About
Piya Boutique Hotel
Piya Boutique Hotel sits in the heart of Sultanahmet, just a short walk from the Blue Mosque and other historic sights. Despite being so central, it's tucked away on a quieter street, giving it a calm feel that guests often remark on.
The property is run as a small hotel, with a range of rooms from superior doubles to triples, some with balconies and street views. The team is repeatedly praised for being friendly and going out of their way to help, from lending Istanbulkart for public transport to arranging late check-out.
