8/10 Very good

Decent hotel close to Blue Mosque and Hagi Sofia
A good choice if you want to be close to the major tourist spots in Istanbul Old Town. About 10 mins walk from Tram stop but plenty to do in walking distance. Room good size and comfortable bed. Unfortunately air con only on heat mode so room rather warm at night. Breakfast selection pretty good, although no meusli or yoghurt which was a bit surprising. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Would certainly recommend it.

Perfectly located
Great location in old town. Walking distance to major attractions. Lots of great restaurants. Hotel staff could not be more accommodating, knowledgeable or professional. Good breakfast. Great place to stay.

8/10 Very good

We prefer to stay in traditional Ottoman houses around the old city to be close to the best sites. This hotel was that quiet traditional house with few guests and excellent staff. It was not shiny, modern, and glitzy. Everything was great. The only real negative for us was that the room we stayed in looked very different in comparison to the one online during the booking. In the description it said "partial sea view" and we looked at the white wall of the neighboring house 2 feet away from our window. Some guests would also find the TV size pretty inadequate, but at the end of the day, you do not come to Istanbul to watch TV.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast options were mediocre. There were ants in the room and the bathroom conditions were poor, toilet seat unhinged, shower leaked, etc.

My boyfriend and I had a 10 day trip to 6 different cities in Turkey. Out of all the hotels we stayed at (there were 6 of them) this hotel was the best by far. The room was clean, staff helpful, great location, and excellent breakfast. I recommend sitting up on the small terrace balcony and enjoy the view of the Blue Mosque with some Efes from the convenience store across the street. One of our favorite things was that the AC was on 24/7 in our rooms which we hadn’t found at any hotel we’d stayed at. If you’re going to visit Istanbul, just stay here!!!!!!!!!!

Old fashion room, friendly stuff, quiet place and safe to stay. I would suggest to improve the breakfast menu, otherwise I recommend the hotel for your vacation.

Relaxing stay
Pleasant boutique hotel with amazing location for main tourist sites and places to eat. Room was comfortable and clean, with all expected amenities. Reception staff were helpful and arranged airport transfers to and from. Breakfast was tasty too, with stunning view of the Blue Mosque from the outdoor terrace

Cool central hotel
The location was very central to everything. Just a ten minute walk away from major sites and the metro which I appreciated. The rooms have a fun style and the terrace breakfast was always great and the views were great too.

Staff was amazing. Close to tourist sites and restaurants. Be careful of the restaurant options as some restaurants are clean, others questionable. Great experience
