Exceptionally clean place & attentive and well-trained staff that responds very well to every request. Elegant apartment with a large balcony, a fantastic view plus the terasse all around. Fabulous food at breakfast served in the restaurant. Easy to get to, best possible location very close to Zorlu shopping center and the most modern and serviced commercial areas in the entire city. A nicely decorated and top-class hotel, my first choice in Istanbul.
