I had a real good experience here, everything was amazing, the location was ideal really close to all the main attractions, the metro station and Gulhane Park and the beautiful park with nesting storks in the trees. Stayed for 7 nights, the staff was well-trained during all this time.

The staff was wonderfully helpful, the breakfast was sumptuous, everything was very good. There were an electric kettle, a mini-fridge-bar, and climate control in the room, appreciated that. It had panoramic views of city. This hotel was set in a super central area very close to the stream of tourists or the sound of tram passing, and Gülhane park and Aja Sofia.

The venue was wonderful, I loved the location just off the Golden Horn, and city views. Everything was excellent as expected, nonetheless the bathroom was a bit small. The hotel was in the super central setting close to all the attractions.
