Pros:

Fantastic location, clean and comfortable room and incredibly helpful staff team. I sprained my ankle early in the trip and they were extremely kind with supporting us to find medical treatment in the city, and bring ice packs to our room! Thank you to the team at Hotel Amira

Excellent Choice!
Pros:

Amazing staff at Hotel Amira! The gentlemen at the front desk were extremely knowledgeable and friendly helping to arrange taxis and providing tips for taking the tram. They provided extra insight into the Turkish culture and answered my numerous questions without hesitation.
We had a room with two queen beds that was extremely spacious and clean. The shower had great water pressure.
Breakfast was delicious with a combination of Turkish and standard choices. I especially enjoyed the honeycomb and the Turkish options. And breakfast was not complete without a tea and Turkish coffee. Be sure to go into the other room for a made to order Gözleme.
The location is also ideal and 5-10 minute walk to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the Basilica Cistern. The square offers plenty of shopping and restaurant options.
When I return I plan to stay here again.

City Break Istanbul
Pros:

This is an exceptional hotel. The rooms are clean, well equipped and the beds very comfortable. We had a superior room and it was well worth the extra money. Although it wasn't open when we were there, a roof-top bar and restaurant with amazing views completed this excellently located hotel. (It is located within a 5 minute walk of the Blue Mosque)
The breakfast was also very good with a range of hot and cold options. However, what put this hotel head and shoulders above others was the staff. To a person they were friendly, helpful, and went out of their way to help with even the most basic questions.

Pros:

Fuimos en temporada baja y considero que la relación calidad-precio es muy buena.
Hay recepción 24/7.
La ubicacion es muy buena, a menos de 10 mins andando de la mezquita azul y Santa Sofía.
Las habitaciones limpias, con servicio de habitaciones diario, los baños nuevos con ducha buena, hay nevera con agua y te (con hervidor de agua) gratis. Nosotros reservamos una habitación para 3 y la única pega que podríamos tener es que la cama supletoria es más bien un sofá y es pequeña (pero yo dormí muy bien y no tuve problema). La habitación daba a la calle y tenía doble ventana por lo que no se escuchaba nada desde fuera.
Bufet libre en el desayuno con mucha variedad (fruta, tortitas, bollería, huevos, embutido…), hay pan sin gluten. Además en la habitación contigua hacen un plato típico de allí muy rico.
El personal fue amable y atento, y puedes contactar fácilmente con ellos por booking.

Cons:

Si no pagas el suplemento para tener habitación con vistas probablemente vayas a una habitación del “sótano”, que tiene ventanas pero estás pegada a la calle., aunque no se escucha nada.
En invierno la cafetería de la terraza está cerrada, pero igualmente puedes subir y tiene unas vistas preciosas.
