I agree with Alexandre A, this is an excellent hotel. It was chosen for us by our future daughter-in-law, who is Turkish, and what a choice! We found it an excellent location for getting to the main sites in the city and the views from our rooms and the top floor restaurant were stunning, over the Bosphorus and across to the Golden Horn and the Blue Mosque. From what our daughter in law told us, it was also very good value for Istanbul, but we can't confirm this as we didn't look at everything else. We arrived late one afternoon and therefore ate at the hotel that evening. We were going to eat in the city the following evening, but we enjoyed our meal so much, we went for another meal there. the bedrooms were all we wanted, and the hotel staff were always very helpful and friendly. If we went back to Istanbul (and we would like to do so), we would definitely return to La Maison, as we had no problems with the room or the breakfast.
