The location was great and fantastic, if you need to be close to a tower and a mosque. A subway station was close to the place. The breakfast was bountiful for what was on offer, with Turkish local food and Turkish coffee and omelettes prepared at the moment.

Was a brilliant base for trip. Thank you everyone for a perfectly pleasant stay for our 1 week visit in Istanbul. The location of the hotel was spectacular and best possible - relatively near Basilica Cistern. And the area was very very nice, so close to the best restaurants in Istanbul and the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia.
