Perfectly located
Great location in old town. Walking distance to major attractions. Lots of great restaurants. Hotel staff could not be more accommodating, knowledgeable or professional. Good breakfast. Great place to stay.

My boyfriend and I had a 10 day trip to 6 different cities in Turkey. Out of all the hotels we stayed at (there were 6 of them) this hotel was the best by far. The room was clean, staff helpful, great location, and excellent breakfast. I recommend sitting up on the small terrace balcony and enjoy the view of the Blue Mosque with some Efes from the convenience store across the street. One of our favorite things was that the AC was on 24/7 in our rooms which we hadn’t found at any hotel we’d stayed at. If you’re going to visit Istanbul, just stay here!!!!!!!!!!

Old fashion room, friendly stuff, quiet place and safe to stay. I would suggest to improve the breakfast menu, otherwise I recommend the hotel for your vacation.

Relaxing stay
Pleasant boutique hotel with amazing location for main tourist sites and places to eat. Room was comfortable and clean, with all expected amenities. Reception staff were helpful and arranged airport transfers to and from. Breakfast was tasty too, with stunning view of the Blue Mosque from the outdoor terrace

Cool central hotel
The location was very central to everything. Just a ten minute walk away from major sites and the metro which I appreciated. The rooms have a fun style and the terrace breakfast was always great and the views were great too.

Staff was amazing. Close to tourist sites and restaurants. Be careful of the restaurant options as some restaurants are clean, others questionable. Great experience

Our weeks stay was very comfortable and well serviced. The staff were very helpful and all our transportation were organised per our requests. The breakfast was refreshing and something not experienced before which we really enjoyed as a family.
Highly recommend the hotel for convenience to local attractions, comfort and service.

Breakfast was disappointing. Poor choice of fruit, the rest seemed to be mainly caked
Location ideal for historic sites
