had a wonderful stay at Ajwa Hotel Istanbul. The location is excellent—very close to many of the main attractions, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The hotel restaurant was very good, and there are also plenty of great dining options nearby. I also experienced a traditional Turkish bath (hammam) at the hotel, which was a highlight of my stay. What truly stood out was the staff—everyone was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful throughout my visit. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

The concierge manager and deputy manager are very good and communicate effectively and proactively through WhatsApp. The breakfast is sumptuous and room services are great. Wifi worked well, the location is central and we used both the airport pickup/dropoff service as as well as their recommendation for a tour guide. I would definitely recommend and stay here again
