Great experience at hotel and nearby shops and restaurants
Pros:

The location in relation to Hagia Sophia, Topokepi and Blue Mosque, and rest of Old City is excellent. This is a well kept small hotel with a good breakfast. Our's was a quiet room facing away from the street. Staff was helpful. Necati in particular was very pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

Fine place, rather basic which we liked..

Pros:

Я редко пишу отзывы но в этот раз хочется оставить.
Останавливались в этом отеле 11-14 апреля с семьей и остались очень довольны!
Расположение просто замечательное, в самом центре достопримечательностей, в пешей доступности голубая мечеть, А-йя София и др.
В номерах тихо, несмотря на месторасположение. Маленький уютный бутиковый отель)
Завтраки нам очень понравились, разнообразные, каждый день добавляли что-то новое, и все вкусное. Мы хорошо наедались.🙏🏻
Персонал очень отзывчивый и приятный, некоторые даже говорят на русском. Особенно хочется отметить Искандера, безумно приятный молодой человек, нам очень понравилось его отношение и внимательность.
Когда в первую ночь соседи сильно шумели и нам было тяжело спать из-за этого, мы попросили нас переселить подальше и нам предоставили другой номер, причем улучшенный, без какой либо доплаты.
Это был очень приятный опыт, спасибо всему коллективу!
Приедем ещё:)

Pros:

Great location, lot's of attractions within walking distance. Plenty of restaurants near by. Hotel has a small lift. Reception staff were friendly. Breakfast is a basic buffet style with a coffee machine and çay. Rooms were cleaned daily with toiletries, bottled water, tea and coffee replenished daily. The rooftop terrace was empty when we were there in April and the lift doesn't go upto it so it's steps from the floor below.

Cons:

Breakfast was very basic and the few hot dishes that were available were cold. There is no soundproofing so if there is someone noisy in the room next door you can hear everything. Also if you happen to get a room at the front you can hear the traffic too.

Curat, îngrijit și plin de grijă
Pros:

Foarte curat peste tot, personalul amabil, locație excelentă.

Cons:

Mi-ar fi plăcut o cameră cu vedere spre drum dar nu am avut priveliște frumoasă și ținând cont că nu prea am stat în camera nu ne-am plâns.

Lo único aceptable la ubicación
Pros:

Lo unico que puedo destacar del alojamiento es la ubicación, que es inmejorable en todo el centro de Estambul

Cons:

Hay un montón de ruido de otros huéspedes, se escucha todo. Un olor a comida continuamente desagradable. Las instalaciones son viejas y destartaladas.

Unpleasant hotel-we checked out immediately upon arrival
Pros:

Hotel is in a good location.

Cons:

We mistakenly booked this hotel rather than Magnaura Palace which had been recommended to us. We realized our mistake upon arrival. We would have stayed there anyway but this hotel is not adequate. Lobby looked like an old furniture storage room. Staff were not very engaged or helpful. Our room smelled terrible and when we opened the window to air it out, the smell of cat urine from the "garden" was overpowering. The garden was actually just a patch of weeds.

Recomendo!
Pros:

Excelente localização, quarto confortável, chuveiro e camas excelentes, equipe prestativa e simpática.

Cons:

O café-da-manhã tinha poucas opções "internacionais", sendo mais um café típico para turcos - o que limitou bastante para nós.

Musím pochváliť recepčného Vecati ktorý bol veľmi nápomocný a milý 👍🏻 všeobecnosti bolo všetko v poriadku cítili sme sa
Pros:

Hotel bol výborný výhľad z izby na more žiaľ balkón som nemala len francúzsky napriek tomu že som si objednala izbu s balkónom. Izba čistá a veľká. Posteľ pohodlná cca 600 metrov od Modrej mešity a Hagia Sofie. Mesto pekne a čisté Obyvatelia sú milí a nápomocný

Cons:

Bola len jedna vec čo sa mi nepáčilo a to raňajky síce výber bol dostatočný ale nebola dostatočná hygiena pri servírovaní raňajok : v praženici vo vajíčku a v miešanom šaláte som našla vlasy a nie jeden ale viac. A druhý deň tiež☹️
