The hotel is modern and housed in a very pleasant building. Make sure you stay in the standard family room on the fifth level. The best location in general, attentive and qualified staff at reception desk. What's more, it's at a moderate distance from the heart of the city.

The hotel was in a the best location near to as many Istanbul sights as possible, and Aya Sofya. We had goodies and coffee at Cafe Noir, it was located just a walking distance from the venue. The breakfast offered coffee, bread, and eggs, was varied and on omelet.

An individual safe, an air conditioning, and a mini-bar available in the standard triple room. The best location in Istanbul very close to blue mosque, grand bazaar and very close to Laleli Tram Station, and the tram.

That was well priced hotel set in safe area, next to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Bazaar, banks, airport, and a VERY GOOD restaurant Kosebasi. The staff was willing to help, and fulfilled extra services. Standard room on the fifth level accommodated us perfectly. The breakfast with decent meal, cheese, nice taste was rich and large, had so much to choose from. The best location a short walk from Constantine Art Gallery, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

The location was excellent and comfortable, next to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Bazaar, banks, airport, all the old city sites and thanks Darkhill.

We visited sultanahmet district that was so close to the hotel. We strongly recommend the venue to friends as its location was VERY GOOD. Just a 20-minute walk to Kumkapi train station. We ate at Sehri Saray, which is only 600 ft away, it suited our needs.
