Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were not too large but always kept clean and ordered, suitable for non-smokers, with no balconies, and lacked a coffee set in the room. On the bright side, the rooms offered had 3 single beds, making it convenient for small groups.
Staying at the hotel was a great experience overall. The room was very clean and well-located just above the restaurant, which was a nice touch. The service was good, although not overly friendly. The location was incredibly convenient for exploring Istanbul, but the dining experience was a bit lacking.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the breakfast served was tasty. The staff was polite and always ready to assist. However, the location was not ideal, being close to a bustling shopping area, but it was convenient for exploring the Old Town. The dining experience was slightly above average, offering a decent variety of dishes.
I stayed at this hotel just one floor above the restaurant, and overall, it was a good experience. The rooms were excellent, clean, with good air conditioning, a nice shower, and enough space. The service was fairly cooperative, although there was an instance where one staff member was extremely rude. The location was excellent for transportation and avoiding noise from the main road. While the dining options were varied, they didn't reach a high level of quality. The facilities were nice, although slightly above average.
The hotel is a good option for a stay in the city, offering clean rooms and helpful service. The location is convenient for exploring key attractions, but there are issues with smoke in some areas. The dining experience, while basic, offers a decent selection. Overall, a decent value for the money.
