    Loved the hotel, it is wonderful and clean, has great location to blue mosque. The staff was consistently courteous, and the service was incredible. The room was impeccably clean, with exceptionally comfortable bed and shower caps, fresh towels and slippers in the bathroom. The property met requirements, I will be returning here soon.

    The area was not very nice.

    The hotel was conveniently near the metro and tram lines. I appreciated the gym and sauna facilities, which added a nice touch to my stay. The rooftop bar with its pool provided a lovely spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. I visited several attractions like the Istanbul Archaeology Museums and Gulhane Park, which were just a short walk away, enhancing my overall experience.

    Some parts impressed, others didn't.

    Spacious and clean rooms! Plus, enjoyed the varied breakfast buffet with a wide selection of options.

    Unfriendly reception staff. Room noise was a problem, particularly on lower floors.

    The location is excellent, close to everywhere you want to be in Old Istanbul.Small swimmingpool at the roof top very enjoyable and the views from there are stunning. Special place to be. price paid through Booked.net was very much value for money.

    Room small, no view and a lot of building work noices. But: room clean and comfortable and you shouldn't spend much time in there to start with. Did smell often of people smoking.

    It was just a decent option for a passing visit in Istanbul with great value. The staff were very helpful, making check-in smooth despite initial hiccups. Make sure to get an Istanbul card for easier travel around the city.
