The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed the delicious food at the rooftop restaurant and the stunning views from there. the location was also a big plus, as it was conveniently close to major attractions and had plenty of restaurants nearby. a great value for the price.
There were occasional noise issues, particularly in the rooms located below the restaurant. the sound of chairs scraping on the ceiling could be disruptive, especially late at night.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the heart of the city. The location was unbeatable, just steps away from major tourist sites like Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace. We were able to explore the city on foot and easily access all the places of interest. The hotel facilities were great, with a nice terrace on the top floor offering stunning views and a bar and restaurant. Although we didn't try the restaurant, the staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The family room was spacious and comfortable, providing great value for money. Highly recommended!
Can't fault anything about our stay.

The hotel is ideally located, just a short walk away from the major tourist attractions. You can easily reach the historical sites and landmarks within minutes. It is also conveniently close to the Grand Bazaar, perfect for shopping enthusiasts. The rooms are spacious and clean, with comfortable beds and good showers. The breakfast offers a variety of options, including traditional Turkish dishes and cereals. The friendly and helpful staff make your stay even more enjoyable.
One downside is that the noise from the street can be slightly bothersome in some rooms, but it doesn't significantly impact the overall experience.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I particularly liked the large sitting area with a view. The hotel's location was fantastic, making it easy to visit all the major attractions. The staff was friendly and the service was excellent. I also enjoyed the breakfast on the roof deck, with its beautiful views of the city.
All was well, no improvements needed.
