Perfect place: very central next to the hubs of the tramway, walking distance from the Blue Mosque and Haghia Sofia, the bazar and the cisterns and everything important in Istanbul. The staff is amazingly helpful and our room, very comfortable and spacious had a great view on the Bosphorus. Highly recommended hotel.

Overall a good boutique hotel

Overall this is a good boutique hotel in an excellent location. Very near to the ferries and the tram line. The staff were lovely and very helpful. They always ask if everything is ok and will do little jobs like printing stuff off and arranging taxis etc. my only two criticisms of this hotel is that they do not make it clear in their description of the hotel that some of the rooms have the prayer tower literally outside the bedroom window and they are very loud at 6 am! My other criticism is that the bathroom tiles are treacherous when wet both inside and outside the shower and there is no handrail. If you were frail you could easily fall and break something.

This hotel is very conveniently located. The room was tastefully furnished and comfortable. The employees are all very friendly and helpful. The hotel and its lobby are compact, so there is not a large common area for hanging out. We tried the rooftop restaurant for dinner on our arrival but found the food to be less appealing than at the several other restaurants we visited in Istanbul.

Wonderful that they take such care of me from the time I’m at the airport to the shuttle to the hotel to the gentleman meeting my shuttle on the street and walking me and my suitcases to the lobby for check in, then up to my room to show me all of the features and get my luggage stashed. Incredibly thoughtful care!

Clean, convenient location to everything. Staff was excellent. Would have been nice to have the option for wine or beer on the rooftop. We didn’t utilize this at all because of that and it is a nice rooftop. There is undeveloped property right beside the hotel that hopefully gets developed soon as it is an eyesore to such a nice area. Not the hotels fault, and I would still stay here again.

The hotel is in a very strategic location, close to the Galata Bridge, and close to all transport links (ferry, tram and bus). The staff were super friendly and accommodating - always smiling and offering to help make our trip memorable. The room was very clean, spacious and modern with all the amenities that we needed. The breakfast was very generous and there was a lovely view from the terrace. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The hotel is centrally located with beautiful view of the Bosphorus. Quality of service by employers is outstanding. It is kind of inconvenient that there is a construction site right in front of the hotel which seems to be suspended due to archeological discoveries, limiting access by car and creating confusion among taxi cab drivers. It is not the fault of the hotel but it poses logistical challenges which are compensated by the amazing view of the Bosphorus.
