    Since the location is in the heart of a busy neighborhood, there was some normal street noise, but that was also part of the charm.

    The location was excellent! Since it was within walking distance of the Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar, and countless restaurants, it made my short stay in Istanbul better than expected.

    The staff and breakfast in this hidden gem of the hotel is the best thing about it. Also you get to stay in the central area of Sultanahmedt where you are close to most of the touristy visits. I recommend this hotel if you want the best value for your money.

    The hotel is quite small overall and does not have a large sign outside it making it hard to find initially. There is no elevator and the staircase is steep and twists with narrow steps. The only other thing is to avoid the restaurants and shops around the hotel as they are very expensive and poor quality tourist traps.

    Very nice hotel. Very good location slightly downhill from the blue mosque. Very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are clean and well equipped. Turkish breakfast is nice. Wifi works fine. Was very quiet while we were there with only a few other guests.

    Wonderful warm welcome after a long flight. Nothing was too much trouble. Our room downstairs was wonderful and quiet with the "cave" room to sit in - so unique! Loved our stay here and breakfast was very tasty and fresh. Oh and the coffee was excellent!

    Great location and excellent service. On arrival, we found the environment pleasant and welcoming. Both check-in and check-out were professionally handled and easy. The room was very pleasant, it was cozy and very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was really delicious and varied. The hotel staff was always friendly, patient and eager to help. No matter what time of day or night, you could turn to them with all your concerns. That impressed us the most. The hotel's location is excellent as some of the top tourist attractions, namely, The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia and Topkapi Palace are within a few minutes walk, while the Grand Bazar and the Spice Bazar are a few tram stops away. The Divalis is a small family run hotel but big on delivery. It would be unfair if we didn't mention a few names who contributed so much towards making our stay a wonderful experience. So to Ms. Arzu, Ms. Tuba, Mr. Furkan and Mr. Oktay, thank you all so much. You all went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. The hotel was wonderful and our stay experience even better than expected. The price was amazing. On our next stays, we will definitely check into Divalis Hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Istanbul.

    location and staff

    If you want personal attention and feel like you are part of the family this is the hotel for you. With less than 20 rooms the staff genus cares about you and is so very helpful. The breakfast is great with continental style traditional and “American” food as well as made to order omelets. The owner is a delight and the guys who worked the evening and night shift were so friendly and fun. Oktay, made me breakfast at 6am due to my early departure and Furkan made me Turkish coffee more than once and stopped to have a cup with me on more than one occasion. it is in perfect walking distance to all the things you want to see and close to the ferry for further places. This is the one guys, look no further.
