Aprilis Deluxe Hotel

Excellant hotel .Within walking distance of the major attractions, but lstanbul is very hilly and beware the hotel half way up a very steep one with difficult pavements and very heavy traffic. The top of the hill is a little more on the flat soif you have walking difficulties perhaps the sister hotel would be better. The staff in both are some of the kindest we have ever met so the Apryllis group are recommended. The rooms are not big but very clean with comfortable beds. Good air conditioning. However we are english and the breakfast for us was very poor. Basic same every day with no replacement if you are late risers as we are.. Salad bar , boiled egg , chips , plain lumpy horrible yogurt. If you are a breakfast person you will be disappointed. The staff in the breakfast room are realy lovely and never stop cleaning. Very good cofee machine. They have a nice rooftop bar ,one night they had belly dancing but we missed because no one told us about it and there were no signs. A shame as l am sure it woud have been fun. The hotel can help you with booking all trips , taxi entrace tickets. It is the staff who make the place so good

Great hotel, good cleaning, wonderful staff.

A great area, close to all most famous attractions. The views from the roof patio is very beautiful. Staff was very helpful. They arranged us a tour guide speaking our language, a transportation to the beach and transfer to the airoport (extra charge). There are a few high rated restaurants atound the hotel in 1-2 min of walk. Our favourite one was Mivan. It was a great stay!

Rapport aux idées citées ci dessus pour nous il n’y a que le petit déjeuner qui était pas terrible

The best thing about this hotel is by far the location. All the main attractions (mosques, Topkapi etc) are within walking distance (~15 mins) and there's a tram stop around the corner for further ventures (e.g. Kadakoy, Galata etc) The hotel itself however is not a 4* as advertised. It's very basic. I visited with 8 other guests and we were all of the same opinion. It definitely has everything you need to get by, but is not particularly comfortable. The breakfast has more Turkish options than continental (think salads/cheeses) but again has just enough choice for a decent eat - e.g. there isn't an omelette station but boiled and scrambled eggs are available. The rooms were clean and any time housekeeping was requested, it was prompt. The staff were on the whole really friendly - we did however have 1 quite pushy front desk person who repeatedly tried to sell us a boat tour (completely fine for this to happen once on arrival as information but it started to become uncomfortable as it was constant everytime i walked through the lobby after I had explained we had a booking we were already happy with). Across the 9 of us there were varied opinions on the comfort of the beds. In summary, we wouldn't be likely to stay again - however in all fairness, Istanbul is an older city so the options in such a convenient location would be limited, especially for so many people travelling together.

Tadelloser Service von der Gastgeberin Rabia, ein großes Dankeschön, sie hat unsere Kleidung gewechselt und uns bei all unseren Wünschen geholfen 😍

Lovely hotel in a perfect location. Staff are super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

I booked this hotel after reading great reviews and hearing horror movie-level tales about other Istanbul hotels. Traveling with my wife and three kids, I was bracing for a family-sized disaster. But to my surprise (and relief), this place was nothing like the cautionary tales. Clean rooms and friendly staff. It was a genuinely pleasant stay—no drama, no trauma no scammers (stay alert in Istanbul), and nobody slept in the bathtub. Highly recommend if you like your vacations panic-free and your family still speaking to you by the end of the trip. All in all, Aprils Deluxe is a charming little hotel that punches above its weight. It’s clean, well-located, and run by people who clearly care. Perfect for a short stay in Sultanahmet when you want to be close to the sights without selling a kidney for luxury. Would I recommend it? Absolutely—not for a long stay. For a cultural hit-and-run, it’s spot on. And avoid the breakfast.

Service was excellent. The staff was very helpful in guiding you around Istanbul, offering tours, suggestions, and assistance in transportation. The room was very nice and a decent size especially for Europe. Hotel is centrally located to all major attractions. And is approximately 1.5 km from the ferry that can take you across the Bosphorous.

sejour en couple fantastique !!! The best hotel !!

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It is very well located for the old town. Breakfast was adequate. We had one of the bigger rooms and it was spacious. However the duvet was too small for the bed and the lighting wasn't great and very confusing and it was difficult to have just a bedside light on to read. We booked transfers through the hotel and sadly our car was late/didn't arrive due to rain and traffic. The hotel reception eventually booked us a normal taxi and covered the cost which was great service. Despite this we were very stressed as we were very late getting to the airport. Not sure I'd use the transfer service again

Personnel très gentil et courtois, souhaite qu’on passe un agréable séjour. Plusieurs services. Malgré espace restreint, très joliment aménagé. Petit déjeuner offre une grande variété de nourriture. Je recommande. Merci beaucoup!

Muy amables y atentos todo el personal. Las habitaciones muy pequeñas

Excelente servicio, muy atentos

The staff were great. Communication before our stay was excellent. They also have services for tours and transport. The room was clean and spacious. Restaurants are abundant within a 15 min walk as were tourist attractions.

Hôtel confortable et bien situé. Personnel accueillant et sympathique. Seul hic : le petit déjeuner n’est pas à la hauteur.

Séjour parfait! - Accueil excellent et professionnel; - Personnels de salle très agréables et souriants (petit déjeuner); - Femmes de ménage discrètes et gentilles. L’hôtel est extrêmement propre (les chambres inclues), il y a un bar au dernier étage sur une terrasse avec vue sur la mer. Beaucoup de choix au petit déjeuner (continental et turc) et tout y était frais. Les chambres sont modernes, les lits et oreillers confortables, double vitrage. Hôtel très bien placé en plein coeur du quartier Sultanhamet, à quelques minutes à pied de la mosquée bleue. On y de très nombreux restaurants autour également. Nous recommandons ++

Hotel promedio , cerca de muchos puntos de interes Personal amable

Outstanding experience. Stayed at hotel twice with friends. Multilingual staff offered exemplary services from making recommendations to getting us short notice reservations at a fully booked restaurant. Arranged for private tour and dinner reservations for an entertainment/ evening dinner Bosphorus cruise. Used their recommended airport car service. Highly recommend to travellers.

Personale gentile e professionale.. posizione ottima
