Pros:

We had the most amazing stay here! The hotel itself is lovely - very clean and modern rooms with an amazing shower. But what made our stay so fantastic was the kindness and the hospitality we experienced from the staff. To the women who made our delicious breakfast every morning to those greeting us with a warm smile every time we returned! Istanbul is an amazing but busy place so it was so nice to come home to a nice, quiet and calm environment. Big shout out to Hatem who gave us the best tips for the city and made our stay incredible!! Thank you so much to Hotel Ravi for having us and we hope to come back again soon!! Definitely the best place to stay in Istanbul!!

Gute Lage, super Personal, gesamthaft ausreichend für 5d Aufenthalt.
Pros:

Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel und haben uns rundum gut betreut gefühlt. Die Mitarbeitenden an der Rezeption waren freundlich, zuvorkommend, hilfsbereit und sehr kommunikativ. Sie haben uns bei Allem unterstützt – sei es bei der Erklärung, wie man am besten zu verschiedenen Orten gelangt, bei der Organisation von Tickets für Sehenswürdigkeiten oder bei Restaurantempfehlungen. Sogar die Istanbul-Karte wurde uns erklärt und zur Verfügung gestellt.
Nach jedem unserer Ausflüge wurden wir herzlich empfangen und stets nach unseren Wünschen gefragt. Die Rezeption war rund um die Uhr erreichbar, was uns ein sehr angenehmes und sicheres Gefühl gegeben hat. Besonders Yakup und Hatem möchten wir hervorheben – sie waren ausserordentlich freundlich und aufmerksam.
Wir haben uns als Familie insgesamt sehr wohlgefühlt.
Die Sauberkeit – insbesondere im Badezimmer – war sehr gut, und es gab jederzeit ausreichend Warmwasser.
Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden mit unserem Aufenthalt und würden gerne wiederkommen.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind eher klein und schlicht eingerichtet, entsprechen jedoch den Erwartungen. Das Frühstücksbuffet war etwas begrenzt in der Auswahl, vor allem für jüngere Gäste. Der Kaffee könnte verbessert werden, und auch eine grössere Auswahl an Früchten wäre wünschenswert.

The Hotel Ravi is Istanbul's hidden rare gem! It's one's home away from home!
Pros:

First things first: Hotel Ravi is a gem--it's in a perfect location, just a short walk to Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia and other major points of interest that folks come to Istanbul for. At the same time, it is also quiet (enough) for when you need peace and a semblance of "distance" away from the daily Istanbul hustle and bustle. The Ravi has a charming and welcoming ambience, offers a generous breakfast buffet (trust me--you'll need it for energy and sustenance), and most importantly (don't ignore this): a welcoming staff who are genuinely attentive, gracious, and want nothing more than your comfort. Take it from us: we stayed here in May 2024 for 10 nights (and loved every minute of it) and did 12 nights on this trip. Ayca, the hotel manager, is every guest's quintessential hostess-ambassador-"Istanbulpedia"-guide-cultural broker. She is such a warm and kind human being---and one who effortlessly becomes a friend for life to so many. From where we stand, look no further: hotel-searching can be (actually IS) a nightmare so much so that if you find the right place, you best "gatekeep" the secret for family and friends. (Here I'm not gatekeeping at all because I know how grueling hotel-searching is!) Thank you, Hotel Ravi! Tesekkur ederiz, Ayca, Onur, Jacob, and everyone at Hotel Ravi. You are family to many of us who have had the privilege of staying at the Ravi. We are grateful. And we will definitely be back! Sincerely, Andy and Paul, Massachusetts

Cons:

No complaints from us. Just the right place for us! We've had the "been there and done that" with many hotels. Hotel Ravi is by far the best--authentic and unpretentious, which is what we were looking for. It didn't have that "big box"/"chain" impersonal and "corporate" feeling, which is what a lot of hotels are about!

Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour ! Tout était parfait : l’accueil chaleureux de l'équipe, la propreté irréprochable de la chambre et le confort de la literie qui nous a permis de bien nous reposer. Le petit-déjeuner était varié et très bon, avec des produits frais. De plus, l'emplacement de l'établissement est idéal pour visiter les environs sans perdre de temps. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !"

Я всем довольна и уже хочу вернуться 🥺
Pros:

Обожаю этот отель за отношение со стороны персонала (они такие милашки!) и за расположение. Не нужно далеко идти в гору, рядом все достопримечательности, остановки трамвая и магазины. В отеле есть лифт, хорошие завтраки (мне кажется каждый найдет себе что-то по вкусу) и даже швейный набор! Всегда останавливаюсь здесь, когда бываю в Стамбуле.

Cons:

Маленькое пожелание - добавьте зубную пасту, пожалуйста 🪥

Pros:

Locatie excelenta pentru un citybreak in Istanbul, la 3 minute de Moschea Albastra, 5 minute de Agia Sophia si 5 minute de statia de tramvai Sultanahmed. Chiar daca este centrala, locatia este foarte linistita, fara multimi si zgomote deranjante. Se pare ca hotelul este nou construit. Cei de la receptie au fost foarte amabili si primitori si ne-au ajutat cu informatii despre transportul in comun si skip the line la muzeele importante. Pozitia hotelului te poate ajuta sa eviti multimile de turisti la Agia Sophia, Moschea Albastra sau Basilica Cisterna.

Cons:

Zgomotul de apa curgand de la baia camerei invecinate se poate auzi deranjant, in special seara tarziu cand este liniste si incerci sa dormi sau daca esti mai sensibil. In rest camera a fost destul de bine izolata fonic, asa ca nu a fost un incovenient major.
