During my stay, I found the hotel to have a great location near iconic attractions, and the cleanliness of the accommodations was commendable. However, the experience was marred by some maintenance issues and a feeling of discomfort due to some staff behavior. Overall, it has potential but needs improvements in certain areas.

My stay at Arasta Boutique Hotel was fantastic! The location was perfect, right near the Blue Mosque and other major attractions, allowing for easy exploration of Istanbul. The staff went above and beyond, providing thoughtful suggestions and accommodating requests swiftly. While the rooms were comfortable and had beautiful views, they could have offered slightly more amenities. The rooftop breakfast was delightful, though it could benefit from a bit more variety. Overall, a wonderful gem in the heart of the city.

Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The location is perfect, right across from the Blue Mosque, making it easy to explore the main sights of Istanbul. The staff is exceptionally welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. However, the room we had was unfortunately not ideal; it faced a makeshift trash area, which was a bit off-putting. Overall, the positive experiences overshadowed the negatives, and I would happily return if given a different room.

I recently stayed at the Arasta Butik Hotel and it was a pleasant experience overall. The location is fantastic, just a short distance from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. My room was cozy and had a stunning view, but there were some drawbacks like a persistent sewer smell in the hallway and bathroom. The dining options for breakfast were nice, but the experience could be better. While I appreciated the service from the manager and the free transfers, there were some unsettling interactions with one of the staff members.
