Pros:

La vista y el personal. Nos hicieron el upgrade a una habitación con balcón y vista al mar.

Cons:

Había un olor extraño que subía por los desagues del baño pero quizás es algo de esa zona de Estambul.

Optimales Hotel für eine Städtereise nach Istanbul
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist top - 5 min fußläufig zur Hagia Sophia und Sultan-Ahmed-Moschee.
Das gesamte Personal war extrem freundlich, bemüht und zuvorkommend. Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber und vom Stil her authentisch (wie man auch auf den Fotos von booking sieht).
Würde das Hotel auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!

Good value for the price.
Pros:

Good location. The reception desk staff was very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

While the room was clean, it could use some maintenance: wallpaper was coming off in a couple of spots. Otherwise, no concerns.
