My stay at The And Hotel Sultanahmet was quite an experience. The location was unbeatable, with amazing views of the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, especially from the rooftop restaurant. However, I felt the rooms were a bit on the smaller side and could use a bit of TLC, like fresh carpets and updated decor. Overall, the friendly staff made my stay enjoyable, even if the hotel showed some signs of age.

My stay at The And Hotel Sultanahmet was enjoyable, with an unbeatable location near major attractions like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. I loved the stunning views from the rooftop breakfast restaurant, where I started my day off right. However, the room I had was smaller than I expected, making it a bit tight for maneuvering. Overall, the friendly staff and cleanliness of the hotel made up for its few downsides.
