Reviews and Ratings
My stay was a mix of positives and negatives. The hotel offers a serene location with easy access to major sights but suffers from noisy rooms that are uncomfortably warm. The service was exceptional, catering to all my needs with care. Dining experience was delightful, although the noise from the street could be a downside.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were so nice and comfortable, with lovely sea views. They were spacious, nicely decorated, and kept clean. The location was excellent, very central in the old part of Istanbul yet nestled in a quiet side street with a delightful garden. The service was outstanding, especially Murad who was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience a memorable one. The dining experience, although good, could benefit from more variety in the breakfast options. Overall, a great value for the price.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were exactly as requested, spotless, and spacious, although a bit dated. The large room was comfortably furnished and even had a balcony overlooking a shaded courtyard. The downside was being on the top floor without a lift, but it still had everything I needed.
The hotel's rooms were seriously outdated, smaller than expected, and showed signs of wear. On the bright side, they were clean and convenient. The service was unbelievably helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to accommodate guests. The location was great, within walking distance of major attractions in Istanbul. The facilities were well-maintained, but the rooms were generally in need of updating.

The dining experience was decent, with a variety of tasty options. Overall, a great value for the money.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although showing some wear signs, were spacious and equipped with a fridge and complimentary tea/coffee, but being situated on a busy narrow street with an incline was a downside. The service was exceptionally helpful and friendly, offering assistance with various arrangements. The location was excellent for exploring historical sites but a bit challenging due to the busy surroundings. The dining options were enjoyable, especially the Turkish coffee. Overall, a stay with ups and downs worth considering.
