Great Hotel !! The management went out of their way to help us feel comfortable in our stay. Lovely views of the city. Gym is a proper gym , not a fitness room. 👍 Constructive advice - the spa staff should be more attentive to the facilities to keep it organised and attend to guests. Other than that, we would happily stay there again ❤️

The staff was wonderful. Our room was large and clean with an excellent view of the Bosphorus.The AC was top notch. The spa, which includes fitness room, pool, Turkish Bath, sauna and steam room were an added bonus. The location is close to Taksim without being in the center of the crowds and noise. It is also within walking distance of Kabatas pier, where ferries to the Princes Islands and other city piers run. I wouldn't even consider staying at any other Istanbul hotel.

Great location, great price, great view!

The hotel is in a great location close to Taksim Square with shopping and dining etc, and a short walk to the ferry if needed. The hotel was clean, well staffed and comfortable. Our double bed was separated to twin beds (friends in same room) late in the evening on arrival, breakfast was good. The hotel also has valet underground parking.

2 room’s Bosphorus view and honeymoon suite

I had booked 2 rooms with Bosphorus view and a balcony one of these rooms was a honeymoon suite. The view is majestic and seeing the sunset was a major sight to my visit.The rooms looked as the pictures so I was happy about that. They were very clean and spacious. The honeymoon suite comes with a capsule coffee machine and a jet path; I had booked this for my anniversary but they were charging a lot to add flowers on the bed; would have appreciated it if they were complementary considering the price we and the occasion so I didn’t go for that. The hotel location was not that great for car drivers. It was on a hill and a highway so it will be a problem parking there. However, the rooms were very quite and on the other side of the road so we can’t hear any noises. The evening staff were friendly and nice. As I loved the room I asked if I could extend and they told me it is available and you can book online or come in reception. So I booked online.However the morning staff was very rude and wanted to change one of the rooms to lower floor I told him that I had a chat with the evening staff and told me it was available he said it is available but someone wants to extend and asked for that room. He didn’t make sense but eventually we stayed in the same room after argument. He even made me pay more saying I paid for one person even though it stated 2 people capacity. I regretted extending Overall, the breakfast is magnificent and rooms are amazing but the spa is not great.
