  • Omer from United States (1/10)

    The location was decent as it was in close proximity of the major attractions.
    Unlike every other hotel I have stayed at in Istanbul over the last 5+ years (4 visits) this hotel did not offer free breakfasts. Paid breakfast was way over priced as we quickly learned from comparing prices even in the touristy areas in the Sultanahmet area – hindsight is 20/20 as they say, we were extremely lucky not to have purchased breakfast at 15 Euros/person, as it would have been the same poor quality as everything else in the hotel were!
