Frommer's "Although the hotel's "anything, anytime service" applies to guests of the suites only, the slogan is indicative of the personalized service the hotel strives to provide to all guests." Full review
Concierge "If you can forgive the rather humdrum name and slightly away-from-center location... you'll be treated to a modern boutique hotel of European-caliber quality and design."
Fodor's "Design is the emphasis here, with large rooms that have attractive contemporary textiles and furniture in neutral tones and reds, as well as an eponymous trademark sofa." Full review
Travel + Leisure "No neighborhood in Istanbul exudes more European chic than Nisantisi. The Sofa Hotel is a prime example." Full review
Star Service "Located in the city's premier design and fashion neighborhood housing the trendiest shops and cafes, this boutique-hotel targets a younger clientele." Full review

Rough Guide "Owned by three charismatic brothers, this place is bright, spacious and friendly and resists the pressure to go all modern or faux-Ottoman."
Lonely Planet "A sprawling place that has a long-standing reputation for cheap, clean and comfortable accommodation, the Side has overpriced hotel rooms with TV, air-con and en suite."
DK Eyewitness "This family run establishment combines a pension for budget-conscious guests and also a ritzier hotel. Pension prices are cheaper and facilities are fewer, with no air conditioning in rooms."
Frommer's "This place has been offering good-value, spotlessly clean, well-managed accommodation in the heart of the old city since 1989." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Superbly located within a few minutes' walk of the old city's top sights, the Side is understandably the budget travellers' accommodation of choice in central Istanbul." Full review
