We were there for six nights and each morning we were greeted with a big smile from Ira and the staff at breakfast. Does this girl ever have a day off? She was still there each evening!! Long hours!!

Best Service Hotel

It was a good place to stay. The staff, Demirie, Irada and all others were wonderful, friendly, helped us and guided us in many aspects. They did everything they could. While i have read few reviews from past guests, I feel most those reviews that complained seemed not valid as the guests should understand that the owners, the staff try to do best to accomodate different types of people. It is difficult to meet everyone's needs but I saw everything good.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I can confidently say it was one of the best hospitality experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our stay was comfortable and stress-free. The service throughout the hotel was top-notch — friendly, attentive, and always with a smile. Every request was met promptly, and we genuinely felt valued as a guest. A special shoutout goes to Murat, our driver, who was absolutely fantastic. He was punctual, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Murat made our transportation seamless and added a personal touch that made a big difference. His warm personality and helpfulness truly stood out. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a stay that combines comfort, excellent service, and a personal touch. I’ll definitely be returning!

Great Hotel, professional ans superb hospitality

From my check-in to check-out everything was great. I’ve arrived very early at the hotel, Mr Kamuran was at the reception (hotel manager) he welcomed me with a great smile, his very friendly and professional. Mr Kamuran has offered me to upgraded my room for free of charge 🙏. Breakfast at hotel is a traditional Turkish breakfast, you can’t go wrong with Turkish breakfast anyway. My room was quite big with balcony, really nice and clean. During my stay every single hotel staff was asking me if there was anything more they could do. Hotel is at a very central location, it’s walking distance to all amenities, Hagia Sophia mosque, blue mosque and topkapi place is 5 mins walking distance, public transport (tram) is 5 mins walking distance, grand bazaar is walking distance too. Most of hotel staff speaks English, some speak Russian and Arabic as well, it’s easy to communicate. I like to thank all hotel staff for their great hospitality and professional service. Speacial thanx to Mr Kamuran

Breakfast room very cosy, good choice of food, excellent staff. 10 minutes walk to the main attractions. Dimitri is a great manager, helpful with local information and tours without being pushy! Also Richard, the night manager, was very welcoming.
