"Stayed in December
Staff are excellent and lean over backwards to help.
Accommodation I was everything required and was qyiet even though it’s a busy location with lots of good bars and restaurants to choose from.
Location is fantastic for all the big tourist sites, no more than 15 minutes even for pier for Bosporus cruises or the Topkapi palace.
Would be my first choice when I return to Istanbul."
"Beautiful little hotel at the edge of the old town. Easy access to the main roads but also walking distance to the old centre. The staff was so friendly and helped us out with parking, refreshments and a nice conversation every day. The room was small but decorated with style and the upper terrace was a nice place to end the day with a view over the water . We would highly recommend."
"Very small property, a few blocks from the major sites in Sultanhet. Loved it!
Gracious staff. Breakfasts were amazing- they covered my table for 4 with a wide variety breakfast foods.
Well priced, clean, safe, great location - this hits all of my requirements."
"Great hotel and staff!
The room has a great location, with 10% discount at the restaurant and free bottles of water, tea, coffee and baclava is definitely a plus on the staying.
Totally recommend!"
