Hypnos Design Hotel

+ perfect location (We highly recommend this place if you want to explore Istanbul in 2-3 days) + tasty breakfast (We were on a family vacation and booked 4 rooms. Still, the staff was very quick and managed to prepare amazing breakfast for all of us every morning) + comfortable rooms + friendly staff

I have been traveling to Istanbul a lot recently/ both for business and pleasure. Every time that I have stayed in the old part of the city, I had issues - which have been hotel related - not the correct room, the hotel being dirty, missing amenities or the breakfast being ultra poor. Besides that since sometimes I travel by car, I had cases where my car would be damaged etc. - All of which made me think twice about traveling to the old part of the city. This time, I had to go due to some personal engagements and my partner suggested to book at Hypnos Design Hotel, which, of course, due to my previous experience I was skeptical at first. Fast Forward to the arrival - since I had to drive to Istanbul (14 hours of driving) it was of the utmost importance for me to have a cozy room, something which I was amazed by! From the first moment we arrived at the hotel, the staff greeted us with a family like smile and attention, they parked our car in front of the hotel, helped us with the luggage and gave us drinks. - All of which was a pleasant suprise! The room was ultra nice, where each room had a different theme and that makes it appealing to come back and see all the rooms :D Furthermore - The hotel was ultra ultra clean and the breakfast was the best I have tasted in the old part of Istanbul! As a summary for this trip, I would like to thank each hotel staff for their warm welcome and for making my stay enjoyable as I was home! Most definitely I will return and try the other rooms :D P.s. The hotel owner had a shelf of jewelry which were designed by her, make sure to check them out and purchase some, they are ultra nice and unique!

Excellent location. Small & personable, like coming home, rather than into a hotel. There is no request that Jerry (manager, concuerge, Istanbul ambassador & bloke with a top hair cut!) can not or will not fulfill. This bustling city was all too easy with his help & the hotel's location. Room with a balcony! A must to hear the city coming to life in the morning. Breakfast also great. And Hypnos is situated next door to one of the best, creative, well prriced & as-yet undiscovered rooftop restaurants of Sultanahmet.

The location was incredible, very close to all attractions. it’s good that the tram doesn’t go in front of the hotel but there is a stop just 100 meter away. The typical Turkish breakfast was very good, and big! The quality/price it’s really really good. Clean room and kind staff. I was so happy to have chosen this hotel for my stay at Istanbul.

I've been many times in Istanbul, and this is the best hotel I was staying in. The location is great, near (less than a minute walk) to the Gulhane tram station and park, and also near to the Sirkeci marmaray station, one can reach almost any point in the city from this place. The room was very big and spacious compared to average room size in Istanbul. We also had a nice balcony (the plants on the balcony need some better care though). It is a small hotel, interestingly designed, and if I understood correctly, every room has a special thematic interior design. Soundproofing is also good. I would certainly stay in this hotel again. This place has a charming atmosphere, good beds, spacious rooms, and great location.
