“Hotel Novano earns high marks for its location in Sultanahmet, mere steps from Istanbul's iconic mosques. But I suspect the real differentiator is its intimate scale; this family-run hotel clearly prioritizes individualized service. The complimentary snacks and coffee are a nice touch, reinforcing the feeling of a true home base for exploring the city.”

The hotel's location was quite acceptable. It was close to many historical sites.
I found A SERIOUS problem. The air conditioning did not work properly in my room. It was quite warm and stuffy, and this made sleeping difficult. The staff did not seem able to resolve the issue despite my requests.
