Pros:

Hotel zaskoczył nas swoją lokalizacją. Naprawdę idealne miejsce do rozpoczęcia zwiedzania czy dalszych wycieczek.
Śniadania bardzo smaczne. W ciągu dnia zdarzało nam się wrócić na chwilę do hotelu napić się kawy lub herbaty z hotelowego tarasu z super widokiem.

A great, memorable stay
Pros:

I recommend this hotel. I especially loved the hotel’s location that was walking distance to the main attractions and surrounded by shops and the terrace view. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and the breakfast was variable and lovely. The customer service was excellent. I would love to stay there again.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was small and the balcony was too small and narrow to fit a chair in. The view from the room was okay. These were minor things that didn’t affect our stay.

Un acierto de hotel
Pros:

Hotel muy bien situado para visitar Estambul, vas a pie a todos lados de Sultanahmet. Nuestra habitación tenía unas vistas espectaculares a la Mezquita Azul, Santa Sofía y el Bósforo. El personal muy amable y atento. Ha sido un placer alojarse allí.

Beautiful hotel, amazing staff
Pros:

I loved my stay here. The lobby is clean and beautiful. The staff are so warm and kind. I want to specially thank Gokhan Kısa for being so personable. Everyone made us feel very welcome. My 8-year-old daughter enjoyed our stay. The 6th floor, where breakfast is served, has an amazing view of the city.

Cons:

I like my stay. No complaints.

Pros:

하기아 소피아 때문에 이 숙소를 잡았는 데 걸어서 7-8분이면 갈 수 있어서 좋았고, 호텔 루프 테라스에서 바로 하기야 소피아와 블루 모스크가 보여서 좋았음.

Cons:

이스탄불에 대해서 더 알아보고 가야했는데, 우선 사비하 괵첸 공항으로 도착했는데, 이 곳 근처까지 오는 공항버스가 없었음. 물론 지하철 타고, 버스 타고 올 수는 있지만 여기 대중교통은 출퇴근 시간이 아니더라도 사람이 많이 이용해서 큰 짐을 가지고 움직이는 게 힘듬. 업친데 덥친 격으로 그나마 여기서 떠나는 비행기가 있는 이스탄불 국제공항 가는 공항버스가 근처에 있다는 데, 무슨 이유인 지는 모르겠지만 공항버스를 내가 출국하는 날에 운영 안한다고 호텔리어가 말해 주는 거야. 그래서 결국 호텔에서 불러준 택시 기사와 흥정하고서 공항까지 택시 타고 갔어.

Un hotel inolvidable en una ciudad mágica!!!
Pros:

El hotel es muy bonito, cómodo y tranquilo. La vista desde el desayunador es espectacular. Tienes a Estambul a la vista. Inolvidable. Nos tocaron días con nieve y ver nevar en Estambul desde la terraza fue una experiencia inolvidable. A un paso de todo lo que debes ver en Estambul. Realmente un excelente hotel. La atención de su personal fue espectacular. Todos muy amables y el desayuno realmente fabuloso. De volver a Estambul, no dudaría en elegirlo nuevamente.

Cons:

La habitación que nos asignaron en el sexto piso, si bien tenia balcón y hermosa vista, era muy pequeña. Hubiera sido perfecta una habitación mayor máxime siendo un matrimonio el que nos alojábamos allí.
