Was a really nice hotel, clean and friendly staff. The only problem was we were not pre warned about building works in the area. We were woken up early every day of our stay with very loud drilling and banging.

The Nowy Efendi Hotel's absolutely best selling point is its incredible location -- it is literally 10 min walk away from two of the Istanbul's main tourist sightseeing destinations: Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque. In fact, Hagia Sofia is so close that one can enjoy the view of this incredibly historical Church from the breakfast room! The rooms are pretty good, especially given the prices they charge (we paid less than $100/night for a room with 3 beds -- a pretty good deal IMHO!). The only thing that hotel could consider improving (though not a significant drawback) is the quality of its breakfast. It was OK, but not great. Other than that -- this hotel offers a very good value for money -- I highly recommend it!!!

The best thing about this property is the location. It’s less than 5 mins walk to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basillica Cistern, and Sultanahmet Tram Station. Plus there were tons of restaurants nearby. The neighborhood felt fairly safe. Our room was very clean, but a bit dated. The furniture was a little old and worn, and the walls had no decoration. However everything was exceptionally clean and comfortable, and the bathroom seemed updated. I definitely would stay here again the next time I’m in Istanbul.

Istanbul Trip
Staff were amazing, always ready to help. They even offered apple tea while waiting for other people to finish checking in/out. Special mention to Burcu who helped us not only with the airport transfer, but more importantly, with the luggage transfer to another hotel for our land tour. Burcu came to our rescue when taxis and Uber rejected us. She arranged for the transport service. Hotel is close to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and other sites, as well as, to stores and restaurants. It is walking distance to the Tram station. Breakfast has a good selection. We had an excellent experience during our stay at Nowy Efendi and will gladly recommend it to our friends.

The location.of the property was excellent 5 out 5.. everything was close by walking distance. Staff were friendly and answered our every question. Breakfast was good but could have done with more of a range of food. Also when giving prices for transfers they should state that 55 euros return actually means 55 goin n another 55 comin back not 55 in total for both ways. Which is what we thought until we asked further questions.. Overall a very good hotel in the perfect location.

The property is conveniently located next to the blue mosque and other sites around Sultanhamet. Local Sok supermarket is 30 seconds away and all restaurants and fast food are within walking distance, literary 1 minute. Tram is close and Metro is not too far from the hotel either. When we arrived, the rooms were clean and cleaned every day to an excellent standard. The hotel is very clean, with a very nice lobby, has super friendly staff and went above and beyond when we wanted our room changed, luckily there were a few rooms available at the time for a swap. The reception staff were very understanding and delivered an exceptional service and got us swapped over. This was my third visit to the hotel and hopefully, there will be many more.
