    friendly staff
    excellent wi-fi

    This hotel suits me perfectly with its excellent wi-fi, friendly staff, and 24-hour reception. They took care of my elderly parents during our first stay. Feride's kindness made our mornings special. I’m definitely coming back for a city trip!

    amazing central site for exploring historical istanbul

    my stay was enhanced by the outstanding accessibility to the nearby blue mosque, just about a 20-minute stroll away, and enjoying lovely meals only a few steps from my hotel at local cafes, which made my weekend exploring the city truly memorable.

    surprise decoration
    pianist breakfast
    relaxing foot massage
    malfunctioning hair dryer

    We had a lovely time here celebrating our one-year anniversary, and the team surprised us with a room decorated just for the occasion! The breakfast was great, accompanied by a pianist that set a nice mood, and we enjoyed the sauna and a lovely foot massage. Just a heads up, the hair dryer in our room wasn’t working well, but that didn’t take away from our wonderful stay! 🎉

    A Cozy Escape in the Heart of Istanbul

    Spent four nights enjoying the local culture. The staff went above and beyond to recommend hidden gems around the city. Try the nearby eateries for authentic Turkish cuisine. A refreshing break after a day of exploring and a great way to immerse yourself in Istanbul’s vibrant atmosphere.

    live music
    nightclub
    noise issues

    Had a great time with friends! We enjoyed a couple of lively nights with live music from a talented artist and danced at the nightclub. The location is brilliant for exploring. Pro tip, Breakfast is basic, and some extras cost extra, so plan accordingly!

    However, the sound insulation wasn't great. I could hear the music from the bar until the early morning, which made it tough to sleep sometimes.

    pool smell

    Awesome corner room vibes

    We got the corner room, and it was way bigger than expected! Super comfy, with cool ceiling lights and a whirlpool. Breakfast spread was delish too. Turkish food in the restaurant? So good! Just a bit of a funky smell from the pool nearby, which was kinda odd.

    great staff support but air conditioning issues

    The staff were incredibly helpful when we faced issues with the air conditioning. They offered to move us to another room if they couldn’t fix it, showing their commitment to guest satisfaction.

    But we did encounter air conditioning issues that needed to be addressed.

    great location
    fantastic shower
    limited breakfast options
    noise issues

    The location is fantastic for sightseeing, and I really appreciated the hotel's commitment to accessibility. The room was spacious and had beautiful fittings, making it comfortable for my needs. I also loved the shower! It had great water pressure and was easy to access.

    The breakfast options could be more accommodating for diverse dietary needs.

    live music
    great staff
    bathroom ventilation

    We had a wonderful stay with two other couples! The live music at the restaurant was a delightful surprise, and we enjoyed dancing the night away. The staff, particularly Feride, went above and beyond, helping us discover hidden gems in Istanbul.

    In my wife’s opinion, the bathrooms could use better ventilation. A small fan would go a long way for families with children.

    rooftop breakfast
    warm hospitality

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    I was absolutely enchanted by the rooftop breakfast with breathtaking views of the city skyline that felt like a scene from a dream! The staff's warm hospitality, especially Serhat's thoughtful food arrangements when we got hungry late at night, made us feel so cared for. Plus, who can resist complimentary treats and live piano music to start the day on a high note?

    do recommend 😊❤️

    exciting location
    live music
    noise disturbances

    Location excels with easy access to public transport and major attractions, making it a breeze to explore. The live music at the on-site bar creates a lively atmosphere that some may find enjoyable, especially for those looking to socialize.

    Noise from the bar and nearby restaurants can be disruptive, particularly if you're hoping for a peaceful night's sleep. some rooms lack soundproofing. Several guests have noted that the rooms are smaller than advertised, which can feel cramped. The breakfast offerings received mixed reviews, with some finding the selection limited and lacking variety as their stay progressed.
