We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. We felt very welcomed and extremely well looked after by all their staff. We arrived early and the check in staff managed to get a room ready for us ahead of schedule which we greatly appreciated. During breakfast we were looked after by Erhan who was very friendly and helpful. Warisha also made us feel very welcome. Great location - highly recommend this hotel

Hotel bien situé mais bruyant
Hôtel très bien situé si vous souhaitez visiter les attractions majeures d'Istanbul, mais dans une rue passante et bruyante le soir à cause des nombreux bars et restaurants. Le petit déjeuner est très complet et bon et le service agréable (tant à l'accueil qu'au petit-déjeuner). Le restaurant/bar en rooftop est à faire pour avoir une vue imprenable sur Sainte-Sophie et sur la Mosquée Bleue. Par contre, l'isolation phonique des chambres laisse à désirer, au premier étage nous entendions l'accueil, ainsi que les chambres voisines. Et la rue passante de devant est également un nuisible important le soir. En résumé : hôtel très bien localisé mais à ne pas sélectionner si vous souhaitez du repos le soir après une journée de visites !

Fantastisk flinke og hyggelige personale. Ellers hadde vært greit med litt varierende frokost. Men renovering bør prioriteres i rommene. Badet spesielt er gammelt. Lyd isolasjon er veldig dårlig. Til prisen er det bra hotell.
