Had a wonderful stay in this hotel. Location is perfect. The staff was extremely accommodating. We had a very early departure and they helped us with breakfast and ensuring we met our taxi. Hotel is clean and walking distance to the best attractions and public transportation.

The great reviews this lovely small hotel receives are totally justified. The warm, friendly welcome, the efficient service, the lovely rooftop terrace for the comprehensive breakfast make this the perfect city hotel, with great views of the city. The experience is so different from the impersonal, unwelcoming large hotels in most cities. From beginning to end this hotel provided us... More

The location of this hotel is absolutely fantastic. You are a short (5 min) picturesque / restaurant lined walk away from the Blue Mosque. The breakfast is provided on the rooftop and is more than enough to keep you going throughout the day. The rooms are quite small and there was no iron (a personal gripe) but I think it... More

Just back from Istanbul and a 4 night 5 day stay at this hotel. I am not surprised it gets such good reviews. I can honestly say it was a lovely experience. All of the staff are lovely, friendly, helpful people. Somehow (probably the cards in the room) the staff found out is was my partner's birthday and arranged a... More

I am delighted to recommend this hotel. The rooms were spotless, well-decorated and everything worked. Their shuttle picked us up at the airport - the was a charge but it was reasonable and we didn't have to worry about the driver finding the hotel or overcharging us. Upon arrival, after a drink and a sweet, we were informed that our... More

I can recommand this hotel to every one. It is very well situated to visit all the importants sites (The blue Mosquée, Hagia Sophia, Topkape Palace, etc...). The staff is perfect, helpful and very polite. As I asked for a twin bedroom (the rooms have only double beds), they gave me a triple beds room on the first floor without... More

I was so impressed with this hotel; with its staff, its location in Sultanahmet, the unexpected room upgrade (fantastic!) and the atmosphere in general. The staff kept saying to me that it was my "home" away from home & it certainly felt like it! Didn't have the opportunity to stay long this time but certainly will when I'm next in... More

As most reviewers have said it is a great hotel within walking distance of the main sites. The rooms are spotless, the air conditioning works, the staff is friendly and the breakfast is good. It is the added touches, such as the welcome drink and sweet, the fruit basket and wine, that make this hotel a fabulous place to stay.... More

Great hotel! Location, rooms, and service are first rate. Perfect. I travel extensively - and this hotel is my favorite - especially, because of the charming, competent, and always helpful Hava. Truely, a wonderful women.
