I highly recommend this hotel that is in the city center, close to all the important places, hotel rooms are large, clean and the staff very nice and friendly, good breakfast and free internet at the hotel, great for business travelers.

We stayed here for 4 nights whilst exploring Istanbul. We were very impressed, considering the price we paid. The room was clean and comfortable, plenty for space for what we needed and the pleasant addition of breakfast. We were a little apprehensive that it would be noisy after reading other reviews but we were very pleasantly surprised. The room was quiet and very dark. Next doors shower was rather noisy when used late at night but could put up with that. We were able to walk to everywhere we wanted to visit and it was close enough to pop back during the day to have a rest and get changed. No view out of the window, back wall of house behind but not a major problem.

My mom and I staying here in April 2013 and were pleased with our stay. Our room was on the 3rd floor (I definitely recommend staying from the 3rd floor up because of the noise) and was a good size. The beds were really comfortable and we were both very happy in our room! HOWEVER, as the previous reviewer said a group of teenage school children came to stay at the hotel and kept us up until late on several occasions. I phoned reception and explained to them that I felt like I was in a hostel because of all the noise. The reception did call the children and ask them to keep quiet (as I could hear the ringing coming from their rooms, yes that is how thin the walls must be). The children were out of control, running around, screaming, banging doors. Twice I got up myself and asked them to please keep quiet - I'm a very light sleeper and it really isn't fun to be on holiday when you have hardly had any sleep. I would like to recommend to the hotel that if they do have school children staying at the hotel then perhaps they should put them all on one or two floors to prevent them from waking up other guests at the hotel! Then they can spend all night and day screaming along the corridors and not bothering the guests. The walls in this hotel seem to be quite thin because we could also hear everything that the other guests were doing, i.e. watching TV or showering. We weren't too bothered about that, but if you like your peace and quiet then it may bother you. The breakfast was okay, nothing spectacular. The location of the hotel is good, it's on Piyer Lotti street which is right near to the Grand Bazaar (about 5-10 minutes walk) and also within walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Basilica Cistern & Topkapi Palace. Towards the end of our stay we also found that there was an amazing Haman (Turkish Bath) on the road of the hotel too, we went there and had an amazing time. It was A LOT cheaper than the other more touristy ones and a lot less crowded. The hotel staff were good, not very friendly though. The other thing I have to say is that the computer they seem to have downstairs does not work properly (if at all), so if you choose this hotel based on the fact that it has a computer please think again. Rather bring your own laptop or stay somewhere else. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here and would stay here again.

Very central budget hotel.good clean bathroom,basic clean room DO NOT stay on the first floor above the reception area. There was a football match on TV and several residents were watching it in reception. Around 10 .30 pm we asked staff if they could ask them to be a little more quiet as they were shouting and cheering VERY loudly. He refused and when I went down he was watching it himself. The game and noise continued until about 11.30. It sounded like they were in our room. In fact you can hear everything from the other rooms,like people using the toilets,opening doors etc,but we could tolerate that. Two nights previously,a class of teenage school kids arrived. We expected them to be excited and to make some noise,but they were shouting out of the windows,banging on each others doors,running round the corridors. We phoned reception and they refused to ask them to be quiet. At 2am we knocked their doors ourselves and then they were quiet. Staff said on both occasions that it was ok for residents to make a lot of noise. They wouldn't consider us at all and the 'customer care' manager was rude. Breakfast is very basic and the area is very run down but seemed safe as long as you look out for broken slabs and pot holes.

It was so wonderful to have a chance to visit turkey last October 2012 and be golden crown guest. You are always such gracious hosts. We appreciated being able to stay in your lovely cosy room, and we greatly enjoyed our breakfast which prepared for us.Your country is absolutely beautiful, and there are so many fun and interesting spots the average tourist would never find on their own. It was exciting to see and experience a bit of how the locals live and play. We'd love to reciprocate your kindness! Thank you again for everything.special thanks again to Demet Sales & Marketing / Reservation Manager for her nice and beautiful attitude and Rageb as well as Nilgun Ozturkmen the hotel GM.Mohamed EL Adly
