Pinar from United Kingdom (9/10)
The hotel is just a hidden gem, close to all amenities, shops and restaurants. It is also close to Sultan Ahmet, Eminonu, Aya Sofya, so lots of places to travel under 10 mins walk! It is also opposite to II Sultan Abdul Hamid Han Tomb (Türbe) and Tezveren Baba Tomb (Türbe) right behind II Sultan Abdul Hamid Han Tomb. Literally right opposite!
Will be going back soon!
The workers are native Turkish which I loved they were very helpful, well-mannered and respectful.
Really loved the hotel transfer too.
Breakfast has a lot of choices!
Book it’s guys, trust me you won’t regret it, if your aim is to do more sight-seeing. 🌷Naseera from South Africa (8/10)
The location of the hotel is excellent. Walking distance to Sultanahmet mosque, and right across the tram. The rooms with balconies have the most amazing views.
The rooms are spacious, extremely clean and well maintained. Cleaning staff are quick, efficient and friendly.
The staff are professional and go out of their way to assist guests.
Airport shuttle makes it extremely convenient.
