Lovely view in a great location

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Staff was caring and helpful. Breakfast was okay (juice was spoiled, but otherwise a decent selection of hot and cold food was there). Soundproofing could have been better. We loved the sea view!

It was a quiet a welcoming setting. Walking distance to a lot of fun historic places. But most of all, I loved every staff member I met there. I genuinely felt that they cared about me and my family and did everything they could to make our stay a memorable one.
Nabil, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Coming from madina extremely tired Istanbul was hot and the room was extremely hot only to find out there was no air conditioning in the room had to leave the windows open for cool air but the street outside was very noisy
Jamshed, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really like the hotel and the area around. The only thing which they can improve on is to facilitate the customers a bit more. I booked 2 rooms for 5 persons but because of some confusion on the websites, it was booked for 4 persons instead of 5 but the rooms capacity was 5 persons. So they charged me around 130 US dollars extra which could have been easily avoided. Otherwise the hotel location and food were excellent.

Very good hotel, just three blocks from the Hippodrome. Very good cleaning, the attention of the staff is excellent and they are all very attentive to the needs of the guests. If you choose a room with sea view you can contemplate beautiful views. I recommend it.

Nadia, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff are wonderful and the included breakfast a bonus. The only complaint was fact despite saying it is close to the mosques, it’s important to know the location is very hilly and not suitable for elderly or people with young kids. We spent a lot of money on taxis, to and from more lively areas like Galata.
