The hotel was cozy and comfortable, but the rooms were smaller than expected and filled up with cigarette smoke. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the staff at the lobby and rooftop. The location was great, just a short walk to attractions like the Blue Mosque. The dining options had a good range of food but lacked some freshness in certain items.

I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, stylishly decorated, and had extremely comfortable beds, making it perfect for our family. However, the price was a bit on the higher side, and the breakfast and view were just average. The service was excellent, with the staff being kind, helpful, and efficient. The location couldn't have been better, being only a short walk away from major attractions. The dining options were decent, but some improvements could be made. Overall, a great experience with some minor drawbacks.

Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms provided a unique view of the colorful narrow streets of old Istanbul, though some facing buildings were not pleasant. The service was attentive and friendly, offering valuable information about the city sights. The location was ideal, surrounded by attractions and boutique shops, with a stunning view of the sea. While the dining experience was satisfactory, the facilities met our basic needs.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel! The room had a stunning view of the Sea of Marmara from the Sultan Ahmet mosque, located on the 5th floor where I could admire the sea of Marmara with the entrance to the Bosphorus Strait. The room was spacious, clean, and offered a good view of the sea. The service was exceptionally friendly and helpful; the staff even went out of their way to provide me with their own Istanbul pass with credit, making my stay hassle-free. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, allowing me to easily visit all the top tourist attractions. The dining experience was pleasant, especially on the rooftop with great views. Overall, a great value for money experience!
