Brilliant hotel, located close to some of the main attractions in Sultanahmet - and within easy reach (5mins walk) of two tram lines. The room and bathroom offered everything needed (including a fridge, free bottled water daily and air conditioning), the breakfast buffet had a good range of options, for an evening meal there was an on-site (paid) restaurant - and the staff were very welcoming and friendly.

Great location with walking distance to Blue Mosque and other sites. Lots of restaurants and shopping close by. The only negative is it’s a very busy noisy street so hard to sleep as hotel is above the restaurant. Restaurant was fantastic
