Hotel is in a great location. Staff is top notch...helpful, friendly, professional, accommodating. Rooms are totally serviceable, but could use a bit of refresh. Every request, every need was met with fast, efficient response. Dining room breakfast staff was top notch, also. Highest praise and recognition to Sergi who was "the best". She was so friendly, and helpful. Brought good cheer and "sunshine" to the breakfast room. Shout out also to Yusuf. Definitely would stay at Ottoman Hotel Imperial again

Most of the things were very good like the welcoming, most of the staff, breakfast and the team at the restaurant. But the location was so hard to go up and down over the hill and main street, and the taxi plan was so unprofessional due to service and range they gave me and later it was totally different. Thank you Regards
