Aadil South Africa

The hotel is very nice. Breakfasts were good and tasty, the hotel staff was friendly and warm-welcoming. They are always ready to help. If you are looking for recommendation about a nice restaurant for a dinner or Bosphorus boat tour, just go and ask at the reception desk. The room was very clean and spaceful. The area is extremely beautiful, quiet and peaceful. I think it is a very good hotel to stay for couples to have a great time in the historical part of Istanbul. The bed is also big and comfortable :)

I stayed here six days and nights recently and enjoyed my time very much. The staff, especially Oktay, provided wonderful recommendations and advice about things to see and do in the city (including food to try!). My room was bright and comfortable, the breakfasts were ample, and the location is perfect — literally a 5-minute walk to The Blue Mosque.

Molly United States

The staff was absolutely amazing! So helpful and friendly, always up to offering us tips about places to visit.

Alina United Kingdom

Perfectly located in the old city area, clean, very good breakfast on the nice terrace… professional friendly staff, easy communication. Constant good quality of the hotel over the years - was our second booking here. And will come again :)
