Clean place with pretty friendly staff. Perfect and new-fashioned rooms available with view to the obelisks, the AC, as for instance. Amazing location a 10-15 minute walk from a functioning mosque. Also, located in the center of downtown. Good overall experience.

Clean and fantastic place, has exceptional views of the sea. The hotel is in the central location right at the historical centre. For tea and goodies visit Grand Vezir, located close by. As for me the food is great, and they have a wide array of meals.

Delicious and great breakfast, fairly clean and ideal hotel. Cozy area, central location not far from travel links and blue mosque, and very many sights. For tea or coffee visit Grand Vezir nearby. Good sleep in a big bed, new-fashioned and perfect room. Pretty friendly and amiable staff, good stay.

The location was great, for example, a Roman triumphal column was at a moderate distance from the hotel. A bazaar and shops were right next door. Really enjoyed having free Wi-Fi and coffee in the brand-new and reasonably spacious room...

Overall very good stay during our 3 nights in Istanbul. Small hotel with really friendly staff and delightful views of the sea. Plenty of outstanding food. Excellent and amazing location, at a walking distance from a functioning mosque. Found in a cozy area just off the famous mosques, in the city center, and 2 stops from the metro mayramar, 3 stops from eminoe ferry terminal, 4 stops from galatan.
