Pros:

Charming hotel in the best location in Istanbul, close to all main historic sites. Beautiful breakfast in the rooftop restaurant with sweeping views of the Bosphorus. Have a cocktail here in the evening it is a lovely setting. The staff at the hotel are so so helpful. Comfortable beds, and all room amenities you need. We stayed here twice and will definitely return.

Cons:

If I had feedback about something I would say the breakfast could start 30 minutes earlier for those who have early tour departures.

Un superbe hôtel en plein centre ville
Pros:

Chambre confortable, bonne literie
Petites attentions à notre arrivée qui font très plaisir
La localisation est parfaite. À 5 min à pied de Sainte Sophie !
Le petit déjeuner est excellent et la vue est superbe. Varié et qualitatif, rien à redire
Piscine sauna et Hammam compris dans le prix de la chambre ce qui est bien agréable

Cons:

L’insonorisation n’est pas la meilleure mais il y a peu de bruits dans cette rue cela ne nous a pas dérangés.

Pros:

Хороший отель в спокойном месте, удобно идти с трамвая Т1 минут 10. Но если вы с чемоданами из IST на автобусе - лучше идти с его конечной остановки вдоль набережной, потом под мостом, и чуть-чуть в горку, путь гугла через город - это сплошные высоченные подъемы. Персонал ресепшн приветливый, уборка номера - отличная, честно говоря, мы в Турции редко, и уборка тут всегда поражает качеством, по сравнению с Европой. Завтрак хороший. В ресторане понравилась только рыба, салаты очень кислые и не показались свежими. В последний день обнаружили приятный внутренний дворик.

Cons:

Неплохой спа, но бассейн был грязный, и подогретая вода, кому-то может нравится, нам слишком теплая. Номера очень маленькие, действительно, но это историческое здание.

Pros:

The location is excellent, just a short walk from the city’s historic highlights like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated, offering a cozy atmosphere. The staff were warm and attentive, making the experience feel very welcoming. Breakfast was varied and delicious, with a nice local touch, accept offering Turkish bread which I was missing out. Overall, it was a delightful stay, I’d happily recommend it and rate it 9/10.

Great hotel in brilliant location.
Pros:

Location is fantastic for all attractions in Sultanahmet. The breakfast is well worth it many options available and an unbeatable view of the Bosporus River. Our room was well appointed and immaculately clean. Front of house staff were so very helpful in every way. Great dining options nearby. Walk to all attractions. Nearby tram stop. Recommend this hotel highly.

Cons:

Breakfast dining could start a little earlier.
