Pros:

Our stay at Kensington Hotel was great. The hotel is nice, clean, offers a very good breakfast and is next to the tram stop for exploring Istanbul. The parking is right next to the hotel. A huge thank you to Ömer and Gamze, who are extremely kind and responsive. They made our stay even more pleasant and nice.

Pros:

Ηταν πραγματικά αξιοπρεπές. Καθαρά δωμάτια, δίπλα σε στάση λεωφορείου και μετρο με πρόσβαση σε όλη την πόλη, ευγενέστατο προσωπικο. Το πρωινό ήταν πολύ καλό με όλα τα βασικά είδη και καθημερινά υπήρχε και κάτι καινούριο!. Καφές 24 ωρες το 24ωρο. Θα το επελεγα ξανά!!!
