Great location and stunning rooftop terrace views!

Overall my wife and I both enjoyed our stay here. Sadly we were disappointed having opted for a deluxe room based on the picture of such a room on line which had a view of the city including the Blue Mosque that room on the 2nd floor was fine but had no view. That said, the room was spacious and spotlessly clean. We did find it difficult to sleep at night due to the air conditioning not being cool enough. The location of the hotel was definitely its best feature, being a short walk from Sultanahmet. We were able to walk to key sites and the tram stop was close by. We had planned to eat in the rooftop terrace restaurant on our first night but it was fully booked when we arrived. Worth booking ahead so as not to be disappointed. The views from the rooftop terrace were stunning, especially later in the evening. This was the highlight of the hotel. The complimentary breakfast in the terrace restaurant with great views had a good choice, all served to your table. The staff in the restaurant were efficient but not very cheerful. Durjan, who greeted us on our arrival and showed us to our room, stood out throughout our visit. He was very helpful, always welcoming and offered suggestions to make our visit in Istanbul even better.

We absolutely loved the proximity to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia -- and our view of these was FABULOUS! The staff upgraded our room, gave us a tram card, offered valuable information regarding the city, holidays, transportation, etc and mostly they were just so nice. The breakfast was wonderful, but the menu was limited for other meals. Our room was large and the room darkening shades were much appreciated. We'd stay here again and recommend to all.

Their service is excellent. Very safe area for tourists. Walking distance from the main attractions, shops, restaurants and the tram station. Dedending on the room chosen, you can have a breathtaking view of Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque and the Bosphosous. Their muhammara at breakfast is to die for.

Great hotel

This is a really nice hotel in a really central location. A very easy walk to the Blue Mosque and other key attractions. It is super close to all the old town sites and very handy to transport options. The hotel’s restaurant has an amazing view over the city. The room was spacious and the bed was comfy.

Hotel is overall 3-4 star. Our room is a standard sea view which has a nice view of the Mosque & Hagia Sophia. Very nice location in the heart of everything you need Less than 5 min walk to Metro. They can improve the breakfast. Fried Eggs are very toasted and very dry. Our bathroom has a smell. Kinda like a sewer smell.
