    warm, family-like service
    poor sound insulation

    The hotel staff provided impeccable service, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived.

    Sound insulation in the rooms is quite poor. we could hear noises from neighboring rooms, which might disrupt lighter sleepers.

    poor breakfast
    small room

    absolutely loved the supposed 'Special Category' but honestly, this hotel was no better than average. the breakfast options were subpar and that was just the beginning. and I never even received a complimentary upgrade for all my troubles. I had to endure a too-small, dark room. I almost gave a good review, but just couldn’t.

    terrace breakfast
    noise issue
    sound insulation

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Esans Hotel, Special Category. The location was perfect, just a short stroll to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The staff was exceptionally warm and helpful, always available for questions. Breakfast on the terrace was a highlight, offering a delightful variety of fresh Turkish dishes with captivating views of the city.

    The noise from nearby rooms was noticeable.

    rooftop breakfast
    noise issues
    limited breakfast selection

    The complimentary rooftop breakfast offered stunning views and freshly prepared food.

    I was quite disappointed with the noise levels. I could hear everything from neighboring rooms, which severely disrupted my sleep. The sound insulation is practically non-existent, making it difficult to relax. Additionally, the breakfast selection was limited and didn’t meet my expectations. Having cheeses left outside for long periods is concerning.

    great location
    lovely staff
    steep stairs

    Location was ideal—close to sights yet quiet. The lovely staff even lugged our bags up three flights—now that's commitment! Breakfast on the terrace served gorgeous views of the water.

    But can we talk about those stairs? I mean, they might as well be a mini gym membership! Pack light unless you fancy a cardio session.

    steep stairs
    hilly location

    The quaint decor made it feel homey, and the breakfast on the rooftop had a breathtaking view of the Bosporus. The staff were genuinely kind and offered personal shopping tips, enhancing our visit. however, the steep stairs can be a challenge, so pack light.
