The hotel's location is amazing. Short walking distance from all major tourist attractions. The breakfast buffet is superb, everything is delicious! Plus, everyone in the staff will always make you feel welcome, and will go out of their way to help you with anything you might need, and make sure you love and enjoy your stay! Highly recommend!

9/10 Wonderful! (1,736 reviews)
A splendid hotel nestled in the heart of the historic city. The staff were warm, welcoming, and always eager to help. Rooms are richly decorated, though the internet connection was poor, and under the beds could do with some cleaning. The lobby, adorned with authentic Ottoman-era furnishings, adds to the hotel's unique charm. But the true jewel in the turban is the rooftop restaurant where surrounded by the city’s iconic minarets, you can savor the complimentary breakfast with your fellow guests in the morning or enjoy a quiet, enchanting evening with a good book. My family and I look forward to visiting again!
