great - mostly closed off street open to pedestrian traffic, right next to Gulhane park, tram and metro stops, walking distance to major tourist landmarks - Topkapi palace, Hagia Sofia, Basilica Cisterns, Blue Mosque, Egyptian & Grand Bazaars, hammams and bridges.

The location is outstanding; across from Gulhane Park, steps from Sultanahmet (where the Blue Mosque & Ayasofya are), traffic free street.

It is within walking distance to many of the tourist sites, such as the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque.

Topkapi Palace is in easy walking distance, as is Haya Sofia, the Blue Mosque, the Egyptian Bazar, and many restaurants and shops.

but unheard from the hotel, and you're a short walk to the Aya Sophia, Blue Mosque, and other sites in one direction, a short walk in the other direction to Eminonu, the ferry piers, Galata Bridge, New Mosque and Rustem Pasa, Gulhane Park a minute away, and both touristy and non-touristy shopping and restaurants everywhere.

Despite being located close to the center of the heavily trafficked Sultan Ahmet area (Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, museums, ferries, waterfronts), this hotel is on a quiet street and overlooking Gulhane Park, yielding a very peaceful and beautiful experience, especially if you can get a balcony room.

It is close to most tourist attractions like Ayasofya, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi, Gulhane Park and so on.., close to the tram station and 3 minutes from Bosforus, where you can catch a boat to any another destination on the asian side of the city.

So close to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, specially in terms of hospitality so nice.

but quiet hotel, a very short walk to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Galata Bridge and water transport.

The hotel is in the perfect location for visiting the main attractions including Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, Spice Market, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace museum etc.

This stylish boutique hotel is located next to the grounds of Topkapi Palace and is within walking distance of all the sites in old Istanbul—Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Hippodrome, Basilica Cistern, and Grand Bazaar.

but if its your first time in Istanbul, stay at one of the hotels closer to the blue mosque that has a roof top terrace.

walk to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and many other prominent sights.

10 minutes to the Spice Bazaar and the Blue Mosque and 5 minutes from Topkapi and across the street from the beautiful Gulhane Park.

It is located with easy walking distance of the Topkapi Palace and a very short tram journey to St Sophia and the Blue Mosque.

The hotel is in a wonderful part of the city - a short walk to the Aya Sofya, Blue Mosque and Grand Bazaar.

The hotel is a short walk to Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque, and Sultanahmet’s delights, and a short walk in the other direction takes you to the Bosphorus and Golden Horn.

It was very quiet, and it as wonderful to be able to look into this park and to step out the door of the hotel and walk just five minutes to get to the Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque.

Topkapi Palace is just right across the street and Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque were just further up the hill.

It is in the heart of the old city, so close to all the major attractions:  Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace etc.

I was escorted to my room in the elevator!

but it works, especially with three elevators.

I was unaware that elevators for one wing of the hotel are accessed by going down a few (3?) stairs.

They are all so welcoming and friendly and go that extra mile to make your stay a great one (one even saw the tea me at breakfast and quickly swapped it out for a much better one without any ask - it’s little gestures like this that really adds to the experience).

The waitressing staff are polite and very friendly-thank you Sukru for helping me with the trams & Fathime, Celine & Sukru for the friendly hello every morning.

I stay in this hotel several times because its my favorite in location every thing is near to it marmary  and the tram station and its  rooms very clean and comfortable with excellent breakfast  and very friendly staff

We loved the cooking class he did for us (free) and the friendly staff.

Words can’t explain the how kind the staff are in this hotel, they are so friendly caring and helpful in every single way.

My husband spilled a glass of wine on the floor on the rooftop, and Sercan came up, cleaned it, and brought him a new glass, all with a friendly smile, assuring him it was no problem.

Perfect location- near to Hagia Sofia, metro station Sirkeci and tram staitiin Gulhane, perfect staff- very kind, friendly and helpful, perfect food for the breakfast, perfect rooms - big, clean and comfortable.

Jamilya at the front desk was helpful, efficient, and friendly both in making my reservation and greeting me in person.

And  extremely friendly staff which go out of your way to meet your every need.

They are so friendly and help you with everything.

All the staff are friendly and kind and truly work to offer comfort, orientation, and a home base from which to explore the massive city.

It’s in the old historic Centre near the Hagia Sophia & Gülhane Park area so it’s a great for walking to mosques of interest and the Grand Bazaar too.

The hotel is located right in the market place, walking distances to the famous mosques and Grand Bazaar.

Sikerci Mansion Hotel in Istanbul is centrally situated to the Grand Bazaar and Harbour.

