Excellent Stay in Prime Location

prime location breakfast selection helpful staff great value

The location allowed easy walks to the Grand Bazaar, Blue Mosque, and Hagia Sophia. Numerous restaurants were very close to the premises. The breakfast buffet offered a superb selection. I found great value for the money, and the staff was helpful.

The balcony was smaller than expected, not enough for even two people to comfortably stand.

Dining

9/10

The breakfast room was beautiful, and it offered yogurt and marmalades. Coffee and cappuccino came from a self-service machine. There were no ingredient lists available for the pastries.

Rooms

9/10

My room was warm and appointed well with working appliances. A comfortable mattress supported a good night's sleep. The room included amenities, and everything was clean. Daily cleaning refreshed each room.

Good location, some issues

key attractions plentiful breakfast friendly staff street noise smaller bed poor isolation

The location worked well for access to key attractions. I found the breakfast to be plentiful. The staff seemed very hospitable and friendly. They answered my queries quickly.

The room I booked had a window that did not close completely. I could hear street noise. I informed the hotel and they changed my room. The new room was smaller with a smaller bed and no balcony. The indoor sound isolation was not good.
