We spent 3 nights at Senatus and it is a very conveniently located for most of the attractions and tram stop if needed to explore further. The breakfast was good and rooms were clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay here!

We stayed at the Senatus Hotel from 20 Jul 24 to 26 Jul 24. The staff was excellent and friendly. The breakfast was included and we liked it. Most of the attractions were within walking distance and had many dining options. The train station was also within walking distance, this would save a lot of money as you don't need a taxi to move around the city. One must take the Bosphorus Cruise option from the hotel, it's worth it. We enjoyed our trip and thank you staff of Senatus Hotel especially Hasan.

The bedroom is very small, there is no space to sit down in the reception area. The outside garden is rented to another good provider they ask you to move so they can prepare for lunchtime onwards.

We stayed for 5 nights. We have stayed in many hotels in Istanbul over the years and we particularly enjoyed the Senatus. It I very well situated for all the main attractions in Sultanahmet. A 3 to 4 minute walk to reach the Blue Mosque, Topkapi etc. We stayed in a double deluxe room with balcony. The breakfast was traditional Turkish and plentiful. The hotel has many bars, restaurants and little mini markets on the street, all very convenient. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

I booked this property specifically because their balcony rooms were reasonably priced compared to other properties in the area. When I arrived on a very hot day in Istanbul, the AC in the balcony room was unable to keep up with demand. I occupied the room for one night however as I was due to stay there for a week I couldn't continue in that room as the temperature in the room never got below 29c (84 Fahrenheit). I brought my concern to hotel management and they were very responsive offering me numerous options. In the end I chose to downgrade to a room on a lower floor where the AC worked much better. The hotel is in a great location, tons of dining options right at the doorstep. Housekeeping did a good job, the rooms were always clean, although both rooms I occupied may be due for a deep clean as there were signs of mold in the showers. Breakfast offering not the best but was sufficient. I deducted two stars from the overall rating due to the disappointment of not being able to comfortably occupy the balcony room and also due to the refund I was offered. I was given a 20euro refund which doesn't seem consistent with the prices I see on Orbitz/Expedia (the price difference seems more in the range of $30 per night, and I was booked there for a week, so the 20euro refund I received just seems arbitrary).

It’ss very nice 3-star hotel. The staff are all very friendly. The attached restaurant is a full service restaurant and menu prices are a tad higher than on simpler establishments, but the food is indeed very good and the service very professional and personable at the same time. It was a pleasure starting and dining at this hotel. We will likely want to stay here again.