Sirkeci Mansion is a boutique hotel within walking distance from Istanbul’s main attractions such as Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace or Grand Bazaar.

The prices are cheaper compared to Grand Bazaar and they have a huge collection.

Located in a very convenient location in Old Istanbul within walking distance of the most famous historic sites, including Hagia Sophia and Grand Bazaar.

but you can walk (5-15 minutes) to all the highlights as Hagia Sofia, Topkapi Palace, Sultan Ahmetmoskee, Grand Bazaar, etc.

The location is perfect:30metres from the tram station and 2 stops away from the Grand Bazaar.

On the top of that it is conveniently located within walking distance from the Blue Mosque, and the Grand Bazaar.

The Grand Bazaar is 20 minute walk or two trams stops (5 mins).

Central to all the "big ticket" tourist attractions, walking distance from the Grand Bazaar.

The location is excellent being on the doorstep of Topkapi palace, Blue mosque and the Aya Sophiya as well as the grand bazaar.

It is about a 7-10 minute walk the other direction to either the Grand Bazaar or the Spice Market.

You can walk to everything from Sophia Hagia, Blue mosque, Grand Bazaar and more.

Great location, walking distance from Grand Bazaar, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Bosporus, etc etc.

The hotel is in a fabulous location in the Old Town, minutes walk from all the major attractions, fabulous restaurants the Grand Bazaar and shopping.

It is perfectly situated near the tram or easy for walking to sites in the old city such as the Grand Bazaar, Hagai Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and a bit further away to the Chora museum or across the Golden Horn to Galata Tower and Taksim Square.

You are down the street from the tram stop, across the street from Gulhane Park, and a ~ 5-minute walk from Topkapi Palace and the archaelogical museum.

Take the time to explore the roof terrace, good views of the Bosphorus and Gulhane Park.

Gulhane Park is right infront of the hotel, its a short walk to Galata bridge (great for fish restaurants) and Eminönü ferry pier (for ferries to other parts of Istanbul and a lot of atmosphere).

Unbeatable location opposite the green Gulhane park and short walk to both tram and Marmaray stations, we lived in the atmospheric Sirkeci area

Excellent little hotel, ideally placed in a quiet street in the old town next to beautiful Gulhane Park.

Near Gulhane Park, and close to the Bosforus.

The hotel is a stone throws away from the tram station and equally close to a Gulhane park that holds within it such an impressive Science and Technology Museum.

Our room was charming and spacious, with a lovely view of Gulhane Park.

The hotel is on a quiet street that runs beside Gulhane Park.

The Superior room was amazing with balcony and views of the Gulhane park and exactly as shown in the pictures.

Room was perfect, high up and with a view over the Gulhane Park.

From the window overlooking the street you could see Gulhane Park, listen to the birds at play, observe the shops below – yet the drapes were practically soundproof, and closing them allowed a quiet night of undisturbed sleep.

This small hotel is located on a quiet side street overlooking the Gulhane Park.

Our comfortable, spacious suite on the top floor overlooked the tranquil gardens of Gulhane Park.

but found that, with our experience, it wasn't reflective of  the many positive comments..  bit outdated interior and furniture but maybe preferable to some guests who looking for that.. small rooms with some with no views.

but remember your in Europe were most of the hotel rooms are small but not as small as Asia.

From the moment we walked in, we were genuinely and warmly greeted at the front desk by Araz.

He is happy to make reservations for pretty much anything, and he conducts in-depth tours (complementary to hotel guests, with culinary walk adding a nominal fee) that you should definitely join.

The hotel has a very convenient location for walking around all the great sights of Istanbul.

I found this place by accident as I was walking through the city.

You can also walk to the Spice Bazaar and Grand Bazzaar.

Would definitely stay here again as it is so well situated to walk to everything and a great array of restaurants nearby without having to wander too far in the evenings.

If you dont like to walk, you have a tram stop just about 50 meters away, and Marmary train station also close by.

It was perfect experience,  hotel location is great , staff are very coperative abd speak english very well , rooms are comfortable  clean and have nice view .1 minute walking to Gulhana Tram ( T1) and 5 minutes walking to sirkeci Marmaray .

The manager of the hotel, Okay, is wonderful and provides some very interesting walking tours of the city which are free and provide a great insight into this culturally fascinating city.

Easy to walk around the late evening considering we were here only for a few hours

Such a wonderful experience 
The best location in the old city quite street yet walk to every important site !

its 10 minutes to the sultanahmet mosque square and the hagia sofia and 10 minutes walk from the grand bazar and the misri bazar and the eminuno station.

The location is central and easy to walk to the old Town major attractions.
