This is our second time staying in this hotel. We loved our first stay. So, we came back. It was great again! Our favorites are the location, breakfast and staff. They are very polite and helpful. It’s a lovely little place with an amazing breakfast view towards the sea. I suggest it to anyone that wants to enjoy the heart of Istanbul, Sulthanahmet.

An excellent safe location to visit all the attractions. Bed is a bit stiff, pillows are harder, but it is very clean and has definite Turkish charm. I would stay again. Tasty breakfast.

A pleasant hotel in the Old Town, with comfortable rooms and daily housekeeping. The breakfast is fairly simple but adequate, and the staff is generally friendly. However, there were significant issues during the stay. Due to renovation work nearby, there was no electricity for an entire night, leaving all our devices uncharged. I was moved to another room, but the power outages continued intermittently throughout the following day. When I contacted the hotel, I was told that this was quite common for hotels in Istanbul, which did not match my previous experiences at other hotels in the city. After expressing my dissatisfaction, the only gesture offered was a free lunch at a nearby café. Considering that I had booked three rooms and was traveling with my whole family, I expected a more attentive response and some form of proper compensation. Instead, the issue was downplayed, which felt inadequate and disappointing.

Excellent location, helpful and professional staff, exceptional breakfasts. The bathroom could use attention and an update--otherwise highly recommend for proximity to the Basilica Cistern, Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Cagaloglu Hamami... and more. Just minutes away. It was my first visit to Istanbul. Traveling solo. Perfect spot.

I strongly recommend this hotel for either a couple or a family trip. Nice and clean; the breakfast was included in my reservation with variety of Turkish dishes. Breakfast is served on the top roof with nice view. The staff at the reception as well as at the restaurant were very friendly. We spent 5 gorgeous nights and enjoyed our trip.
