Bom hotel!

O hotel é confortável mas falta renovação. Os móveis estão um pouco desgastados. A localização é muito boa, pois fica bem perto do hipódromo de Istambul na praça Sultanahmet. Perto também de muitos restaurantes de comida turca. Do restaurante se tem uma vista bem bonita do mar.

早餐搭配海景/地理位置方便

因為是在舊城區，飯店門口的路不是柏油路，拖行李箱會比較麻煩一點。 飯店有配合的車子可到伊斯坦堡機場，需另外付費。早餐用餐區可以看到海景。房間不大。地理位置方便，走路就可以到達藍色清真寺，聖索菲亞大教堂，地下水宮，知名土耳其浴等地。

Très beau hôtel, très bien situé. Proche de la mosquée bleu, du grand baazar et de tout autres commerces. Personnel de la réception très très accueillant et souriant. Concernant les côtés négatifs : Chambre et douche assez petite. Vaut mieux ne pas être trop gros pour séjourner la propreté de la chambre laisse à désirer : nettoyage de la chambre que sur les parties apparentes, énorme poussière sous le lit je pense que cela fait des semaines que ça pas été nettoyé. Il y a aussi des fourmis dans la chambre et dans la salle de bain.. Au niveau du petit déjeuner, grande déception il y a peu de choix et le personnel de restauration n’est pas accueillant. Cela dit, concernant le rapport qualité-prix cela reste correct. Bien sûr on est pas dans un 5 étoiles mais je reviendrais avec plaisir.

Das Personal ist top und sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer waren nicht so wie auf dem Bild. Man hört die im Nebenzimmer reden und wir konnten 2 Nächte gar nicht schlafen weil die im Nebenzimmer extrem laut waren. Man hört auch den Verkehr draussen! Allgemein ist das Zimmer „sauber“, es wurde täglich sauber gemacht, jedoch ist sas Zimmer in einem sehr schlechten Zustand, es rieht sehr komisch, Klimaanlage funktioniert ganz schlecht. Der Boden wurde nicht ordentlich gereinigt und generell sehr alte Möbel. Ich weis nicht was genau 2011 renoviert wurde!

Hôtel superbe !! Prochain séjour dans le même hôtel, c’est sûr : propre, calme, accueillant, serviable, à l’écoute, tout près du Mahmutpaşa, Sultan Ahmet, la mosquée bleue, Aya Sofia..etc Mais s’il fallait ajouter/modifier quelque chose : rajouter des œufs brouillés et jus d’orange «pressés » au petit déjeuner.
