This charming hotel was a perfect place from which to explore Sultanahmet. I loved the older charm and authentic decor. The rooftop has amazing views of both the Bosphorus Strait and the Hagia Sophia.

Can’t decide what made this stay extra special: charming and helpful staff, luxurious sheets, funky bar, rooftop terrace with view, quiet and colorful neighborhood, lots of restaurants close by, proximity to Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, historic decor? The only downers were smallish size rooms and minimal outlets

A nice enough hotel near the Bosphorus . The rooms were adequate though the a/c could have been more effective . Its on the bus route into the centre and walkable if you head up hill towards Blue Mosque

My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. The staff went above and beyond—always friendly, attentive, and eager to help. The location couldn’t be better, with all the major tourist attractions just a short walk away. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

This hotel is 10 mins walk away from the blue mosque, very convenient. The hotel is clean and rooms are nice, the breakfast buffet is simple but lovely. I would say if anyone has mobility issues then look for a hotel closer as the walking might can be steep to the tourist areas unless you’re using taxi. Otherwise the hotel is in a good location and walkable, the metro is also near the blue mosque to get to the other areas like grand bazaar / topkapi/taksim etc. metro is easy to use you can buy a metro card or use your credit card which should be like 40 lira a ride. Also I wouldn’t recommend restaurants around the hotel area as it’s very pricy and does not taste as good. The hotel itself great! And has a sea view at the back which is also a 2 minute walk.
