- Very well decorated in a special way - Very good breakfast - 24/7 lobby - For turkish circumstances everything worked, but as usual there were some details not right, like the tv that is not level or some hooks for towels that were not correct mounted

Between the rooms one could not hear anything, but between room and the corridor the isolation was so bad, that I multiple times woke up because of that.

Great location close to restaurants and shops and only a short 5-10 minute walk to Hagia Sophia in one direction, Grand Bazaar in another and Galata Bridge in another. Hotel is beautifully decorated with a great shower and comfortable bed. The staff were fantastic - especially at breakfast bringing me delicious gluten free bread and pastries (huge thanks to the lovely chef!) I also had a Turkish Hammam in the spa downstairs and we dined in the adjacent restaurant one evening as well. All great!

Nothing!

Loved the beds so comfortable , very very helpful staff in reception all of them in various roles ...very caring and helpful .Gulson on guest relations and Ahmet . Breakfast choice so good ...everywhere clean ..Hamam

Breakfast finished at 11 am fantastic ....but one or two staff wanted you to hurry put of area when you were just relaxing over your last tea and mouthful ......must allow you to vacate in a reasonable time (not wanting more food) just digesting and talking leisurely . The rooftop restaurant is excellent food but very dimly lit needs new colour scheme ,great staff

Our room was amazing. Very big. Very Turkish. Lovely jacuzzi bath. The hotel situated approx 10 mins from the key mosques, basilica cistern and not far from the grand bazaar and bustling river area by the Galata bridge. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice plus things to order, like omelette, pancakes, etc. Front desk was really helpful with directions and sorting out taxi to the airport. They have a spa area but we did not have time to use it. We loved our time here.

The bed was a bit hard for our liking, but we know this is a personal taste thing.

We had a suite, which was breathtaking. It was roomy. Excellent comfortable bed

Taxi can't pull up in front of hotel. You have to walk down a cobbled road.

We loved everything about this property. The room was lovely, it was quiet at night. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. The property is right in the centre of the major tourist sites but what also makes it special is its amenities. The rooftop restaurant has views of the Hagia Sophia and the Bosphorus, and the food was excellent. The breakfast also remarkable and generous. It includes a large and hot cold buffet with different kinds of cheese, meat, fruit and pastries. From 2-4 there is a complimentary tea which we highly recommend, a perfect way to unwind after running around. The spa has a really nice pool and workout area, sauna, and a Hammam. You can get a massage, but we highly recommend the Hammam, it is wonderful and the same cost as the massage. Finally, the staff is very knowledgeable about the city and extremely helpful. We had a wonderful week here and I would like to thank the hotel.

I was a bit worried that all the glowing reviews were too good to be true, but indeed the hotel was great. Breakfast had a large selection and was served in the Olive restaurant on the top floor with a great view of the city. The staff at reception were very helpful. The location was great, within walking distance of all central attractions but also near a tram stop if you don’t feel like walking. The rooms were as they appear in the photos, decorated in a local style, a bit tired, but it blended into the old charm of the place.

We ordered connecting rooms but this was not available on our first night. One of the rooms was upgraded to a larger corner room instead so this made up for it. But was a little annoying to keep on having to walk through the corridor to check on kids. We did not realise we needed swimming caps for the pool, otherwise we would have bought our own. They are available for purchase in spa area.

Stayed 3 nights..Breakfast excellent and worth it, all staff extremely kind and accommodating, close to all the sites, quiet at night, free afternoon tea and goodies. Room was clean and welcoming (and non smoking….a plus in Istanbul) Istanbul is magical and fascinating. It is also crowded (popular) and for us from the US, we are not accustomed to the air pollution and especially the public smoking everywhere. Our room was a wonderful refuge from the hustle and bustle to give us the rest needed to enjoy the next day.,

My only demerit was the dark dingy halls but don’t worry, the rooms are clean and comfy!

We only stayed there for 1 night before heading out to other cities but we were very impressed. - Early check-in: Our international flight arrived at 6 am and they gave us early check-in so we can rest and refresh from long flight before our sightseeing begins. They said it's not usually guaranteed but they will try to accommodate it if it's available. - Room : Although a bit small to fit 2 luggages, room is actually very comfortable. And the bed, so comfy and we rested very well in it after our long flight and full day of activities. The balcony opens out to get fresh air is good. - Location : So easy to get to and from any where in Sultana Ahmet by walking in a short time, but not too busy or touristy neighborhood. It has a lot of restaurant options around there. - Breakfast : Quality ingredients and fresh. The quality really surprises and delights us. - Facilities: In-door heated swimming pool is nice and foc. But we didn't have chance to try as we only stay for a night. Hotel has rooftop restaurant, and we had dinner there. It offers the nice view of Hagia Sofia and the food is very good !!

- apart from room size ( which is expected when booking), everything else works wonder !!

Fantastic location, short walk to the Blue Mosque, grand Bazaar or Spice Market. Tram stop around the corner and handy restaurants outside. Rooms exactly as pictured, comfortable, quiet and good air-conditioning, Very friendly welcome from helpful reception staff. They couldn't have been more helpful in planning our stay. Great buffet breakfast in roof top restaurant. They also provide a lovely afternoon tea, which is a nice break between morning and evening exploring.

At first the bed seemed a bit soft but they put a new topper on and it was very comfortable.
