Enjoyed our stay here and did not want to leave there. The venue was fairly clean and the staff were extremely friendly and amicable. Its location around 10-15 minutes walk from Republic Monument was marvellous and perfect. Moreover, it's near excellent restaurants, shops and bars as well as nightlife.
Nothing not too like.

The room was well furnished and had a safe, a sofa bed, and central heating. Garden view was an unexpected bonus. This hotel was set in a very central area really close to the famous Taksim Square and Beyoglu Tuenel train station and excellent restaurants, shops and bars in Istiklal Avenue. Overall the service was great.

The hotel's setting a few steps away from everything we wanted to explore, like taksim square. It is close to the airport.
