No major problems with this hotel. Small, cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated hotel room. Husband and I only stayed there one night. We were picked up at the airport without complications. Staff at the front desk were professional and spoke good English. Breakfast buffet contained a huge variety of foods to taste and sample. Staff pleasant in helping us plan... More

The location of the hotel is absolutely perfect. The hotel service was very good, the hotel itself very nice and clean. Rooms are rather small, but very nice. Bath is well equipped, only water flowed a little poorly in our room. All in all, a perfect place for a short trip to Istanbul with loads of stuff within walking distance.

We landed is Istanbul late evening and drove to the hotel, which is well located, very close to the blue mosque. We had already paid for the rooms(deluxe room). The staff on duty showed us a room which was as big as the broom closet, with single beds and absolutely no place to stand and situated is some far corner... More

We chose this hotel because of the location and the good deal available and had no regrets. First, the niggles - shower temperature was variable, AC in the room didn't always work properly and the facilities were OK. However, this was ore than compensated for by the great location (between the sea and the Blue Mosque) and the very helpful... More

The hotel is very well situated for all the tourist attractions of Istanbul. Most are within 10 to 15 minutes of walking distance.

Room rate is similar to other hotels of similar... More

This hotel caters extremely well for all the sightseeing you want to do. You don't need to use public transport you can literally walk everywhere. The hotel has recently been re-decorated so looks clean and fresh and our room was stylishly furnished although the bed mattress did not suit me as it was far too soft and I developed a... More

When our airport pick-up couldn't find the hotel, after several phone calls, the van dropped us off a few streets away and someone from the hotel came out to find us! Everyone was very helpful and friendly; our room was on the 3rd floor & had a great view of the Blue Mosque (&, if we craned our neck, a... More

Brilliant location, breakfast is OK but you have to pay extra for omelette etc. Boiled eggs are included though. The hotel and rooms are relatively small but OK for a couple and the decor is brilliant. Free WiFi also included which is very useful. Best thing is location though, walking distance from major attractions and grand bazaar and also very... More
