Henna Hotel in Istanbul... the best
Absolutely excellent stay, this is our 2nd time here and well worth the trip from the airport. The staff are attentive and you feel that personal touch the moment you enter the door. Breakfast is amazing, tv is huge, overall extremely happy with our choice in Istanbul. Also very well placed for the blue mosque, hagia sofia and palace, all 10 mibutes walk away

Brilliant hotel with an absolutely excellent breakfast! Our room was a decent size with a modern bathroom and was quiet too. The hotel is easy walk to all the major sights, and close to a tram stop which can take you to the airport bus or Eminonu pier for ferries. The only thing to consider is that most restaurants around the hotel cater to tourists so do your research!
