Great location for a great price.
Pros:

Shuttle service arrangement was very easy. Location is awesome close to everything.

Cons:

We appreciate the receptionist who stayed late night and completed our check-in steps, but unfortunately she was not able to directly communicate in English which was a bit confusing to us for such a great hotel. Also I did not like paying for transfers in cash as I had to drop by a currency exchange shop to pay for that.

Am avut o experiență foarte plăcută la The Empress Theodora Hotel ||. Gazda a fost extrem de amabilă și promptă la orice solicitare, iar comunicarea cu proprietarul a fost excelentă pe tot parcursul șederii. Ne-a făcut să ne simțim bineveniți și s-a asigurat că avem tot ce ne trebuie. Camera a fost curată, iar atmosfera foarte plăcută. Recomand cu încredere acest hotel tuturor celor care își doresc o ședere confortabilă în Istanbul!

Not really far from the city center but not right in the middle of most visited touristic places.

We liked the facilities, super cozy and clean place.

It was freezing in the room we couldn’t make it any warmer.

Pros:

Apropierea de toate obiectivele turistice.
Amabilitatea personalului.Curatenia.

Cons:

Se mai pot face mici imbunatatiri la baie ( un cuier de prosoape, separarea dusului de restul băii ca să nu se mai imprastie apă peste tot.)

Pros:

Уже второй раз в этом отеле, очень нравится! Месторасположение очень хорошее, рядом с Айя-София, 2 минуты ходьбы до самых главных достопримечательностей. Терраса с видом на Голубую мечеть. Отель чистый, есть всё необходимое. Приветливый персонал, есть русскоговорящие.
