Pour un séjour romantique à Istanbul
Pros:

Hôtel de charme impeccablement tenu par un personnel nombreux aux petits soins. Hospitalité parfaite. Une mention spéciale à Arthur et Eren, à l'accueil, comme à tout le personnel du petit-déjeuner, qui est exceptionnellement varié. La chambre Saint-Exupéry, au dernier étage, avec terrasse donnant sur la mer de Marmara, vaut à elle seule le déplacement. L'emplacement est idéal, à deux pas de Sainte-Sophie et du palais de Topkapı, dans la vieille ville d'Istanbul.

Cons:

Aucun défaut à signaler.

Wir hatten einen traumschönen Städtetrip
Pros:

Die Unterkunft liegt mitten in der Altstadt, und trotzdem war es unglaublich ruhig und alles rundherum lief gelassen und friedlich. Wie schön😂😂 die Unterkunft ist super sauber und ganz schick. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig zu erreichen.
Das Personal im Haus ist unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommend, selten so eine feine Gastfreundschaft genossen.

The perfect, quiet stay in the beautiful city of Istanbul.
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Poem! A special thanks to Eren, who is so kind and helpful. When we’re back in Istanbul, this will be our first choice place to stay!

The rooms are beautifully decorated, comfortable, and quiet. Breakfast was delicious and filling as well. The location is perfect, within 5-10 minutes walk of many major sites, but tucked away on a very quiet street.

Cons:

Nothing—everything was excellent!

Pros:

Очень приятный отель, находится в тихом месте. 3 минуты до Айя Софии. Завтраки огромные и вкусные, мы вдвоем так и не смогли всё съесть ни разу. Сотрудники очень заботливые. Молодой человек Эрен прекрасно говорит по-русски и всегда рад помочь по любому вопросу.
