Обязательно вернемся еще
Pros:

Прекрасное расположение, до Эминёню 10 минут, метро, трамвай - все рядом. Отель уютный, маленький, чистый, очень вкусные свежие завтраки, и невероятно приятный персонал, к таим людям хочется возвращаться снова и снова. Рекомендую это место, заселились сюда после одной ночи в отеле в Таксим, и это было лучшим решением за поездку!

Уютный исторический особняк в пешей доступности от метро, причала Эминёню и большинства основных достопримечательностей. Великолепные турецкие завтраки, шикарный вид с террасы и гостеприимство на высшем уровне. Метин, Нур, большое спасибо за вашу заботу и отношение к гостям! Благодаря вам, я провела прекрасные 2 дня в Стамбуле, которые всегда буду вспоминать с любовью!
