Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
This is our second visit to Istanbul and we stayed in another hotel during our first visit. This time we wanted to try a new one and decided to stay in this beautiful hotel. Sometimes Hotel is cozy and very private. Room was very clean and comfortable. Mr Faruk, hotel owner was very helpful and friendly. Staying at Sometimes Hotel was like staying in a warm nice home. We definitely recommend this beautiful boutique hotel in the very convenient location.
Thank you

From the minute we stepped into this new cosy little hotel, we knew it was the perfect start to kick off our 1 week vacation :) Hotel location is perfect as it's a short walk from the main street and surprisingly in a quiet area that makes you sleep peacefully away from Taksim's wild & noisy nightlife; Rooms are also classy with modern finishing and adequate space.
What made this a wonderful and memorable experience was the hotel owner's amazing hospitality & support throughout our week stay! Mr. Egemen guided us throughout our entire trip, almost making our everyday better than we had planned and expected. Thanks to him, we visited Istanbul's greatest hotspots & hidden gems. The man does not only plan and recommend for you, he goes as far as taking you to Taksim's most authentic Turkish restaurants!
I highly recommend this hotel to any traveler, it will provide you great value and feels just like home :)

me and wife was in Istanbul, and we decided to stay in Sometimes hotel after the careful review of hotels on Tripadvisor and Booking.com- and i must say we are one of the most convinced and satisfied customers of Sometimes Hotel.
Few Things about the hotel:-
1. Location: The Location of the hotel is more than ideal. Its right in the center of Istaklal street- so you can access both ends of Istaklal Street, with in 15 minutes of walk- Tramp & Bus Station is located on 5 minutes walk. Galata Towers is on 10 minutes walk. there are lot of street side restaurants just within 10m range of the restaurant.
Hotel: Rooms are not small nor very big, they are pretty reasonable and spacious. Couple with 2-3 luggage bags can easily be stayed. Rooms have beautiful full length mirror which helps in every manner. Room colorful lights gives a sparkling view during night.
Washroom: The thing that i Loved about SOMETIMES HOTEL is washroom- In a chilling weather, when it was 0 Degrees, room & washroom was very well equipped with good heaters and warm water. which makes our stay really pleasant.
Breakfast: You will be served with typical Turkish Breakfast, with variety of cheese, butter, jams, omelettes, vegetables and fruits.
Lastly & most Importantly, Mr. Farooq the owner, he is a GEM and a sweetheart. a through gentleman and very very accommodating person. who facilitates guest in every possible manner.
Good Luck Sometimes Hotel & Mr. Farooq. May Allah bless you Always. Will be coming back again soon.

This is a friendly hotel in a good location to visit Cihangir. Very clean modern room with very comfortable beds. Breakfast is served in the room. The only thing i would change is the bathroom as it is possible to see inside when the light is on (and this is a little awkward if you are sharing a room with a friend who you don't want to see in the shower!

Sometimes you just stumble on a great place without knowing it beforehand. The place has a super location just of the Main Shopping street of Istanbul but the place itself is very quiet and surrounded by all kinds of restaurants and bakeries. The owner was really friendly and always ready for any kind of help or information. Very recommended when you travel to Istanbul.

Hotel is very comfy and close to istiklal street where you can find anything you want. It's also very close to the Taksim Metro station and about a 10 minute walk to Galata Tower and the Karakoy tram station where in less than 10 minutes you can get to Sultanahmet area, Spice Bazaar, Grand Bazaar and Eminonu. The room at the hotel was always clean, the staff was very helpful into giving tips. directions, and helping me out when there was any need. Additionally, breakfast was served in your room. Nothing quite as waking up and calling in for breakfast in bed! Even though the hotel is located at a side street in Istiklal area, it's very quiet and safe. Grand stay!

We originally planned to lodge in a luxury hotel in Sultanhamet, but luckily ended up choosing this tiny, boutique hotel between Taksin and Galata Tower. Great staff, well maintained and powerful Wi Fi. We will certainly come back!

In Beyoglu area there is a small, cozy, new good atmosphere hotel called SOMETIMES. Quite big room, all kind of commodities, very quiet and silence. Ideal for long weekends or to go with your partner. The owner is a very charming man who offers you all kind of information you need it with a,smile in his face. Very good average price/quality.
