An absolute gem, the hotel was beautiful, the staff excellent. The location is ideal, right in the heart of Sultahmet, a lovely bazaar right outside the front and the views were amazing. The bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in! The breakfast options were many and varied, there was something for everyone. So pleased I stayed here.

Beautiful views

We had a brief stay here when we decided to extend our layover to include a tour of Istanbul. Splurging on the room with water views was worth it! The breakfast buffet was better than most hotels. The additional shuttle to and from the airport was very convenient. And the location was great for our tour (very close to the Blue Mosque). I would consider staying here again if we return to Istanbul. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

The location is very good. Staffs are very nice. The only problem is they were still using those grey old towels in the bathroom. Beddings was with hole (look like cigarette burn hole) and stains. You may want to bring your own towels. Remember to press the button to turn on air conditioning every time you are back to your room. Internet speed is OK but not stable at night.

Our Istanbul city break

A lovely hotel overlooking the Blue Mosque at the front, and the Bosphoros at the back where the restaurant and terrace is situated. Lovely views for breakfast. The staff were amazing, so helpful and always smiling. They couldn't do enough for us. Arranging taxis, providing advice on excursions etc.

Attractive old building right next to blue mosque and short walking distance to other attractions in Sultanahmet and bazaar district. Good friendly staff. The building doesn't have lifts and I was on second floor, but the concierge was very helpful. Breakfast was excellent.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Hotel does not elevator, which makes it inconvenient. Beds and sheets are due for replacement. I recommend to change the bathroom door to open outward. It is not functional the way it is today.

Fantastic hotel with beautiful views

The hotel and its staff are amazing. They helped with questions and requests with a pleasant manner. The hotel is in a GREAT location. You get beautiful views of the ocean off the deck, the garden out front is relaxing and has the most incredible view of the Blue Mosque in the evenings. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

This hotel has an amazing view of the Blue Mosque especially at night. It also offers very good breakfast at the rooftop with a gorgeous view. However, we find that the receptionist during our stay was not as warm and welcoming considering that he was at the front desk. We stayed at another hotel in Istanbul and we can’t help but compare the excellent customer service we received from our previous hotel.
