Pros:

Πέρασα δυο όμορφες ημέρες στην Κωσταντινούπολη!! Έμεινα απόλυτα ικανοποιημένος από την φιλοξενία του ξενοδοχείου. Όλα τα παιδιά που εργάζονται εκεί είναι άριστοι επαγγελματίες! Βολικό και το πάρκινγκ, καθώς μόλις φτάσεις απλά παίρνεις τα πράγματα σου και αφήνεις το αυτοκίνητο στον
παρκαδόρο. Σε απόσταση 5 λεπτών βρίσκεται η στάση του τράμ, το οποίο περνάει από το ιστορικό κέντρο και σε πέντε λεπτά είναι στην περιοχή της γέφυρας του Γαλατά, αφού έχει περάσει πρώτα από την Αγία Σοφία και μπλε Τζαμί. Το ξενοδοχείο διαθέτει και ένα πολύ ωραίο εστιατόριο! Το προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα. Ευχαριστώ όλους σας!,Φιλιά από Ελλάδα!

Hi! The hotel is nice and well located. The staff is attentive. The breakfast was quite tasty and varied, but I thought there wasn't enough fruit.

Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. Son emplacement est idéal, à proximité de nombreux lieux incontournables d'Istanbul, avec un arrêt de tram juste à côté, ce qui facilite tous les déplacements.

Le petit-déjeuner était bon, avec un choix varié pour bien commencer la journée.

Un grand merci au personnel, et tout particulièrement à Umut, qui s'est très bien occupé de nous. Il nous a réservé un accueil chaleureux et s'est montré disponible tout au long de notre séjour, toujours prêt à nous aider avec le sourire. Son professionnalisme et sa gentillesse ont vraiment contribué à rendre notre séjour encore plus agréable.

Nous recommandons cet hôtel sans hésitation !

Pros:

Great location. There are many cafes, restaurants and souvenir shops within walking distance of the hotel, making it an ideal place to relax and explore the surrounding area.

Cons:

The breakfast was very disappointing, so we ended up having breakfast at a nearby café instead. The hotel itself is quite old, and the rooms are in need of renovation. The bathroom fixtures and plumbing are noticeably worn out, and the room feels dated overall. While the location is great, the hotel’s condition did not meet our expectations.
