A mini bar fridge, climate control, and an iron inside the standard queen room were handy. Central location near to Aya Sofia Topkapi palace, Blue Mosque and, T1tram, the Blue Mosque, Hajia Sophia Church, and Topkapi Palace, and many cafes and restaurants, it was in a historic area. There was cafe Cafe Rumist, that I found within 5 minutes' walk of the hotel.

I came here for 5 nights and had a really good stay. Fantastic small hotel, I enjoyed its family ambiance. The location was great, you can visit an Eastern Orthodox church by walking. Besides, I were near restaurants and bars. The family room was big and outstanding.
Their staff were very unhelpful.

Pleasant property with accommodating employees who helped us check in late in the night and called a taxi for us after check-out. Fine breakfast with a fabulous view and ample juice, for example, marvellous location.

Clean and wonderful place with amazingly nice staff who helped us check in late in the night and called a taxi for us after check-out. Excellent food selection. Marvellous location walking distance to restaurants and bars. Walking distance to tourist spots like a palace and a tower in Old City Sultanahmet district.

The restaurant was wonderful with a panoramic view of Hagia Sophia and the Bosphorus, I tried appetising dishes. The facilities such as a seating area and a mini-bar were available. The location was top and best possible - just 5 minutes' walk from an enormous palace. There were a shopping centre and a bazaar around the hotel.

Fantastic and exceptionally clean place to stay in, it has extremely friendly staff who helped us check in late in the night and called a taxi for us after check-out. Plus, the location is great, minutes from a byzantine basilica museum. We have stayed in the family queen room with ac.
Their breakfast is poor, can be much better.

My stay was perfectly pleasant for 6 nights. I really enjoyed the exceptionally comfortable bed and the standard queen room. The staff were accommodating and offered guidance. The location itself was marvellous, not very far from a Holy mosque. Furthermore, the area was historic. The restaurant was great for breakfast and for every budget.
