The staff is very attentive and helpful from assisting to arrange airport transport to making recommendations and reservations for restaurants. The rooms are comfortable but a little dated. The location is in a safe and busy upscale part of town within walking distance of transit.

It is an absolutely wonderful hotel to stay near a lot of shopping and restaurants . Staff is excellent and very friendly. They go out of the way to help you. Property is clean. We were two adults and two children and it suited us very very well. There are a lot of options close by for shopping and restaurants. The overall vibe is great. The tram is close by very easy to get to the touristic places. Overall, we loved this place.

We had the most wonderful stay for three nights. The place is clean, tastefully decorated, and our rooms were spacious and our beds comfortable. The hotel is across the street from Varuna Cafe, which offers a great breakfast. The concierges were super helpful. We arrived at the hotel very early and were offered an early check-in without an extra charge. The hotel recommended local places to eat, which was very helpful, and helped book a shuttle and also helped book a ferry ride. The concierges were knowledgeable and friendly. The hotel is just off the main road (Istiklal) and on Kumbaraci. Note that Kumbaraci is a very steep street; we walked down it often to catch the tram but walking back up it was a little tiring. The area is hilly so I’m not sure you could circumvent walking up hills if you are staying in the area. There is also a metro station close by but we never took the metro.

We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The accommodations were very comfortable for a group of three, however, what stands out is how helpful and kind the staff was throughout our entire stay. Fatih and MK took such great care of us; Greeted us with a smile every time no matter what time we came in or went out. They went above and beyond to give us information about the city, arrange transportation, and make sure we had whatever we could think of including a mobile wifi device for our use. We will definitely stay at this property again. 🤗
