Ring Stone Hotels Old City - Special Class

Staff the best. Kind and welcoming Building A rooms are great , with superb view!

The hotel is in a fantastic location - we had a good view from our room, breakfast was exceptional and the staff were lovely and very helpful.

All was great!

Our stay at Ring Stone Old City was wonderful. Perfect location to easily get around, fair pricing, the staff were particularly the highlight; Gokhan, the main person at the reception, was the best. He made sure we had everything we needed, he answered all of our questions, he helped with our itinerary and improved our experience in Istanbul, he worked very hard to help us retrieve our lost luggage from the airport, he was flexible and allowed us to add on to our stay when our travel plans changed, and he was very thoughtful and kind by providing us food when we had an early morning ride to the airport. The rest of the staff including those at breakfast, the other people at the reception, and the cleaners, were all pleasant and wonderful to interact with. I would recommend this stay at any time. 100/10 experience.

Convenient location, within walking distance of many of the sights we were in Istanbul to see. The neighborhood was safe with a police presence just down on the corner.

The room we were assigned was literally at/off the front door of the hotel lobby. Very convenient with all the luggage we had with us, but very inconvenient with you hearing EVERYTHING that goes on in the lobby or out on the street in front of the hotel. This included every person checking in/out of the hotel as well as the mating wild cats in the late afternoon. Istanbul is a city of cats, just so you know. Most annoying were the lobby chairs right out in front of the door to our room which always seemed to be occupied by people coming and going and their luggage we would have to walk around to leave our room. The worst however, was when a friend of the night time manager showed up late one night and proceeded to talk at the top of his lungs for about 30 min (around 11 pm) before I got dressed and went out signaling to the manager to tone it down, which he immediately had his friend do. Bottom line: turn down this room. We stayed there 4 nights and I should have done it, but my wife talked me out of it.
