Yeni Hotel

I came to Istanbul for the first time, and loved this hotel, both for its excellent location in Sirkeci, and the staff and facilities. My room was quiet, clean and charming, just what I wanted for exploring the city on a budget and having somewhere to rest as well with AC. I'd recommend the private bathroom. There are no elevators, but you get used to the stairs pretty quickly - it's a good warmup for the streets of Istanbul afterwards. I arrived at 6am and was allowed early checkin as requested, and got help with my luggage/adapters/questions etc. Residents were polite, and Mohammad at the reception was exceptionally helpful and welcoming, as well as the owners. The restaurants, shops and stations around make for a colorful, lively and laid back area, super convenient during the day or late at night. Chef Ramo right next door is great for eating and chilling as you plan your day. The hotel will also help you book taxis if you need.

The staff was friendly, the location was nice because you are close to everything. The airco was nice, it was really refreshing coming to the room because it was so hot outside.

I was a solo female traveller and stayed in the single room with shared bathroom. I felt very safe staying here! Room was basic but extremely clean and comfortable with aircon and personal sink. Shared bathroom facilities always in a clean condition too. The staff were lovely, particularly Mohammad who made me feel very welcome :-)

The location is great! 10 mins walk to main visiting points. and it is very close the the nice garden and seaside. Besides, 3 mins walk to 2 tram station, 1 mamaray station and also 1 port, which give great convenience to go to anywhere. It is shared bathroom but it is very clean all the time, hot water 24hrs. I am satisfied with what i pay for. Staff are nice.

My room was at 4th floor and the property has no lift. But this was no issue. The staffs were very helpful and carried the luggage when I checked in and out. The location was excellent. The price was consistent. (Some other hotels I had been to doubled/tripled their price in some days thus I had to move hotel. Yeni was the third hotel in my 5 night/6 days trip in Istanbul) the room was nice in size and with open window view. The hotel overall has good Turkish vibes. I will stay at Yeni for sure if I visit Istanbul again.
