We went to Istanbul for the purpose of shopping and sightseeing. We decided to go through a tour agency. We stayed at the Barin 3* hotel for 7 days. Pretty decent city hotel. We were seated within 5 minutes. The room was on the second floor (except for 1 - lobby). Rooms are clean and quite spacious. The rooms have TV, air conditioning, paid minibar, free safe, hairdryer and soap accessories.

We went to Istanbul for the purpose of shopping and sightseeing. We decided to go through a tour agency. We stayed at the Barin 3* hotel for 7 days. Pretty decent city hotel. We were seated within 5 minutes. The room was on the second floor (except for 1 - lobby). Rooms are clean and quite spacious. The rooms have TV, air conditioning, paid minibar, free safe, hairdryer and soap accessories. Housekeeping is mediocre, but tolerable, there were no particularly critical moments. An iron is brought to the room upon request.
For 7 days, almost nothing has changed in breakfasts, but they are decent enough, they were not hungry (sausages, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, 4 types of cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, muesli, jams, cake, bread (you can make toast), chocolate paste and butter, sausage, tea, coffee, watermelon and melon).
There is Wi-Fi in the lobby and there is a free computer with internet access and a printer. There is a luggage scale in the basement (because it was a successful shopping, they were very useful... a couple of kg migrated to hand luggage) If there is a minute between races around the city, then there is a rooftop terrace where you can sunbathe.
Distance to attractions: close enough to the tram stop, and there is 1 stop - the Grand Bazaar, two more - and Sultanahmet, Ai-Sofya and other attractions, but you can also walk on foot. Not far from the hotel there is a grocery mini market... and many restaurants and an exchange office with a normal rate. Of course, the hotel is located in Laleli and almost everyone grabs their hands and offers their goods, but if you ignore it, then everything is ok.
The price-quality ratio is very good. When we return to Istanbul, we will most likely stay at this hotel again.
