Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. Tout le personnel a été exceptionnel par sa gentillesse, son professionnalisme et sa disponibilité.
Un grand merci à Salih, qui parle français et nous a énormément aidés pour nos réservations et nos déplacements. Son aide a été précieuse tout au long de notre séjour.
Merci également à Emrah, Turgam et Timur, toujours très serviables, accueillants et prêts à rendre service.
Nous souhaitons aussi remercier les équipes du petit-déjeuner : Semra, Yagmur et Seyda, qui nous ont accueillis chaque matin avec le sourire et leur bonne humeur. Leur gentillesse a rendu nos petits-déjeuners très agréables.
L'hôtel est très propre et idéalement situé, à proximité du tramway et des principaux sites historiques d'Istanbul. Nous recommandons cet hôtel sans hésiter et y reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

Pros:

La habitacion es tamaño normal para una estadia corta. El desayuno muy bueno y el personal muy atento. Pudimos dejar una valija y al regresar a Estambul estaba todo en orden.

Æstætisk, moderne hotel i hjertet af Sultan Ahmet / Grand Bazar.
Pros:

Det ligger virkelig i hjertet af Sultan Ahmet og meget tæt på Bazaren. Så hvis man skal på udflugt i dette område kan det anbefales. Hotellet ligger 3 minutter fra tram hvor man kan komme ret langt. Hotellet har et klassisk design men er meget nyt og der er rent. Vi havde udsigt til gaden hvilket var meget smukt. Det kan anbefales.
Hvis du kommer i bil så kan de også hjælpe med parkering.

Cons:

Vi fik rigtig mange beskeder på whatssapp inden vores ophold med tilbud vi kunne benytte os af og det samme gælder da vi ankom. Det var ikke noget vi havde brug for så det var træls for os - hvis man ikke kender byen så er det nu meget godt med de tilbud. Så jeg har ikke noget negativt at sige om stedet og vil klart komme igen :)
