I can't get over how helpful the staff were! they even set up a little surprise for us with balloons during our stay, making it feel special.

It wasn't exactly cheap, but given the experience, it was reasonable.

Amazing Hospitality and Perfect Location!

We had the best time during our stay! The staff organized a surprise birthday celebration for us in the lobby, complete with balloons and music, making it feel truly special. The breakfast was fantastic and kept us energized for our sightseeing adventures. We loved how close we were to Hagia Sophia, just a short walk away. Just a small note, it would be nice if the curtains blocked out the outside light better.

The location is perfect. we were just a short walk from all the fun tourist stuff like the blue mosque and spice market. the staff was super nice, always ready to help us out! our room was clean and comfy, and having a lift was a big plus since one of us had mobility issues. breakfast was tasty and had lots to choose from, which made mornings great!

It was just an excellent fit for a cursory stop in Istanbul with excellent value for money. The breakfast had a lot of varieties to start the day right. Bring your own snacks if you want more affordable options nearby.
