This is a very nice comfortable, small hotel in a great position, just by the blue mosque. Rooms have big comfortable beds, good bathrooms and are well soundproofed, esp given how close to the road and tourist areas the hotel is. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Evening boat cruise with dinner booked with the hotel was very good.

We were a bit disappointed that the breakfast room upstairs with great views, which we had seen in photos and read about in reviews, was closed for repairs. Buffet breakfast is offered on the ground floor instead .

Perfect localisation very close to Blue Mosque in Sultanahmed neighborhood. The room was very clean and very comfortable for my family (4 family members). The reception was always helpful in everything we have asked during the trip

For being so closed to the mosques, prayers can be heard in the middle of the nights and can wake you up

Its location is perfect for a short stay. Most of the attractions are nearby, and commuting is easy because of the hotel's location. I stayed there for five nights; it is perfect. The room is small but has everything you need for the stay and a good night's sleep. The internet is sometimes very slow. The staff is very helpful and there to help. Breakfast is good. I recommend this hotel for someone who do not require luxury only for the night as a tourist you spend all you day outside and come for the rest so no point having luxury expensive hotel. All transport and restaurants and shopping nearby. And a very good staff

We are really happy with our recent stay in this hotel. The location is just perfect, a minute walk from the Blue Mosque and all the other attractions. It is a small 3 stars, but a nice clean hotel which has some amazing staff working there. We are very pleased with the service provided by Metin and his team including staff members working at the restaurant. The hotel arranged the airport transfer with a reasonable price and we were allowed to check in early, around 9 am without any charges. We are also pleased with the price, breakfast was included though the options were a bit limited but it didn’t bother us as we stayed there for 3 nights. Overall, we are pleased with our stay and will definitely use this hotel again if we go back to Istanbul. Thank you Metin and Everyone.

It was a great stay, nothing to add.

A small, cozy hotel in a historic building in a great location, a stone's throw from the Hippodrome, Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Small but very tastefully decorated rooms with stylish wooden furniture, a large, extremely comfortable bed, tasteful matching curtains and a charming Turkish kilim on a wooden parquet floor. Although the hotel is located on a small but busy street, the windows are very soundproof. The four-story building is equipped with an elevator, and there is a rooftop bar with large windows from which there is a beautiful view of the Marmara Sea, the Sultanahmet districts and both famous mosques, as well as sunrises and sunsets. On the ground floor there is a bar and a restaurant where breakfast is served. These breakfasts will surely satisfy everyone, and certainly lovers of Turkish cuisine, like me. For me, it's not a disadvantage, but for a full description, I have to mention that every historic building has its disadvantages, so... thin walls may bother someone, but not me, because after a day of exploring the city, I fell asleep like a baby in this comfortable bed. There is also a reception on the ground floor, where you will always find help and answers to all your questions about Istanbul... thank you to all the hotel staff, especially Metin and Erhan, for their professional service and help. If I ever return to Istanbul, I will definitely stay here again, and I will certainly recommend this hotel to others.

The location to key sites is fantastic . It's an easy walk day and at night with easy access to the tram. Felt very comfortable at night. Breakfast was included and it was great that this included a range of options. Front desk staff were very helpful and friendly and were keen to make our stay in Istanbul enjoyable.

There were no major concerns and really, the facilities were fine. Our shower could have been a little cleaner looking but otherwise not a deal breaker.

Its is perfect location for families especially with young children or elderly. It is on the door step of the blue mosque (2 minutes walk) /Haga sophia/Topkapi palace and many more. We had the luxury of the beautiful blue mosque view from our rooms. The staff were extremely attentive and Ersel and Hasan the reception staff were outstanding. They were informative and very welcoming each time. There was a variety of breakfast options and sweet treats. Every morning the cleaning staff would clean the room and bathroom leaving it spotless and fresh. We used the Iron and AC everyday. It was an amazing city break and I would definitely come back again very soon. Fell in love with istanbul and their hospitality.

We stayed two nights before heading to the beach. Nice small hotel very close to The Blue Mosque, Basilica, Hagia Sofia and a short walk to the Grand Bazaar. Very well located for cultural tourism but the local restaurants are very very touristy and average quality. Worth venturing further over to the new town side of the river for higher quality food, bars and lounges etc. Breakfast included was adequate and fair given the reasonable price of the hotel. Ideal for a short break.
