Wonderful stay in the heart of Sultanahmet

We heard about the wonders of Turkish hospitality from friends well before our trip, but Mr. Ali and his team at Bram Hotel blew those expectations out of the water. Mr. Ali could not have been more friendly, professional, warm and knowledgeable. We highly recommend going through Mr. Ali to book your airport transfers to and from the hotel, it took a huge load off our minds and was so helpful. Our room (we stayed in rm 206) was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bathroom (especially the shower) was surprisingly large and the hotel overall is in fantastic condition. Mr. Ali and his team put so much love and care into renovating and building out this hotel, and it shows. There won't be extensive lotions, skincare, or other toiletries/amentities in the bathroom other than shampoo and shower gel - but that is to be expected given the price. Also, the hotel's Turkish breakfast is incredible! Bram hotel = extraordinary value for the money, and we only wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you so much again Mr. Ali!

I stayed there for 10 days, and it was great. The owners were very friendly and very helpful. They helped us navigate the city and schedule some great tours. There was a really good breakfast every day, and the accommodations were nice. The location is great very close to some amazing landmarks and easy to get around town.

Great Boutique hotel.

The owners of this boutique hotel work very hard to ensure you stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The food was very good and the service was top notch. The views on the top floor patio were amazing. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip back.

This is a newly built Hotel. Ali and his brother Turkan provided outstanding hospitality! The cleanliness of the rooms was exceptional, and thanks to soundproof windows, they were also remarkably quiet. Its location is very convenient. We look forward to our next stay and strongly recommend this place to all our friends and family.

Having travel around the world and stayed in hotels on six different continents--from luxury to boutique--I find Bram Hotel to be at the very top tier of my most enjoyable hotel stays for a couple of reasons. 1) The attentiveness, care, and service are unequal. The owners are welcoming, helpful, and kind. They go out of their way to be helpful and accommodating. The personal touch is just splendid. I was given a wonderful quick overview of the city and the surrounding area attractions upon arrival. The hotel is well kept and immaculately clean. 2) The hotel is steps away from dining, many major sites including the Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, and many other amazing sights things. If you like courteous and personable customer service, you'll love this place and fall in love with Istanbul as a plus.

Believe the good reviews, Bram is great!

I thought the ratings for this hotel were suspiciously high & too good to be true. They were not. Bram Hotel was great, and I’d love to stay there again sometime. The hosts were so friendly and helpful (and one or the other of them were always available on the ground floor!), breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented, and somehow they managed to clean our room in the short time in which we went downstairs for breakfast each day. The soundproof windows did a great job, and the neighborhood was great - lots of restaurants nearby, but quieter than the busiest tourist areas.

The owners are amazing! They where in contact prior to our arrival. Arranged airport pick up and drop off. The brothers are very special, they treated us like family. The attention to detail was unimaginable. The breakfast was so fresh and delicious. The location is central, walking distance to all the main sites of interests. They also introduced us to an amazing tour guide that speaks English and Spanish. We had such an amazing experience my son is now planning his trip and will be staying here as well. Highly recommended!

Every aspect of my recent stay at the Bram Hotel was great. Staff, especially owner/manager Ali incredible helpful and friendly. As soon as I booked on Travelocity, I got a message from him confirming and offering to answer any questions about Istanbul and transfers from airport. He spent some time each morning giving me sight suggestions and info on how to best reach them. Bram hotel is impeccably clean throughout, from very nice lobby and cafe are to rooms. My room was modern, updated, and quiet. Cafe was open for breakfast (nice one included with my Travelocity booking) and for tea and snacks at other times. Rooftop lounge area with great panoramic views of Istanbul. Bram is within easy walking distance of Sultanamet Square, Hippodrome area, and Blue Mosque, with Haghia Sophia and Topkapi a bit further off but very walkable. Highly recommended.

Great property and yummy breakfast in the heart of Sultanahmet. A big thank you to Ali and Tarkan for the most homely stay. They were such an amazing host and provided us with so much knowledge about Istanbul and offering us ideas on how to best experience the city in our short stay. Great property only made better with the one of a kind hospitality. Look forward to being back in our next trip.
