Mostly the hotel position is quite suitable to visit the city historical sites and to enjoy the best view of the Bosforos landscapes. The lack of a main lobby where to rest and to meet friends for conversation. |

It was central to all the main historical/cultural points of interest taking little more than a few minutes to reach any of them e.g Aya Sofya, Blue Mosque etc. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and room cleanliness was excellent - which is one of my top criteria when staying at any hotel. |

Absolutely hassle-free. Quick check-out, good advice about public transport. Very noisy. My room was above a Starbucks - wooden chairs scraping on stone floor - and facing onto a busy street with trams clanging down it from 05.00 to midnight. But I requested a quiet room away from trams at time of booking so obviously the booking notes do not get passed on (else get ignored). |

The excellent location made visits to key places very easy. Two of our party have walking difficulties so location was very important. Staff were helpful and efficient. The hotel felt Turkish and was small but atmospheric and very clean. The advantages of the hotel heavily outweighed any difficulties. We are elderly and struggled with the shower/bath. One of our party could not get into the shower at all because they could not scale the height of the bath. There were no handles to steady access into and out of the bath. The beds felt very hard and there was nowhere to sit and read outside the rooms except a table in the entrance. In wet weather this could be a problem. |
