Confusing and costly mistake was made
The hotel is very nice BUT this is NOT on the hotel it is on Hotels.com there are two hotels with the same name in different locations and I mistakenly booked 2 rooms for the same party in different hotels . They belong to the same company. They did not refund me - or rather Hotels.com didn’t

Extremely happy with our stay at the Ferman Hotel in Istanbul. You cannot ask for a better location specifically if you have limited time. Close to all the historical sites. Above all the staff was super helpful. A shout out for Omer, very friendly and helpful gentleman. Our room got upgraded when we arrived at the hotel. I apologize that I don’t remember every one’s name but all staff at the reception and breakfast station was extremely polite, professional and friendly. Thank you for making our stay very pleasant.

The location of this charming hotel is simply unbeatable. Situated in the heart of the historic Old City, it offers easy access to some of Istanbul's most iconic attractions. The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace and the Grand Bazaar were all within a short walking distance. The hotel's reception and staff deserve a special mention for their service. They were always polite and ready to assist with smile and a wealth of local knowledge. I would definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed the service provided by the staff. Always helpful. The breakfast was excellent with a view of the İstanbul skyline. The room was clean and well taken care of. The hotel is conveniently located and most of the attractions in then old city are walking distance. Public transport and restaurants are close by.

Enjoyable stay
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. It is very close to the tram just be five minutes walk. The staff are outstanding, especially I would like to mention Nusret he's at the front desk he's a very helpful person.
At night, there was not that much noise from outside what helps as Istanbul is a very busy place.

The hotel is in the best location. So many local restaurants to choose from, and a walk away from the sea shore. Really safe area with tourists around. The hotel itself was wonderful, the staff were welcoming and absolutely helpful. Their English skills are better then mine as a native speaker. The staff know the area well and give honest advice. Have told my whole family to visit the Ferman Hotel.

Hotel upgraded our stay for 4 nights to a suite that had a balcony and view of the sea. Each and every staff members were helpful and attentive to all our needs. Breakfast in the mornings had a great selection of Turkish and non Turkish food. The best part of our stay was the view from the rooftop deck. We got great tips on where to eat by the staff. Thank you all for a memorable trip!
