Sokullu Pasa Hotel - Special Class

Proplem for AC

We stayed at the Sokhullu Pasa as part of a BA holiday package. The hotel was good value, and well located in the Sultanahmet area, just a 5-minute walk to the Blue Mosque, with a multitude of reasonably priced cafes and restaurants nearby. Our particular favourites were the Arch Restaurant for dinner, and the Rabbit Hole cafe for coffee and breakfast options. Prior to arrival we contacted the hotel to upgrade to a Superior room, which was beautifully decorated in traditional style, located on the 4th floor, with a lovely sea view, and importantly the room was very warm, and was a welcome retreat from a snowy Istanbul in February. Do bear in mind that if you book any extras (room upgrades, tours) direct with hotel, then they prefer cash payment in Euros, so best to come with plenty of cash to avoid getting ripped off by local ATMs. We weren’t impressed by the self service breakfast offering: the “hot” options (boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, and potatoes were barely lukewarm) and the Turkish meze items looked unappetising. In addition, the hotel staff were not particularly welcoming or hospitable, however we must commend housekeeping, as our room was always immaculately clean, and towels regularly changed

A retro style hotel run by the Nicest people and staff you could wish to meet . Helpful generous with their time. Made our stay a friendly warm occasion. Very close to all touristy hotspots. Plenty of smaller restaurants close by. Some serving alcohol. I was let down by my Insurance company STAYSURE Regarding an injury I sustained but the hotel proprietor arganised a walking stick for me. Much to my relief. And assistance. Thank you.. Great views out to sea from our room.

We recently stayed at Sokullu Pasa for 5 nights with family of eight and had an excellent experience.The room was clean and well equipped with all the basic amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to assist with any request. Special mention of Mr. Farat who was very kind and my guide to plan our family outing to any of the shopping areas and restaurants near by. The breakfast had a good spread. The hotel's location was perfect, close to all the histrorical attractions of Istanbul, unlimited restaurant options within walking distance and short walk to the beautiful water front area. Some rooms give a great view of the Sea. The hotel being in Fatih has a little hilly terrain. The Munhani restaurant attached to Sokullu Pasa serves great local cuising. Uber can be easy called online using the hotel wifi even if you don't have a local SIM or data. I would highly recommed Sokullu Pasa hotel for anyone looking for a relaxing and well organised stay!

Sokullu Pasa is family-run by long-serving staff who are friendly, considerate and obliging. A well-presented breakfast, a variety of food for all tastes plus quick and efficient service by waiters, Mehmet and Fahti. The hotel is well maintained and furnished Turkish style. Rooms are immaculately serviced daily by two exceptionally helpful ladies and certain rooms overlook the Bospherous. There is no bar, however, the hotel does not object to the consumption of personal alcohol, provides glasses, ice etc., then enjoy your drinks in the pleasant garden so bring/buy your own supplies. The hotel is centrally located in the old town and convenient for the main attractions. I would also suggest organising transfers and tours through the hotel which provides a reliable service. Highly recommended. This was a BA organised five-night break.

We travelled to Istanbul for a long weekend and stayed at the sokullu Pasa hotel. It is very clean and tidy, and beautifully authentic. The rooms were cleaned every day and fresh water put in our fridge every day, a nice touch! The breakfast was varied with lots of choice, if they had crossiants it would have been perfect. Staff were helpful at all times. Highly recommend this hotel
