Amazing service by the cook and reception, great, healthy breakfast with cheese, egg, cucumbers, and olives. Also had less healthy cake and bread. Quiet rooms. The terrace was amazing to do productibe work on the laptop the whole day. Great wifi. I also asked for extra food and got it.

Great location. Female staff lovely. Male staff not that friendly (no response to my hellos). Staff entering bedrooms without knocking. Could be cleaner. Breakfast not buffet as pictured. Offering too small to be classed as breakfast. 24-hour reception is someone sleeping behind it - anyone can walk in & access bedrooms. Had misunderstanding with owner. He was shouting, aggressive. Very unpleasant. Left me shaking physically. Unprofessional & he let his people down. Would not stay again.

Staff & location were excellent. No buffet breakfast as in photos : but a plate prepared for each person & basically the same each day. Also, no privacy curtains around dorm beds as shown in photos.

Location: 10/10 Staff: 10/10 Cleanliness: 4/10 Facilities: 4/10 Value for Money: 5/10 Breakfast: 4/10 Antique Hostel has one of the best locations in Istanbul, just a short walk to Sultanahmet Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, the Basilica Cistern, the Grand Bazaar, and the tram station. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I especially want to mention the lady in the kitchen — she was so kind that I felt a sense of motherhood from her. The rooms had some issues: the bedsheets sme...

A convenient location close to the blue mosque, however that is all it had going for it. The hostel itself was not clean. The towels you hire were dirty, stained, covered with holes and extremely old. The bedding, the same. There was no security for the room I was staying in as the room didn’t lock and there wasn’t a key. The free breakfast felt as though they had just given us left overs from whatever was had for dinner the night before, with chicken nuggets one morning and fries anothe...

I had a mixed stay. Check-in was smooth, and I was welcomed kindly, but the owner was rude and unprofessional. When I asked to extend my stay, he insisted on cash only, despite having paid by card before. The facilities were lacking—none of the power plugs worked, and I was initially given the wrong room. There was also no atmosphere, as most guests were older. On the bright side, I slept well, breakfast was decent, and the location is great for

Great location near to sights in Old Town. Excellent views from rooftop terrace. The breakfast was decent enough, very filling. No access to kitchen for guests but we did leave a couple of bits in the fridge. Staff are very friendly and the place was pretty clean and tidy. Would stay again if staying in the old town but would also consider staying in a different part of the city next time

Pros: hot showers, unbeatable location and incredible free breakfast. Cons: The private rooms look lovely but the dorms in the basement are less so. Bunk beds are not very stable, come with just a sheet (no blanket or quilt) and only some have privacy curtains. Lockers do not look very secure. I recommend that solo female travellers go for the female dorm or a private room as the mixed dorm had many older male guests.

Really liked this hostel and would recommend as a cheap place to stay that’s near the city centre
