I had a lovely stay here. The location is terrific! You can walk to all the sites in Old Town. The room was nice and I had a nice little balcony. One of the best parts was the AMAZING rooftop terrace. The view is just stunning!

The place was spotless and the young man at the desk was incredibly helpful. He went out of his way to help us. I was thoroughly impresses by him. The location was great. Easy sightseeing from here. Breakfast was different but mostly typical to the area. The only problem I had was there was not a shuttle that I thought was provided. Other than that it was great!

The staff was excellent & very helpful. The view from the rooftop deck was perfection!! Breakfasts were very good. It is a very short walk to the most important major places to see (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar, Egyptian/Spice Bazaar, several museums, etc). Easily walkable to restaurants & shops. Staff helped us take the train which was nearby. We also walked down & were able to hop on a boat to take a 1.5 hr tour on the Bosphorus.

Great location. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast staff could be more attentive and offer to prepare eggs, etc. instead of guests having to call them out of the back room to order. Tables should be cleaned as guests finish. When we arrived for breakfast at 9 a.m. most tables were covered with dirty dishes.
