Beautiful ornate boutique hotel in a great location to the Karakoy Tram, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, and Topkapi Palace, Galata Tower. Elegant decor, comfortable, thoughtful amenities, stunning view from our room. The hotel provided us with old world charm and modern comfort and we loved coming back to our room at the end of our adventurous days. We very much enjoyed our stay.
