Pros:

Posizione strategica a 10 minuti a piedi da Moschea Blu, Basilica Cisterna e Santa Sofia e a circa un quarto d'ora da Bazar Egiziano e Grand Bazar.
Camera spaziosa e super pulita, bagno più piccolino ma funzionale e attrezzato.
Eccellente accoglienza per il check in con ottima disponibilità da parte dello staff per qualsiasi richiesta; le persone fanno la differenza.
Consigliatissimo!

Cons:

Unica cosa dove si potrebbe migliorare è l'areazione nel bagno, ma per il resto la struttura è davvero molto pulita.
Consiglio di arricchire la colazione con prodotti tipici turchi.

Fantastic hotel, great location, great staff and facilities
Pros:

Excellent location, within a short walking distance to the Topkapi Palace and Mosques and on a quiet road. The staff are welcoming and friendly and cannot do enough to help you, without being overbearing at all. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the room was perfect. A complete bonus that you can breakfast overlooking the Hagia Sophia! Highly recommend.

Cons:

Sorry, I can't suggest any improvements

Fabulosa em todos os aspetos, grata a todo o staff do hotel.
Pros:

O hotel era super bem localizado, ficava perto de tudo e a poucos passos da Hahgia Sophia, do palácio topakki e da Cisterna.
Os funcionários eram muito atenciosos , a limpeza do hotel e o conforto das camas e almofada ( e eu sou muito esquisita com almofadas, até costumo viajar com a minha). O pequeno-almoço era excelente com variedade e o staff do pequeno-almoço muito atencioso também.
Gostei imenso da surpresa para o aniversário da minha filha e dos cartões de parabéns. Um gesto muito especial, que vai ficar nos nossos corações.
Também tiveram a gentileza de nos deixar tomar o pequeno-almoço mais cedo para podermos ir para o aeroporto,, um muito obrigada.
Obrigada por todas as sugestões, o jantar cruzeiro no barco foi muito bonito.
Muito grata pelos dias que eu e a minha família passamos no hotel.

Cons:

Gostamos de tudo.

Perfect Place to Stay for First Time Visitors to Istanbul
Pros:

Perfect location for first time visitors to Istanbul as all the key sights are within walking distance and you have easy access tot eh best tram line to take you further afield also. Staff are so kind and friendly and it was a perfect stay.

Cons:

Hard to fault in any way, I suppose some people may find the friendly customer service a little over bearing and the decor may not be to everyone's taste but that really is clutching at straws here.

Best accommodation in a long time
Pros:

Very helpful staff, very nice and clean rooms, best location right next to the biggest monuments, but still away from busy and noisy streets. Terrace with a view of Hagia Sofia. Welcome drink and small from the hotel when leaving for the AirPort.

Cons:

Everything perfect, just maybe the pillows were too hard and high for me 😉
