Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Pros:

Location was amazing, just a block away from the Hagia Sophia, tram station and Blue Mosque. Very convenient. They even allowed a late check out to facilitate our flight later that night.

Cons:

TV channels were not easily accessible.

This hotel is okay but basic.
Pros:

The hotel is in a good location in the old town.

Cons:

It’s not 4 star quality, more like a 3 star. The rooms are dated and very basic.

Pros:

Идеальное размещение отеля. До площади Султанахмет несколько минут пешком. Радом куча ресторанчиков , магазинов и обменников.
Очень добродушный персонал. Всегда готовы помочь и ответить на вопросы. Приехали в 6 утра, в 10 нас уже заселили в номер , без доплаты за раннее бронирование.
Номер вполне уютный и чистый. Вешалок только мало в шкафу , но это мелочь

Cons:

Завтраки не понравились совсем. Очень скудно и однообразно. Те изменения заключались в том что например в какие то дни не было зелени или еще чего то. Но никак не том что что то прибавлялось. 5 дней есть одно и то же тяжеловато

Pros:

Everything was great. The staff upgraded my room, and the location is very close to Sultanahmet square. The breakfast was also satisfying, and you can enjoy it on the rooftop while looking at the Blue Mosque. It was a clean room with stylish interior in the old city.

Cons:

None

Pros:

Hotel a due passi dalla moschea Blu, palazzo reale, ecc. e da mezzi di trasporto pubblici.
Staff cordiale e presente.
Terrazza colazione con vista molto piacevole.
Camera spaziosa, silenziosa, pulita e molto comoda. Abbiamo dormito perfettamente.
Ci tornerei.

Cons:

Non c'è un servizio bar interno a parte per la colazione. Ma è possibile portarsi da bere autonomamente e usufruire della terrazza.
Frigo chiuso dentro all'armadio della camera non raffredda. Lasciando sempre aperta l anta tutto funziona a meraviglia.
