Pros:

The location of the hotel is very centric for the transportation. There is plenty of points of interest near the hotel. Breakfast has choices. The staff in the front is very friendly. We did the Turkish hamman and they were able to accommodate children. This is a very family friendly hotel.

The hotel is in an ideal location as all the shops and local attractions are near by including the mosques

Pros:

Stayed for the day during an airline transfer. Close walk to the mosques and bazaars. Plenty of nightlife. Hotel has a really nice rooftop restaurant that you can see the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia during sunrise. I would stay here again

Pros:

Staff was friendly, the cleaning crew doesnt sweep the floors, the windows that opened in bathroom was broken. It was quiet but the camera outside rooms on 5th floor kept clicking and turning the light on all night.

Pros:

all staff are very kind and friendly. Location is good.
The roads around hotel are close (only walking) from 10:00am to 6;00pm, so taxi can not go in front of the hotel.

Pros:

Perfect location close to attractions. It was a little hard to find as the sign was not very big, but location was perfect. Breakfast was absolutely amazing!!! Staff was friendly and let us check in early as our room was ready early. Definitely recommend. Location is far from the airport you will need to Uber/cab it there. Hotel offers 50 euro transportation. Using metro can take 2hrs with transfers. We opted for Uber (most users are cabs). Location and breakfast was most important to us and air conditioning. This place was perfect. We booked two rooms because we have older kids. The had two rooms connected with a locking door (very nice to have that). Highly recommend this hotel!!!

Pros:

I had a great stay at this charming hotel. While it’s not very big, it was incredibly accommodating and had everything I needed. The staff were outstanding—special thanks to Yaseen and Zulfiye, who were especially helpful and friendly throughout my stay. Their warm hospitality really made a difference. The breakfast was a highlight—fresh, tasty, and a perfect start to the day. The location is also fantastic, literally right next to the trams, which made getting around so convenient. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
