Excellent hotel if you want to experience luxury in a historical place
Pros:

Exceptional hotel with lots of history. The decor is sumptuous and very well maintained. It really feels like stepping in history at the time the Orient Express was used to travel to Istanbul.

Cons:

The restaurant of the hotel was pretty good, although I would have appreciated if it also had Turkish food served so that travellers could try Turkish local specialties.

Wonderful experience
Pros:

Beautiful old hotel with lots of interesting things to look at. We stayed on the sixth floor and the view was incredible from our little balcony. Appreciated all the little details, like the robes and the chocolates and the branding. The staff were lovely and we had a great time here, would definitely come back.
