“Lovely friendly staff. Amazing fresh gözleme for breakfast! Rooms could be spruced up a bit”
Staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The breakfast had a normal enough buffet but was lifted enormously by the Turkish lady who made fresh gözlemes to order in the little courtyard - kneading the dough, loading it with fillings and then cooking it fresh on the gas hot-plate stove. This was a delicious highlight to start the day! The location was convenient for walking to the main sights in Sultanahmet/Eminönü (e.g. Hagia Sophia, blue mosque and the grand bazaar) and the Sultanahmet tram stop is an easy walk from the hotel for getting across to the Beyoğlu side of town.

“The best stay in Istambul!”
Breakfast - very rich and tasty. Freshly squeezed orange juice every day. Extremely friendly personal, that is ready to make everything that your stay would be enjoying. We had an issue in our room - some tiny sound every 10 seconds, however it was not possible to sleep at all, because of that we have got a room upgrade.

The location is superb. We had late night strolls every night as the main attractions are so close. However, the best part of this hotel is its staff. We were there with a 1-year old and had the best experience we could have. The staff was so helpful, always cheerful, supporting and friendly. Our little boy loved it. He loved seeing all of the guys there every time we were to go out or come back. His smile when he sees them and their interaction is the best review you can get. We would definitely come back cause of these guys! Well done!
