A friend stayed there and recommended it for its price. The rooms are not the biggest but for the price you pay they're OK. The hotel is just 2 blocks from the metro(tram) stop. The area is not very touristic, but it only takes a 10-minute-ride to get to the main spots. Breakfast is OK. Tip: book directly through the... more

I stayed 9 days at this hotel over Christmas 2007. I found the hotel pleasent, and the staff very helpful. The hotel is within walking distance of the Aksaray tram stop.

Take into account that there are also several exchange offices very close to the hotel so it is better to change there than in the... more

The Yigitalp is a good hotel for someone travelling to Istanbul for a few days. Located in the old city it is very close to all the main tourist sites. The rooms are clean but small. Not much of a view from the hotel. The staff is friendly and pleasant. more

I booked this hotel for 4 nights in Easter holidays and I had a horrible experience. Myself & my wife went to Istanbul for her birthday and though it would a good idea to stay in a hotel which is central and value for money. They charged EUR75 per night.
