Reviews

  • Albana from Albania (9/10)

    Everything was perfect, best experience, wonderful people

  • Rūta from Lithuania (7/10)

    The location of the hotel is convenient, and the staff was friendly, but unfortunately, the cleanliness of the room left much to be desired. There were noticeable issues with tidiness, which affected the overall comfort of our stay. With more attention to cleaning and maintenance, this place could be much better.

  • Anastasia from Hungary (7/10)

  • Yunzhi from China (9/10)

    I enjoyed views of Marmara from the balcony. The breakfast was excellent, and it was lovely to share the experience with some friendly cats and seagulls while taking in the beautiful scenery.

  • Anna from United States (9/10)

    The breakfast is varied, that’s why I chose this hotel 😀

  • Hani from Iraq (9/10)

    The location, staff, and breakfast is amazing.

  • Jacob from Denmark (9/10)

    The staff: Very good, and very good service, from the counter to the floor management, to the staff when getting breakfast, and last but not least, the cleaning. Really respectful and serviceminded people.
    The stay: Rooms are as you see on pictures and the stay was very pleasent. The Breakfast on the rooftop was a big plus – a good and calm way to start you day.
    The placement of the hotel: Central placement, 18 minute walk to the grand bazar, and close to shopping and restaurants. If you like the puls of the city, it's a plus. And even though it's in the middle of the city, the streets are quiet in the evening.
