費爾酒店(Fer Hotel)

Location is great if you are looking to walk around old city of Istanbul. Most of the tourist attractions are within walking distance. However, as its an old city layout, roads are one way and narrow. Getting in and out during busy hours are crazy. Some traffic jams are as long as 1 hour just to get out of the old city into the asia side of Istanbul or new city of Istanbul. You will be well served by Ibrahim, the lobby ops manager. Ask him for his recommendations because every one will try to scam you in Istanbul. Taxi drivers, bazaar stall operators, turkish ice cream sellers, most people on the street will jump on the opportunity to scam you if you approach them. Just remember this, Turkey is one of the cheapest country for living expenses, as long as you are not scammed.

Hotel is in a great location for visiting sites in the old city and close to a wide range of restaurants. The staff were very friendly and were eager to help with all requests, further enhancing our stay. One thing the hotel could benefit from is a bar or social area, in order to further utilize the rooftop space.
