Walking distance to major attractions. Well-designed entrance and lobby. Friendly and smiling staff. Many restaurants open late. Small but clean and tidy room. Fantastic hotel staff. Perfect location in the old town. Wonderful welcome and great hospitality. Close to Istanbul highlights. Awesome breakfast spread. Manager were really nice. Informative tour operator True Blue.
All was perfect.

Our recent stay at the Walnut Shell Hotel Sultanahmet was a pleasant one. The location was excellent, right in the heart of the city center. The room we stayed in wasvery comfy and tidy, with a nice decor. The staff was accommodating and went out of their way to assist us. One specific situation that impressed us was when they helped us navigate the menus at the ATM, only in Turkish. The included breakfast was delicious, with a variety of fruits, cheeses, breads, and even French toast. we had a great experience and would recommend this hotel.

During our Christmas stay, we really liked the warm and friendly service provided by the staff. They went out of their way to accommodate us and even arranged a second bed in our room when we accidentally booked a single bed.
A few aspects. the room itself was not up to our expectations, as it was small, dirty, and had a small.

The staff at the hotel were accommodating and always had a nice Turkish greeting for us. They provided great advice on things to do in the city. The beds were comfortable and the internet connection was excellent. The location was ideal, just a ten-minute walk to the main tourist sights.
There was nothing that we didn't like about our stay at this hotel.

An incredible value for money with great attention to detail, this hotel is located in the heart of Sultanahmet, making it perfect for tourists. With only 7 bedrooms providing a cozy and intimate atmosphere, the rooms offer a nice view and even a sofa bed, just like in the movies. The included breakfast has a nice spread, with continental options to start your day.
Absolutely nothing to complain about, everything was perfect.

The hotel's location is perfect, just a short distance from the old city center and all the major sights. It is very close to the mosques, awesome for easy exploration of religious and historical landmarks. The cleanliness of the hotel was excellent, with spotlessly clean rooms and common areas.
All good.

There were a few minor maintenance issues that needed attention.
