9/10 Wonderful! (1,583 reviews)
The hotel is situated in a perfect location in a walking distance to all the mosques and historical buildings in the old part of the city. But the area is very crowded with tourists. The hotel is very old in need of updates badly but very clean. A good breakfast with a nice view of the Blue mosque is offered every day on the 6th floor.
