The view from its terrace where guests can take their breakfast is great. We could see that there are several other hotels which offer breakfast with view, but this might be one of the most affordable. The woman in the breakfast room was always friendly and nice. I have a suggestion regarding the food though. The large quantity of olives... More

Very near Blue Mosque and Ayasophia and Topkapi Palace. Hotel is located amongst quaint narrow streets, sea view from breakfast terrace on roof. When you book ask for room near the top of the hotel for a better view. We stayed in room 303 which was nice, just about see the sea, large bed, nicely decorated and very clean, but... More

While we were greeted warmly on arrival, the room was extremely small. I could not fit on the bed. The bathroom was small and stuffy. Since we had an early morning start we requested for breakfast but was declined saying nothing can be served before 8 am. We found this to be rather strange. The outside noise gets to you.... More

We stayed in this hotel from 18 till 21st of April 2013. To be honest te were dissapointed. We got the room on 5th floor, just beneath the (breakfast)terace. The room was very noisy because of the thin doors and walls. Every day from 07.00 we woke up because of the staff preparing breakfast and guests having breakfast. We spoke... More

As other guests have said, the service is excellent. The hotel is very charming and clean. Bathrooms were surprisingly modern with very large showers by European standards. Rooms were small and bed a bit firm for my taste, but the superior service and delicious breakfast more than compensated for those shortcomings. If the quality of the accommodations are more important... More

The hotel has the perfect location. The price is good. The rooms are small but clean -- so long as you're planning to spend most of the day out and about this shouldn't be a problem. Breakfast is a bit disappointing but the view from the terrace is gorgeous. The night clerk seemed a bit too friendly -- kept suggesting... More
