Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had rooms with cozy balconies, providing quiet and comfortable accommodation. While some rooms lacked daylight views and were small, they were still cozy and quiet, offering a comfortable stay.
The hotel is located in a fantastic spot, just next to the Blue Mosque and minutes away from Hagia Sophia. The rooms were a bit stuffy and not very clean, but having a balcony with a view of the Bosphorus and Blue Mosque was a plus. The service was kind and very supportive, although there were some disturbances at night. The dining was a mixed experience with good local products but some online disappointments. The exceptional location compensates for the room issues and service hiccups.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, just minutes away from Sultanahmet and all the main tourist attractions. The service was a bit of a letdown as I wasn't initially given the room I booked and had noise issues during the night. However, the staff were friendly and accommodating. The dining was hit or miss, with some tasty options but also some disappointments.
I had the most amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were simply stunning, offering a magnificent view of the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia from a big terrace. They were not only spacious but also spotlessly clean with a small table, and the daily towel change was a nice touch. The value for money here is exceptional.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean and comfortable with fresh towels provided daily. The staff was incredibly polite and helpful, offering top-notch services from room facilities to kitchen assistance. The location was absolutely perfect, within walking distance to major attractions and surrounded by great dining options. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of delicious choices, and the view during breakfast was breathtaking. Overall, a great value for money!
