family run hotel in the perfect location for seeing the main sights of Istanbul. It is just a few minutes walk from historic Mosques, the Topaki Palace and the Grand Bazaar. Excellent transport links to see the rest of the city. Tram and Metro nearby. The rooms are clean. The breakfast is good. Fresh bread, cheese, cereal, pastries, tea, coffee and fruit juices. However the best aspect of the hotel is the staff. The owner is a former wrestler whose trophies and medals are displayed in the reception/breakfast room. Special mention must be made of the lovely young lady who serves breakfast. She is so kind and will tell you lots of information on Istanbul and is genuinely interested in what you've done and experienced in Istanbul. I highly recommend the Arife Sultan Hotel.
