"Good location in Sultanahmed, walking distance to major sites. Breakfast was excellent, great variety, good quality! We also enjoyed the rooftop terrace with beautiful sunset view and good restaurant. The people working there are also very friendly, great service! I hope they will update the rooms soon. Our room was spacious, but the bathroom very small, no space for storage. Overall I would recommend the hotel and I would stay again!"

We arrived early in the morning and were pleasantly surprised by a complimentary early check in and breakfast! Our room had a lot of space and very interesting decor. The roof top terrace, where we had an amazing breakfast buffet every morning, had a breathtaking view on the sea and a city. I would consider this hotel for our next time in Istanbul. "
