I had a brief stay (one night), but I'd recommend this highly. Close to everything I wanted to see. It's on a street with many restaurants and shops so you will be duly entertained. The room was clean, sharply appointed, and all that I needed.

Excellent hotel & staff, good quality price!
The hotel and the room are very clean and comfortable.
Very well located, a short walk to Aya Sofia and the blue mosque.
The staff are very friendly, specially Mr Ahmet at reception, very polite and helpful, gave me good places to visit and where to eat at very reasonable prices.
Happy to stay again for next trips.

The property managers were absolutely awesome. Both gentlemen treated us so kindly and attentively, constantly checking to see if there was anything we needed.
The location was fantastic, just a very short stroll to the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque and surrounded by so many dining and shopping choices! We’ll be back!

We really loved staying at this hotel. It was very clean and the rooms were spacious. The views from the terrace are spectacular. If they offered breakfast it would have been ideal.

Excelent hotel highly recommended! Staff were always friendly and available 24 hours. I stayed for 5 nights location is great, surrounded by many restaurants and lots of nightlife. Perfect for young people who wants to go out but stay in a walkable area. I'd book it again next time

The staff here are so so helpful in particular Hamit. He carried my 20kg suitcases up two flights of stairs without a complaint. No elevator is something to note. Hamit continued to be so helpful throughout my stay. It is situated near tourist attractions. The building is old and very easy to hear people from other rooms but the noise from street was not a problem. The room was clean and has a good shower and bathroom facility Bed comfortable
