The hotel is newly renovated, rooms are super clean. The location is excellent — close to Galata Tower, Pera, cafes and restaurants. The street is lively daytime and quiet at night (no bars etc), windows have excellent sound isolation, so no sound is coming in. The hotel stuff is amazing. Everyone is extremely helpful and polite. Extra tip: don't skip the restaurant on the top floor. The views are to die for!
