The hotels staff/owners were very nice and helpfull. The place is newly renowated. The cabin on top of the roof is incredibly nice, the view from there is fantastic. You can work or relax there. The toilet was a bit small, but thats ok

Unfortunately there was a hammering sound going on from around 7:30-8 a.m. to around 8 p.m. It was not very loud but it was very persistent and therefore maddening. If you plan to spend some time in the room - it is really hard to get used to this sound.

Staff was accommodating, he did not speak too much english but it was enough to please us changing the heater to a/c. According to him, the entire building has to be either in heater or a/c. We were a group and had 3 bedrooms here, all rooms were impeccable. He took care of all bags and deliver them to the rooms because there is no elevator. It is close to the main things we were visiting like: Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topkapi.

If you are staying in a higher level, stairs can be a little tiring. The area is not the very best, but it is still safe. We believe it is located in a developing area where eventually will be many more small hotels like this one.

We loved this hotel. It was in the perfect location to explore the historic sites. The staff/owners were really friendly and helpful, plus the room was clean and comfortable. Finally, the terrace is beautiful and offers a great view. We would absolutely stay here again. You won't find a better place for this price range.

Next time I visit, i would consider staying on the Asian side as I've now seen the historic sites but if I'm on the european side then I'll stay at the Verseca without a doubt.

Absolutely amazed by the level of cleanliness. Breakfast is yummy with traditional turkish tea and cakes, cheeses and other essentials on a cozy rooftop terrace with a lovely view. Very nice air conditioning in the room. Clean modern bathroom. Room is airy and sunny with nice decor, comfy bed, fridge, wardrobe and vanity. Secure door locks in the entrance of the building and room made us feel very safe. View from our room was lovely, facing the sea where you can spot a lot of cool boats at the port. Staff was very polite and accommodating. Also lots of cute cats in the neighborhood! Our stay was very comfortable and we had a great time ❤️🇹🇷

Internet was very slow unfortunately. No elevator but that is understandable. Cleaning is free but you have to request it (not really a drawback in my opinion because it means more privacy). Bathroom doesn't have a lot of counter space but there is shelves in the mirror and under the sink. AC unit a tiny bit noisy but not a problem for sleeping.

Clean and cozy. Room had 2 single beds and 1 twin. Room is small but was well organized. Very clean. Enough space for clothes. AC works as expected. Staff is very polite and helpful. They speak in russian and english. Location is very convenient, many shops and groceries around. Walking distance (around 8-10min) to blue mosque. Train station as well very close. But be prepared to walk up the hills. Hotel is located in shoe neighborhood, so sometimes you will feel the smell of glue.

It would have been nice if there was a small shoe rack in the room. Breakfast on the fifth floor without elevator. Very loud entrance door in the hallway.

Beautiful and spotlessly clean room, great aircon, and a charming small balcony. But the best part was the rooftop overlooking the Sea of Marmara. The view is spectacular, and having breakfast there every morning while sipping Turkish tea was the highlight of our stay. The T1 tram station is a short walk away, so great connectivity. Can also walk to Sultanahmet area from here. The staff is super sweet and helpful. The breakfast lady always greeted us with a smile. And after checking out, the owner generously offered to drop us off at the metro station since it was a hot day. Extremely impressed with the overall hospitality :)

The hotel is on a steep road in an industrial area. Taxis drop you at the bottom, and the tram station is also uphill. We appreciated the workout, but those with young kids or mobility issues might not. The area in general is not the best, and very few people are around at night. On the good side, the area is away from the touristy centre, so food in the nearby restaurants is pretty affordable.

Situated in the heart of Istanbul, this hotel offers an ideal location for those eager to explore the city's renowned mosques and landmarks. Its unique position combines the tranquility of peaceful nights with the lively atmosphere of daytime Istanbul, truly capturing the essence of local culture. The staff, particularly Ugur and Azis, are exceptionally kind and helpful, contributing significantly to a pleasant and comfortable stay. Moreover, the view from the terrace is nothing short of spectacular, providing a breathtaking panorama that adds to the overall experience. The hotel's commitment to service and its prime location make it a top choice for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in the vibrant life of Istanbul.

The stuff was very helpful. The room was clean and the bed is comfortable. We booked a room with sea-view and it was nice. The terrace was also good and clean. The room we stayed in had a really good AC. Would recommend this hotel if you are looking for a comfortable, clean, kinda avarge hotel. To stay over at nights.

The breakfast was 6/10. It could have better options. No coffee for example. The nieghborhood is not super clean, and the hotel located uphill. However, we could absolutly stay there again.

The location is perfect. Family owned. It’s literally a 10 mins walk to all main attractions, Blue mosque. Grand bazaar. Hagia Sophia etc & 4min walk to nearest tram station BEYAZIT. There is a terrace top which is great to chill in evenings. They offer wash and iron service at a reasonable price. Small fridge in room which is perfect for storing drinks. Rooms could do with a small safe to keep ur belongings secure.The manager ‘Ugur’ couldn’t do enough and speaks English v well. Wi-Fi is super fast. AC is perfect. It is up hill so bare that in mind for any of u travelling with elderly or those with wheelchairs. Make sure taxi agrees to drop u outside hotel. Area is so busy with traffic some taxis drop u off bottom of street. Albeit just a 4 min walk, but it’s uphill with cases & in that heat was missions! Taxi from airport approx 500-700 liras. Hotel was clean & I felt safe. Defo recommend & would stay here again. 10/10. Book it guys!

Should have a small safe in room.

Small hotel in the center. The area is quiet at night, there are no noisy places nearby. Staff is helpful and polite. The room had three beds (one double and two singles), so theoretically four people can say, but probably it would be cramped. For two people, there was enough space! There is a fridge and a kettle; tea satchels and bottled water were provided by room service. We haven't tried the breakfast. I would consider staying here again.
