Excellent Staff, always there to help. Would like to see more soundproofing, specifically in the bathrooms as we could hear from next Room’s Bathroom. Great location. Would recommend definitely and will stay there again.

Very convenient location, the hotel is in between the Blue Mosque and Aya Sofya Mosque (so you hear the call to prayer lound and clear 5 times a day). The hotel is very nicely decorated with beautiful Turkish rugs and tilework. The rooftop is amazing and the free breakfast each morning was great. Very kind and helpful staff.
