Highly recommended!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay and cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with kindness, warmth, and genuine hospitality. The staff were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and always willing to go above and beyond to ensure guests were comfortable.

A special mention goes to Ali, who kindly heated up our leftover food, provided cutlery, and even brought everything up to the terrace for us. It was a small gesture that truly reflected the outstanding level of service we experienced throughout our stay.

The housekeeping team was excellent, providing fresh towels every day and keeping the room clean and comfortable throughout our stay.

The hotel is also very well located, within just 10-15 minutes of many of Istanbul’s main attractions, making it easy to explore the city.

Our family room was a little on the small side, but this did not matter much as we spent most of our time out exploring Istanbul and enjoying everything the city has to offer.

The breakfast was tasty, with a good selection each morning, and Nargiza’s warm hospitality made it an enjoyable start to every day.

What makes this hotel even more impressive is that it offers all of this at a very budget-friendly price, providing exceptional value for money without compromising on service or cleanliness.

Our heartfelt thanks go to the exceptional staff members Shah, Ali, and the lovely breakfast lady, Nargiza. Their friendliness, professionalism, and dedication made our stay memorable and truly special.

We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for outstanding service, comfort, a great location, excellent value for money, and genuine hospitality.

Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt.
Pros:

Das Personal behandelt einen ab dem ersten Willkommen mit großer Herzlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und es wird jeder Wunsch des Gastes sofort umgesetzt. Sie haben sogar beim Frühstück noch extra für uns weiteres Brot vom Bäcker besorgt! Der Frühstücksraum und auch Dachterrasse sind toll mit Blick auf das Meer und wenn man möchte, frühstücken die Möwen mit.

Cons:

Allein die Einrichtung im Zimmer ist etwas abgewohnt

Totul a fost minunat
Pros:

Este a doua oara cind venim in Istanbul si venim la acelasi hotel.
Este situat destul de aproape de obiectivele turistice, aproape de mare si cit de cit aproape de mijloacele de transport.
Camera curata, mic dejun pe terasa de pe acoperisul hotelui (vedere splendida la mare), mincare diversificata, personalul foarte amabil si saritor.
Pentru o noua calatorie in Instanbul as alege acelasi hotel

Cons:

Destul de multa galagie seara de la terasele din jurul hotelului. Dar asta e si farmecul piatetei unde este situat hotelul.
Cu toate acestea pentru o noua calatorie in Istanbul as alege acelasi hotel.

Assez bien
Pros:

Le personnel était très à l'écoute, serviable. L'hotel était propre, petit déjeuné correct.

Cons:

L'emplacement, au milieu d'une place assez bruyante, en bas d'une colline à grimper tous les jours 😅 Transports pas très proches. Chambre assez étroites.
