Very centrally located, lots of shops and dining right there. There was one locale that had loud music until late night, fun if you were there. I had to use ear plugs to sleep.

Baret was absolutely amazing and provided great service from the day we arrived to our departure. The location was absolutely great and near walking distance for a lot of tourist attraction and stores. Will definitely stay at this hotel again when I visit Istanbul. Thank you, Baret!

When I visited they didn't offer breakfast or airport shuttle. And I think it said otherwise when I was booking the room.

Great location
The hotel is very well located, extremely close to Sultanahmet square, in a very touristic district. Rooms and breakfast are ok. Wifi is sometimes difficult to get.

2/10 Poor

Terrible
Didn’t feel comfortable,simply because I couldn’t sleep the first night. Kept scratching all night....the bed wasn’t clean!. Had to cut my stay short and leave the place after terrible night,though I paid for two!. I don’t recommend it,even for cheap price.

Need renovations. In max it should be a one star hotel due to its location 10 minutes away from historical points

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is located in a good location not too far from the blue mosque 2 minutes away on foot and not too far from the grand bazaar (around 20 minutes walk). The staff were very nice and helpful and the facilities were always clean, but it’s not too great for immobile people as they don’t have a elevator. I recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Istanbul. If you are travelling in the morning I advise you to book their taxi as the price of the normal taxis are unpredictable and they go up due to the traffic. I am very greatfull for your hospitality I won’t hesitate to book here again. See you next holiday.

Prime location in Istanbul
Clean and comfortable hotel.We had a pleasant stay in this cosy small hotel.All amenties were adequate with the bonus of being so central to Blue Mosque,Aya Sofia and the tram.Breakfast was typically turkish with cheeses,cold meat,olives,eggs,cakes and cereal.Something for everyone,however people with mobility problems will not find hotel suitable due to no lifts.I would not hestiate to recommend this hotel if you are on a budget.Another plus point it has mini fridge to store drinks.

The Star Hotel Istanbul gives what it promises. It is well situated (within easy walking distance of Hagia Sophia, the Egyptian market and much more), clean, comfortable and very affordable. The little fridge in the room allows guests to ensure cold water and beer at all times. Although the room does not offer a kettle and tea or coffee an abundance of restaurants around the hotel has excellent tea and coffee. Breakfast on the roof is ample and offers a lovely view of the environment. Staff went out of their way to assist us with all our queries. The manager even made sure that apple tea would be provided when I mentioned that I really enjoy Turkish apple tea. As the hotel has no elevator, make sure to mention if you have difficulties with stairs.

Great location near all historical places in Sultanahmet. The hotel is basic and wifi doesn’t always work. The breakfast is limited however the staff are welcoming and helpful.

Excellent for on a Budget
Booked the hotel for family and they had nothing but nice things to say about their stay. The staff went above and beyond to assist. People on the front desk were extremely kind, specifically a person in the name of Serdar. Other hotels in the area were checked out and they were more expensive with even smaller double-bed rooms than this hotel offers. Breakfast is minimal but not bad. Basically, you get what you pay for. Might hear some music from outside the hotel at night.
