Excellent Location, Friendly Staff, and a Wonderful Stay!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Our room was quiet, clean, and comfortable, and the two ladies working in the kitchen were especially kind. They also made sure our room was cleaned every day, which we really appreciated.

We also booked a round-trip airport transfer through the hotel, and everything was well organized and taken care of.

The location is perfect, within walking distance of Hagia Sophia, Sultanahmet Mosque (the Blue Mosque), and the bazaars.

Thank you to the whole team for making our stay pleasant. Highly recommended!

Por poner algo, el desayuno era un poquito escaso de opciones, pero igualmente estaba bien y la señora que lo preparaba era amable.

A lovely small hotel in Sultanahmet
Pros:

Very helpful, friendly staff, including the 2 women serving breakfast, and the front desk staff. After the 1st night, the other 2 nights were great in a clean, lovely, quiet room as I had asked for. Very good value for money and only a few minutes walk to the drawcards of Sultanahmet. Highly Recommended.

Cons:

The room I stayed in on the 1st night didn't seem to be fully functioning yet. In spite of Bensu trying all possibilities, the tv was not connected. This was disappointing as I especially wanted to catch up on world news after being in Eastern Turkey for 10 days.

Pros:

Tutto. La terrazza sopra dove poter andare e avere uno Skyline unico e speciale. La gentilezza del personale. La cordialità e disponibilità per ogni richiesta. La pulizia della camera. Lo consiglierei altre 1000 volte e se dovessi ritornare a Istanbul ci andrei di corsa. Inoltre nel centro di sultanamet, in 5 minuti a piedi mi ritrovavo dinanzi la moschea blu...

Cons:

Nulla
