I booked a room with panoramic view. It's the whole reason I chose the hotel. Upon arrival, only a regular view room was given. I called the reception and he argued that one of the pictures on display was not panoramic view and it's upon availability. However, the room size wasn't right, and I paid more for the room type. I was moved to the right room the next day. No price difference was given for the first day. They should be more honest with the room description by removing the wrong picture and honor the room type per booking.

A hotel ultimately rests on the quality of its staff and the staff here are amazing from Ali and reception staff to the excellent Peninsula restaurant staff - with a special mention to Besat and the lovely cleaning and service staff. The room was spotlessly clean with fantastic views over the city from tbd rooftop restaurant. I would happily stay here again and recommend unreservedly .

Nice surprise in Istanbul
We found the hotel to be clean and the staff to be friendly. The shower was great and the restaurant at the top of the hotel was excellent. When we go back to Istanbul, we will be staying at this hotel again.

It is a fantastic location to visit Istanbul sights but that also means it is quite noisy. But then I imagine most of Istanbul is noisy. Easy walk to the trams and tunnel train. The staff were superb, friendly and helpful. Ali and his team could not do enough for us. The area is a little odd - the hardware district, but we found that it felt safe at all times, and somewhat interesting. Many fresh fish restaurants nearby on the waterfront. Breakfast is excellent. It is an inexpensive, functional hotel that works well for a short stay. Many people seemed disappointed with their rooms but that is a reflection of their high expectations and clever marketing photos. It's fine. We booked for 5 nights and stayed 8 and , if I was to return to Istanbul,I would stay there again. Recommended.

The hotel is located by the waterfront and restaurants, but also surrounded by tool/hardware shops. It's a convenient area between Tarlabaşı an up-and-coming neighborhood known for its gentrification (Streets are packed with stores and restaurants) and the old city across the Galata bridge. The traffic may make it difficult to sleep during the daytime (it does quiet down a bit during the night time). There are several public transportation options a short walk from the hotel.
