Excellent Stay with Sea View
wonderful view spacious suite clean rooms historical sites
The restaurant has a wonderful view of the sea and mosque. I saw birds come right up to the windows. The junior suite was spacious (this was a plus). It had a balcony with a sea view. Couches in the room were great. Rooms were very clean. The hotel is close to many historical sites. Most are within walking distance, though the roads in this area are not easy. I found the wifi to be fast.
The road to the hotel is narrow. Taxi drivers had some trouble.

9/10
The restaurant offers a great sea view, especially nice during breakfast with many windows letting in natural light. A family-friendly environment is very apparent. The staff helped with bags and strollers. Tips were appreciated by the staff.
Location
8/10
The hotel's location offers convenient access to nearby museums and mosques. Most attractions are within walking distance. The grand bazaar and blue mosque are within easy reach on foot (it's a central area). its nearness to key sites is a real advantage.

Decent Stay with a Few Drawbacks
narrow road hot room
My room needed a key in the wall slot for the air conditioning. The room became very hot when I was out. The road to the hotel was also very narrow it was difficult for taxi drivers. It was not the hotel's fault but still an issue.

helpful staff ideal location excellent breakfast key slot narrow road difficult navigation
the staff were indeed friendly and very helpful.. location proved ideal with sites like hagia sophia and the blue mosque just a short walk away. breakfast offered excellent options to start each day.
my room required the door key to be inserted in the wall slot for the air conditioning to function. this meant the room would heat up again whenever i went out. the road to the hotel is narrow and can be difficult for taxi drivers to navigate.
