Aldem Hotel

The hotel is near to Sultanahmet tramvay, my favourite location to stay in Istanbul.

Good about this hotel - Location - Excellent as you are close to the main sights and a tram stop is 2 minute walk away. Facilities/Services - Lift available which was very useful, laundry, breakfast and arranging travel. Service - Most of the receptionist staff spoke English and were very helpful with arranging excursions or anything we needed help with. They almost always had someone at reception too. Roof - Nice view of the Blue Mosque and a lot of the city. Price - Better value than the hotels that are supposed to be competing with this hotel. Bad about the hotel - Rooms - The bathrooms were VERY small. Facilities - There was very low water pressure in the bathrooms, the lowest in any hotel i've ever stayed at. The AC was also quite weak. Some rooms appeared to have a newer AC and different showerhead which compensated a tad for the low water pressure. They also didn't have a do not disturb hanger to hang outside the door, so if you were napping after a long walk you would be woken up by the cleaning staff unless you told reception in advance. Also, if you were staying on the first floor, you hear a lot of sound inside and outside of the hotel. Overall review - If you are on a budget, honestly this is a hotel I would stay at again if I was on a tight budget. It's better than a lot of the hotel which are competing with it in terms of price range.

I was there on 27 June for two nights. The hotel exceeded my expectations in almost everything. Very good value for money.

Aldem is a great hotel. The staff is courteous and helpful. A great place to stay in Istanbul!

The stuff .nice breakfast .cleans room . Very helpful and friendly stuff

Great Location. Close to transportation and activities. Delicious breakfast with wonderful view of area on roof top deck. Friendly and helpful staff. Good Price.

Can't beat the location of this hotel. Small room size aside, the staff and service was great. Rooms are cleaned everyday with fresh towels provided everyday, breakfast is a delicious selection and the view from the terrace is just amazing. We dealt directly with the hotel for our booking, no agents and Erdal at reception was amazing arranging eveything, transfers and even offered an upgrade to a bigger room. Turkish hamam was also recommended and arranged with an authentic hamam dating back to 1800s. Shops, restaurants, tram and attractions literally a stone throw away. We felt very happy with our choice to stay here and highly recommend it.

It is an ok property, but they could do a better job cleaning black mold in bathroom

I have stayed at Aldem multiple times. It is a great hotel & facility. Staff is great as well esp. Erdal!
