Sokullu Pasa Hotel - Special Class

Staff was friendly and the afternoon manager was really good, new the tech stuff and perfect English. Breakfast was included and you couldn’t get a better meal. Super nice place

Great staff the best

Nice and clean, we were happy overall!

We were debating between this hotel and another, but I am SO happy we chose Sokulla Pasa. The location is a quick walk (a little hilly but great for some pre-sightseeing exercise) to Obelisk of Theodosius, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilisca Cistern, and much more in the area. It is just on the outskirts of the busy area, so you can expect it to be a tad quieter. However, there are still plenty of restaurants, rooftops, shops, and mini markets within a 5-minute walk radius. Train stops are also about 8-10 minute walk away if you're looking to go to the Karakoy side. Rooms give off the classic Ottoman vibes, and my AC worked great. The main reason I am absolutely happy with my stay here was the staff. The attentiveness and kindness from the staff was great, from the front desk, servers, night shift, and cleaning personnel. Shoutout to Fati and Mehmed, they were extremely helpful during check in, breakfast, check out, and if we ever needed anything. The seating areas outside are comfortable and we spent hours relaxing when we needed a break from walking around and sightseeing. My favorite part of breakfast was mixing their Halva and hazelnut butter and spreading it on their Simit bread (Turkish sesame bread). I would absolutely recommend people to stay here if they are wanting to stay in the Sultanahmet area.
