The location and amazing view of Blue Mosque & Hagia Sofya. Friendly staff. I'm worried that we will have problem upon checking in due to our flight delayed but all is good. Even the arranged airport transfer still around when we arrived IST airport.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at your hotel, and I wanted to share some feedback from my experience to help you continue providing excellent service to your guests.
Firstly, I must commend you on the location of the hotel, which is fantastic. The breakfast offered was also very good, and I particularly enjoyed the rooftop breakfast location – it was an excellent way to start the day.
However, I did encounter a couple of issues during my stay. The family room I was given was not the same as shown in the pictures , which was a bit disappointing. Additionally, the main door of the family room was not working properly, which caused some inconvenience.
On a positive note, I appreciated the free minibar, but I believe it would be even better if it included items from multiple companies rather than everything from one company. This would offer a greater variety and enhance the overall experience.
I look forward to staying at your hotel again in the future.Margaret from New Zealand (9/10)
