Very cute and elegant hotel. Staff was truly wonderful. Views were incredible. The only thing is the water pressure was very low. I think they fixed it but not sure.
Great place to stay for location. Walking distance to everything. Loved the location. The hotel is an older building it is not renovated but it is maintained well. Everything was clean.

Excellent. The staff was very attentive and gave excellent service.
Fantastic hotel, very helpful and friendly staff, ideal location for visitors, very short walk to the cistern, blue mosque etc. very handy for tram stop for going further away too.
Superb views from the hotel restaurant although it is a bit pricey to eat there, even for Istanbul prices. Apart from that it really is a superb hotel in a fantastic location!
In centre of the city, everything walkable and 5 mins to tram stop
Panoramic restaurant , great views and food. All staff friendly and helpful, especially Necati.Roons are olderstyle but bed is comfy
Location is perfect. Staff very friendly and helpful.Rooftop restaurant excellent.
Hotel is a little bit dated and general condition could be better. Very strong cigarette smell everywhere.
It was very convenient to go everywhere.
The staff members were almost nice except some staff. The bed was comfortable.
I didn’t have time to use the restaurant, but Ayasofya view was very nice. I wish I had a chance to dine there. They have a lovely cat, she slept on my lap, which was amazing.
I want to stay again next time I go to Istanbul.

The location was perfect, The guys at reception were great. The restaurant staff were very average. The breakfast room was very sad. The cleaners did not clean the room well, although the bed was clean. I felt we were an inconvenience. I would not recommend them.
