    The room was small, and because it was old it seemed that it needed deep cleaning.

    A very welcoming staff, the staff and the services care a lot about the guests. We booked a breakfast included and it was very nice. The location was awesome, there are nice small cafes around and of course they have their rooftop restaurant. Overall a good experience.

    Our room was below reception and didn’t have a view.

    A lovely welcome on arrival with complimentary Turkish Delight and tea at Reception before being shown to our room. The room and bathroom were spacious and had everything we needed for a short stay. The location was excellent, in the heart of Sultanahmet and close to The Grand Bazaar and the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. The reception staff recommended local places to eat and visit. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was an added bonus.

    Location is within walking distance of most of the famous attractions in Byzantine Istanbul, eg 1 minute to famous Turkish bath; 4 minutes to hagia Sophia church; 7 minutes to Grand Bazaar. That location is important because the road traffic congestion is appalling: even taxis dread going there. You can avoid all that by staying at this hotel and walking. Very appealing Turkish atmosphere in hotel, not like American-style hotels where you are not sure what country you are in because they all look the same.

    The location was absolutely perfect! All the main attractions were within a 2-3 minute walking distance. The hotel is surrounded by fantastic restaurants and local shops. The staff was the absolute sweetest as well! They would ask us how our day went, if we needed any assistance, and we would even have afternoon tea with them and chit-chat. Highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

    Rooms were a bit too small, so you do feel suffocated if you stay inside for too long. If you have medium or big size suitcases/luggage, you'll struggle to walk around freely in the room.

    Excellent location (close to the main tourist attractions in Sultanahmet), lots of cafes and restaurants nearby, friendly and helpful staff, decent selection of breakfast items. Sultanahmet tram/metro station is only a few mins walk from the hotel.

    Room could have been bigger but it was not a big deal as I was there for a short time.

    I had a cosy room with a balcony. Everything was clean. The breakfast was delicious and the cooks were so kind and hospitable. The cafe had a nice view too!
