"This is an excellent hotel, the service was incredible. This hotel is located in walking distance of everything. The staff was a pleasure to be around."
"Stayed in December
Staff are excellent and lean over backwards to help.
Accommodation I was everything required and was qyiet even though it’s a busy location with lots of good bars and restaurants to choose from.
Location is fantastic for all the big tourist sites, no more than 15 minutes even for pier for Bosporus cruises or the Topkapi palace.
Would be my first choice when I return to Istanbul."
"Very small property, a few blocks from the major sites in Sultanhet. Loved it!
Gracious staff. Breakfasts were amazing- they covered my table for 4 with a wide variety breakfast foods.
Well priced, clean, safe, great location - this hits all of my requirements."
"Great hotel and staff!
The room has a great location, with 10% discount at the restaurant and free bottles of water, tea, coffee and baclava is definitely a plus on the staying.
Totally recommend!"

"Outstanding and luxurious property with local art and decor that elevated our experience. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The hotel includes breakfast with breathtaking views, luxury car transportation to local attractions such as Hagia Sophia, and a relaxing spa. The location was superb, and I can’t imagine going back and staying somewhere else. Excellent option for a family with kids "
