Unfortunately would not recommend this hotel. Located on a noisy street, rooms are not clean, and staff is not helpful. Booked a premium room with a double bed, and got stuck to a room with 3 twin beds. Also, electricity went out in the whole hotel for over 12 hours. We had to leave the hotel due to no electricity, and was asked why we were checking out early which seemed like a very obvious answer of why. Definitely do not recommend booking this hotel.

Pleasant stay with minor issues

I would like to thank the hotel staff for organizing the airport transfer — everything went smoothly and on time, which made our arrival in Istanbul much easier. However, there was an issue at check-in: we were initially given a room of a lower category than the one we had booked. Fortunately, the staff quickly resolved the situation and moved us to the correct room without any hassle. The room was clean, which we really appreciated, but the furnishings were quite dated and the space could definitely benefit from some renovation. Overall, the service was friendly and helpful, and with some updates to the rooms, this hotel has great potential.

Nice hotel near the Galata bridge and tower. Safe and quiet area with lots of restaurants and cafes around. Rooms are extra tight/it felt like all bed. Was a fine accommodation for a few nights but the size was a turn off.
