This hotel is in a great location. It is a great place to stay if you are looking to do a thourough tour of the city as its location is walking distance from the city's main attractions. The rooms were clean and fairly spacious. The staff were extremely helpful. We are an older couple and therefore wanted a room on... more

Me, My husband and our two friends went to Turkey for a 5day holiday. We recieved excellent service and hospitality from all the hotel workers at the Avicenna. Everything from rooms to cleanliness to food were much better than we expected. The location of the hotel is incredible, on one side you have the beach and the other side you... more

I went to Istanbul last May and had a wonderful time! Hotel Avicenna is very well located, walking distance to the main points of the old city. The installations are really good, as well as the food and the manager is very nice and helpful. Regards from Brazil, Renata Dotta more

We've just come back from a four night stay at the Avicenna. Having found the reviews on this site helpful (before we made our choice) I thought I'd add our views. When we got there, we were shown into a small, dark room (Room 101 for anyone who cares to remember) with a window of which only a small portion... more

Avicenna is a magnificient small hotel that combines the traditional 19th century architecture with today's facilities. It's located to the beautiful area of Sultanahmet, very close to the sights of the Blue Mosque, Sant Sophia and Top Kapi. I strongly recommend to everyone that plans to visit Istanbul. more

The area around the hotel was ideal for us - the Blue Mosque... more

My wife and I were walking around Aya Sofia and saw a brand new hotel called Ottoman Imperial Hotel (see my review on trip advisor) & switched our hotel to Ottoman imperial. We paid same amout as Avicenna and rooms... more

I stayed in the Avicenna Hotel for three nights in October 2006. I chose it based on good reviews on this site and others, and found the positive comments were well founded. The hotel is located in a quiet area of Sultanahmet in close proximity to the Blue Mosque. There are many quaint hotels and restaurants nearby. Traveling alone, I... more

Stayed at this hotel for several nights. The location is perfect -very close to the sights but not part of the hubbub. The room was fine but showed no signs of a caring owner. The bathroom had new plumbing that was very nice but they put sloppy patches where the old plumbing was. The TV was useless. We had a... more
