    Did not have proper sized bed linen for king size bed. Too small.

    This was the second time we stayed here and we switched rooms and went to top floor and had full views of the Bosphorus.

    Nothing - maybe the stairs since we are older.

    This property is in a perfect location to see all the historical sites in Istanbul ❤️ Just a 5 minute walk and you are in the think of it all. Its is great value for money - the staff are so helpful- nothing is too much trouble. We definitely would come back.

    A spotless and very well located hotel with a stunning roof terrace and very nice staff.

    Perfect place to visit all major historical buildings, literally a few minutes way from Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace. The view from the roof terrace where breakfast is served is stunning, facing the Asian side, views from the Bosphorus and the Marmara sea. The hotel is spotless and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. You feel at home!

    Lack of staff meant they consistently struggled to keep cutlery/plates/glasses etc topped up during breakfast. Shower sometimes ran out of hot water.

    Excellent location. Close to attractions and a short walk to public transport. Lovely rooftop terrace and breakfast. Good sized rooms with great views.

    Nothing! It was great!!

    Everything!! The property has stunning views of turkey from my bedroom window. It was so beautiful. It was right in the centre and close to everything of walking distant. It has a rooftop view for breakfast & it’s amazing. The money valve is so worth it at this place. I definitely recommend.

    Nothing major - just things to note: housekeeping is once a day in the mornings, and be careful when coming down the terrace floor, if you take the wrong door you'd end up in the next door hotel lol. I think the complimentary water packets were for the first day, but I bought a lot of water from the nearby markets so it's fine. It's in a historic area so a lot of cobblestones - so pay attention to your footwear. There're complimentary shower gels but nothing else like shower caps etc if this matters to you.

    I actually had to add on an extra day, and they were very accommodating and could help me with my request (and I didn't have to change rooms). The room was very neutral pretty with white walls and fixtures and roomy with a working fridge and had a decent view out into the sea, and was clean. They also helped to carry my bags upstairs (so helpful as there was no lift). The morning buffet was very decent - while the sausage choice is just simple mini hotdogs, there's an incredible array of cheeses and olives and other meze dishes as well as fruits and usually there's freshly cooked borek as well. I really appreciate how they got in touch with me on WhatsApp before I arrived to sort out airport transfers and other contact details. The location is also excellent. Close to main attractions in Sultanahmet but also a lot of eateries and supermarkets (actually sundry/grocery shops/bodega) nearby

    Just a little uncomfortable entrance up the hill from the train station, otherwise very convenient to walk to the mosque and the grand bazaar

    Location was one of the best option. Eventually you could be able to use the train to go in and out the city. I had a trip back to the airport and it was fabulous.

    While the hotel’s location is fantastic, the property itself is quite basic. You get what you pay for for this location I guess. The shower is quite cramped, and bathroom supplies were not consistently restocked leaving us short at times. The breakfast was average, nothing particularly memorable.

    I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. **The location is unbeatable**, just a short walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, making it perfect for exploring the historical sites of Istanbul. The terrace view was absolutely stunning! From there, you can see the Bosphorus Strait, which made for an incredible spot to relax in the morning. The rooms were **clean and well-maintained**, providing a comfortable space to unwind. The service was also exceptional, with Zahid standing out for his attentiveness, but the entire staff was friendly and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed during our stay.

    Location was sublime, 5 min walk from the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Tram stop is 10 minutes away, which gives you access to ferry stations, Taksim square and Galata Tower. Staff members were very helpful in advising you how to avoid overpriced vendors and how to access major tourist attractions with ease. Breakfast service was top-notch! So many options to choose from, coffee machine is a highlight and we helped ourselves to some fruit and boiled eggs on-the-go for the days out! Rooms was small but more than adequate.
