How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
Where Seres Hotel Old City sits, and how far things are
Seres Hotel Old City is a hotel on Hudavendigar Caddesi in Sirkeci, Istanbul. Its position puts several of the city's best-known monuments within a short straight-line distance: the Basilica Cistern and Hagia Irene are each about 0.5 km away, Hagia Sophia and Topkapı Palace each about 0.6 km, the Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 0.9 km and Süleymaniye Mosque about 1.2 km. Sirkeci railway station is about 0.2 km away.
For flights, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 30.7 km away in a straight line and Istanbul Airport (IST) about 33.8 km. The hotel offers a paid airport shuttle, and parking at the hotel is paid as well.
From a 15 m² budget double to a 65 m² family suite
The Budget Double Room is the smallest at 15 m², with one double bed and space for up to 3 guests; the Standard Double or Twin Room, at 17 m², offers two twin beds or one queen bed and sleeps up to 3. Above these, the Superior Double or Twin Room (20 m²) and the Superior Triple Room (23 m²) both come with a city view, the triple with four twin beds and one queen bed.
For families and groups, the step up is considerable. The Standard Family Room has 36 m², two super-king beds and a courtyard view, while the Deluxe Family Suite is the hotel's largest room at 65 m², with five twin beds and a city view. Children are allowed at the hotel, so these family rooms suit households travelling together. The Luxury Suite, at 30 m² with one queen bed and a city view, sleeps up to 3 and sits between the standard doubles and the family rooms in size.

What is on site
The hotel has a restaurant and a bar, and room service runs for guests who prefer to eat in their room.
Check-in, check-out and house rules
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00. Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed. Parking is paid.
Who it suits, and who it should not
This hotel suits travellers who want to be within about a kilometre of Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Palace, the Sultan Ahmed Mosque and the Basilica Cistern, with Sirkeci railway station about 0.2 km away. Families fit well: children are allowed, and the Standard Family Room and the 65 m² Deluxe Family Suite give two distinct ways to house a household.
It does not suit anyone travelling with a pet, since pets are not allowed. Guests who want a large room on a low budget should note that the two smallest rooms, the Budget Double and the Standard Double or Twin, are 15 and 17 m² respectively, so the space is modest at that end of the range. Anyone driving should expect to pay for parking.
