Everything was great, especially the hotel's location and the attitude of the hotel staff. Only during our stay, they were installing sensors and fire alarm buttons, which was annoying due to the sound of the workers' drills (maybe this will have stopped during your stay), but since the hotel's location was great, I wasn't bothered by the noise pollution at all.

Staff is unique! Excellent attention. Totally supportive. Since breakfast, attention from Mine. Ozgur at the reception area who guides and provide support in a great manner. Cleaning is excellent! The hotel is close to transportation and very good places to eat. Also, the hotel is close to Basilic cistern, Hagya Sophia and Blue Mosque. I feel as at home with all attention from staff. Definitely I will be back to this hotel. I am very thankful to all! !!🫶💕❤️

Extremely small room, noisy, not clean enough, very little facilities for the price you pay, Shower was blocked, fridge did not work for our whole stay, we complaint and it was not resolved, very basic breakfast, just one type of squash in breakfast and no juice, just whole fruits in the counter and one small plate of cut oranges with no selection at all. Will not recommend it for the money you pay. the only good thing was the location and a staff member at reception EMRF was very hellpful and polite.

Nice hotel Friendly staff Only down side to this hotel is the location I thought rooms were sound proof but the balcony doors were not sealed they seemed a bit old and not fitted, if it was maybe the noise wouldn’t have been so bad. It was in the heart of the busy tourist area, when booking I thought we were a bit far but it was still busy area. traffic noise, car horns blaring, this would go on until early hours and then people going in and out of rooms slamming doors. I did not sleep for more than 3 hours a night, which were disturbed by some sort of noise on my 4 night stay. The hotel itself is beautiful and staff are great. For guest looking for a peaceful night sleep need to be away from the blue mosque or Sofia by at least a mile or so. Otherwise no complaints with the hotel.
