Locality was very good plus excellent breakfast provided. Hotel had upgraded friends (who arrived earler than us) from a standard room to huge spacious 'elegance room'. We were paying elegance room price and hotel tried to book us into a very small room with no balcony, although their brochure stated elegance rooms with balconies. We refused this room, so they offered us another small room with a balcony which we accepted but the bathroom was very small. We did not know that there were larger rooms available. We later found out another spacious elegance room was available so we spent our last night only in this room (room 202). On checking out we tried to get the hotel to accept it was not right our friends to end up in a huge spacious room (at no extra cost) and we paying more ended up in a much smaller room but the hotel staff refused to see what we were explaining. The hotel also lied in saying no other rooms were available for our friends which was not true as they were also shown another room on arrival, which was an upgrade, but they refused this room. Why were they then shown the very large elegance room no 201 ? On checking out, the manager refused to come out of his office to discuss this matter. The prices of the rooms should reflect the size of the rooms and bathrooms, not just whether they have been refurbished, or not. |

the area it is in and the good facilities They took no notice of the fact I had requested twin beds and gave us a small double. Took 2 of the 3 nights before they could move us and gave us far too little discount to take account of the upheaval and lack of comfort this caused. Also did not reply to an email i sent them a few days before our arrival date. |

Friendly helpful staff, nice distinctive design both in the room and public areas, feeling of an old historical building renovated with taste, spotlessly clean room with private balcony, great location near historical sights. Very good choice for a city break. There could be more lights in the room. |

Convenient location in Sultanahmet close to all its main sights, but on a quiet street. Helpful and friendly stuff. Recently renovated, good furniture, very clean room, wi-fi, nice inner garden and restaurant with view, good variety of food for breakfast. Although recently renovated the bath tube was leaking after 5 min of taking a shower. Thin walls, therefore one could hear lot of noises - from the corridor and from the neighbour room. |

The staff was helpful and friendly. I left something in the taxi that took me to the airport and the hotel staff helped a lot to make sure the taxi went back to the airport to bring it back. It would be good to have an elevator ... but staff was always ready to help |

The location was superb, close to everything but also off the beaten path. The rooms are very quiet, but for those facing the rail line. All the staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is delicious with lots of choices. Everything is very clean and updated. Some bathroooms are small, but efficiently laid out. We loved it! Very uncorfortable pillows. We were told that they have new ones on order. |

The hotel is situated very close to the most important sights of the city. It is very convenient, as you walk the old city from the hotel on foot. The hotel is newly renovated, it has an excellent taste in furniture and fabrics. The staff is very polite and friendly and very helpful. |
