Fantastic hotel, very helpful and friendly staff, ideal location for visitors, very short walk to the cistern, blue mosque etc. very handy for tram stop for going further away too.
Superb views from the hotel restaurant although it is a bit pricey to eat there, even for Istanbul prices. Apart from that it really is a superb hotel in a fantastic location!

This is my second stay at And Hotel.
Very nice hotel with an excellent terrace restaurant - with a beautiful view of Aya Sophia and Blue Mosque as well as the Bosphorus straight. Only a 5 minute walk from Aya Sophia, Blue Mosque and the Roman Cistern. Metro-tram stop just a few more steps away, also the hop-on bus "stop 1" is a 5 minute walk

It was very convenient to go everywhere.
The staff members were almost nice except some staff. The bed was comfortable.
I didn’t have time to use the restaurant, but Ayasofya view was very nice. I wish I had a chance to dine there. They have a lovely cat, she slept on my lap, which was amazing.
I want to stay again next time I go to Istanbul.

Location is top notch and absolutely lovely staff! Literally 2 minutes to everything, you can see the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque from the restaurant terrace while having the lovely breakfast (included). The rooms themselves need a bit of refresh, a bit dated but such a nice and helpful staff that make your stay super comfortable. They made sandwiches for our 3 AM departure :)
