More stays near the tram part two

Eighteen further hotels, apartments and homestays within about ten minutes of the Sultanahmet tram stop, mostly in Küçük Ayasofya and Kadırga, with honest notes on scores.

Asil Süper Apart

This is the second list of places to stay around the Sultanahmet tram stop. These properties sit a little further out, mostly in Küçük Ayasofya and the Kadırga side toward Piyer Loti, between 5 and 10 minutes' walk from the platform.

They are ordered by guest score, from 7.7 down to 6.4. These are lower scores than on most of our lists, so treat this as a page for travellers who need a room near the tram on busy dates, or want a simple base, rather than a list of favourites. Some places have plenty of reviews; others have only a few, and we say which.

Several list a terrace or a 24-hour desk, and most are small, from 2 to 27 rooms, with one aparthotel of 48 units. Read the walking times carefully: a few are closer to the Grand Bazaar than to Hagia Sophia. If you would rather pay attention to scores first, see the highest scores in Sultanahmet, or the first part of this series, more places to stay around the tram stop.

How to choose

None of these places score as highly as the best old-city hotels, so start with the ones whose scores are backed by plenty of reviews: Asil Süper Apart, Han Suite, Ancient Town, Fuat Bey Palace and Divas Silver, all between 7.4 and 7.7.

For the shortest walk to the tram, Ancient Town, Divas Silver, The Zanadu, Bachos and Blue Amedist are about 5 minutes away. For the Grand Bazaar, Asil Süper Apart, My Home Sultanahmet and Divas Silver are the closest. If you want a spa, look at Fuat Bey Palace or Blue Amedist; for a terrace, Asil, Han Suite, Nova City and The Zanadu all list one.

Families or groups can consider the apartments and aparthotels, from Amoria's two rooms to Sultanahmet Life Apart's 48 units. If you can be flexible on location, compare these with budget-friendly stays with good scores.
