    Great value. Perfect location, just a short walk to major attractions and public transportation. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are small but cozy. The breakfast is delicious with a wide variety of options.

    Only a few minor issues with the elevator outage and lack of hot water for a day.

    The staff were exceptional, friendly, and attentive. The location is superb, right on the Hippodrome, with easy access to attractions. The rooms are comfortable, well-decorated, and clean. The breakfast on the rooftop terrace is beautiful and delicious. The hotel has a public cafe/restaurant/bar on the ground floor, which is a bonus.

    Couldn't fault.

    This hotel is in an ideal location, right in the heart of the historic district of Sultanahmet. It is just a short walk to the Sultanahmet Tram stop, making it convenient to explore other parts of the city. The rooms are comfortable with quality furnishings, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast served on the top floor has amazing views of the nearby attractions, such as the Blue Mosque and Aye Sophia. Additionally, guests receive a 15% discount on meals at the hotel's restaurant.

    One minor issue mentioned by a guest was not being able to manage the AC, but it was their own fault for not asking about it.

    This hotel is in the perfect location for exploring the main sights of the city. It is just a few minutes walk from the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, and Topkapi Palace. You can easily walk to all the historical sites in the Sultanahmet area. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with everything you need including air conditioning and a mini-fridge. The en-suite shower rooms are modern and well-maintained. The breakfast room on the top floor offers breathtaking views of the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus. The buffet breakfast has a wide variety of options and is regularly replenished.

    One negative aspect is that the room size may be a bit small, but they still provide all the necessary facilities and amenities.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. Firstly, the location was unbeatable - right in the heart of the tourist district, just opposite the Blue Mosque and the Hippodrome. It was so convenient to explore all the major sightseeing spots. Secondly, the rooms were lovely, with all the usual comforts and a stunning view of the Blue Mosque. Lastly, the breakfast served on the terrace was a highlight, with fresh fruit, yogurt, honey, a variety of excellent bread. Plus, the view from the terrace was absolutely amazing.

    Everything was perfect, nothing to improve.

    The location of the hotel was amazing, right in the heart of the city and close to many attractions. The staff were also very friendly and helpful, making me feel at home during my stay. The best part was the delicious breakfast with a stunning view of the city.

    There was no coffee facility in the rooms, which was a bit inconvenient. Additionally, as a traveler from outside Europe, I had trouble finding electrical sockets that were compatible with my devices.
