Great experience, I would definitely recommend staying here
Pros:

Everything was wonderful from start to finish. My mother and I stayed at the hotel together, and we received such a warm welcome. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and caring, which made our stay especially enjoyable, we truly felt like welcome guests

The room was bright, clean, and modern, with a large window overlooking the street. It was cleaned every day. The breakfast was delicious, and the location was excellent, making it easy to explore the city

Ціна=якість
Pros:

Прекрасне місце, персонал найкращий, а тераса в номері то окрема любов. Єдиним мінусом що спати з відчиненим вікном неможливо-шумно, але це Стамбул. Зачинене вікно вирішує питання. Метро поруч, автобусна станція поруч, трамвай 900 метрів. Істамбул карт придбати і поповнити можна у метро, але нам це не знадобилося, так як господиння дала у користування свою. Повернусь із задоволенням.

Pros:

Локация замечательнейшая! Отдыхали компанией подруг, все было прекрасно. Брали номер с террасой и один обычный. Вид на Босфор завораживает. А вечера с клубникой на террасе самая любимая часть поездки. Персонал отзывчивый и очень добрый. Рекомендуем 100 проц

We’ll be back again if we return to Istanbul. Great service, great location, great staff
Pros:

I lovely little hotel with 24 hour reception who can organise airport transfers. They contacted us via WhatsApp several times to confirm our booking firstly, then check on the details of our transfer a few days prior. Always clear and friendly communication.

We arrived at 6am and our room was cool and clean. We had paid for the day before to ensure our room was available so we were able to have breakfast the day we arrived. A lovely selection of breads, cheeses, vegetables and omelettes, with lots of fresh bread. All served in the cafe beneath the rooms, which is open for tea, coffee and snacks until 10pm. There is also a convenience store next door, for those last minute bits and pieces or late night snacks.

The room is a nice size with a very small balcony and great view of the city and the Golden Horn River. Room 304, is in fact the only room with a balcony, all other rooms have a Juliet balcony.

Plenty of shelf space and power points.

Shower was hot with great water pressure.

AC kept the room nice and cool with the option of opening a window or balcony door for fresh air.

All staff were fabulous and super helpful especially Narsely who organised for us to go to a Hamam close by, which was fabulous and definitely worth doing.

Very close to Galata Tower and only a short walking distance to many cafes, restaurants and bars.

Would definitely return if we were ever in Istanbul again.

Cons:

The bed is firm and small (double) and was too short for my 6’3 husband.

The room was very bright as the curtains didn’t cover the windows and the display from the AC lite up the room.

The towels were thin and forgotten on one day.

We like this Hotel
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel with my family! The staff truly went above and beyond; everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and speak English. They were always eager to assist whenever we had a request. The hotel itself was spotless, and our room was cleaned thoroughly every single day. The location is perfect—very close to the Metro and bus stations, and it was always easy to catch a taxi. We also really enjoyed the breakfast each morning. Highly recommended for families!

Ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Touren durch Istanbul
Pros:

Sehr netter und persönlicher Empfang; praktisch ist auch der angeschlossene kleine Laden, in dem man auch nach Ladenschluss noch alles für die Selbstversorgung findet.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist sehr zentral gelegen, was Autolärm bedeutet; die Fenster schliessen aber gut, so dass man nachts dennoch schlagen kann.
