"Staff very welcoming, with all helped, bags after checkout until the evening allowed to leave, tea was treated and water with them)
Location is closer to the living area than the tourist, so impressive people can be scared in the evening. That was the way it was with my girlfriend, she just wasn't used to something that could be trash and people walk.
In fact, the place is super and a number of tourist places and in 5 min walking the area and streets with resistors, went in the morning and evening there ❤️"
"Staff are great, and everything about the hotel itself is also great. But I personally don’t like the location and the whole area around because especially as a woman traveling alone fatih and sultanahmet area is not the best choice. There are tourist traps and in some areas people looking at you like a target, I heard some people also get stabbed in fatih."
"A good hotel, conveniently located. From the airport, you can take a bus to Sultanahmet and walk a short distance, and the same goes for the return trip from the same stop. All the main attractions are within walking distance, and the T1 tram line has a very convenient route. Near the hotel, there are many shops, cafes, and currency exchange offices with good rates.
The staff were all friendly. Unfortunately, our English isn't great, but they patiently explained everything to us. The room was small but cozy, clean, and had all the amenities. The breakfasts were delicious and satisfying.
Overall, this was our first trip to Istanbul, and we spent a long time choosing a hotel. In the end, everything went great, and we were very happy with our stay. I hope we can come back again!"
"Pros: The breakfast was decent, albeit modest.
Clean bed linen and towels.
Air conditioning and windows that block out street noise (though not 100%).
Fridge.
Wi-Fi.
Location.
Friendly staff.
Cons: There was a bit of mold in the shower.
Absolutely no soundproofing. It felt like my neighbors were having a party on my bed. And having the room located next to the elevator certainly didn't add to the romance.
The room was non-smoking (I'm a smoker), but my room's ventilation decided that my room was a smoking area. So, those who were allowed to smoke in their rooms happily shared their smoke with me through the ventilation system.
But for one night, it wasn't bad at all."
"I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel.
**Location**
Conveniently located – 5 minutes to tram T1 (the main tram line that runs through the entire city center) and 5 minutes to the bus stop, where numerous buses depart, including those to Taksim Square, and from there, HAVABUSIST buses to the airport.
**Breakfasts**
There are always salads, tomatoes, cucumbers, omelets, and cereals; other items vary. I stayed for 3 nights and I’m not particular about food, but Turkish cuisine is quite oily – you should be prepared for that.
**Room**
Shower gel, shampoo, soap, a mini-fridge, and air conditioning are provided. My window faced the courtyard, so it was quiet, but there are mosques nearby, and all the calls to prayer (namaz) are clearly audible.
It's important to note that the hotel is located in the Laleli district – it’s close to Sultanahmet, but it’s also a huge textile market. There's trading everywhere.
**Hotel Staff**
The staff are incredibly pleasant, friendly, and hospitable people. They are always ready to guide you, inform you, and offer advice. Very responsive! Many thanks to them."
"The location was great, very near to eateries and convenience shop is just next door. Room and facilities will meet our expectation as per price paid.
The only thing that troubled me is during the registration process, in which the hotel admin informed that they could not find my registration with the hotel during the check in time. However, the hotel was gracious in immediately providing me a room, while they sort out the issue with Trip.com."
"A great hotel for your money, the room is clean, clean, polite and social staff!
Very everything liked, the number is small, but cozy, there is a terrace with a dome, where you can turn on the evening lighting and sit to drink wine
I advise the settlement, there are many cafes, in 5 minutes beautiful restaurants with incredible feed!"
"Довольно таки не плохой отель.
Всё ещё не убитое жильцами место
Маленький номер 14 квадратов но по цене в 3к рублей вполне себе
Вроде всё убрано было и постиранно но на полу были волосы это наверное главный минус)
В сан узле вода не уходит почините пожалуйста"
"My husband and I stayed here from April 18th to 23rd. When we booked, the room size was listed as 14 sq.m., and the photos showed a room with a balcony and mentioned two windows. The room turned out to be very small, barely enough space to move around, and only had one window (which wasn't a huge deal), and no balcony. In the bathroom, all the hooks for towels, toilet paper, etc., fell off immediately. Breakfast was included, served from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM. The selection was a bit repetitive – coffee, scrambled eggs, sausages, bread, and a small amount of cheese and vegetables – but it was enough to fill us up. We usually came around 9:30 AM, but the scrambled eggs were always gone and not refilled. The location is good, about a 5-7 minute uphill walk to the T1 tram line, which is convenient. It's also not far from the metro and the airport buses. Overall, the hotel is decent for the price."
"I liked the hotel. I'll recommend it to my friends. It has a very good location, within walking distance to attractions. It's on a very charming and cozy street with many cafes and restaurants, but without any noise from them. The room was clean and comfortable. They cleaned and refilled water bottles every day."

GGuest UserThe hotel's location is a bit far from the Old Town, and the room was on the small side. However, it was very clean and provided disposable slippers. They offer free parking and the breakfast is purely Western, with limited variety but enough to fill you up. The price isn't particularly cheap.
GGuest UserGreat location (though we constantly got lost in those little streets). The breakfasts were decent, we didn't get tired of them over 5 days. The view was absolutely beautiful. Eating with such a view every day boosts your mood by 100%. We didn't use the pool, but we did visit the sauna – a nice little bonus. As for downsides: it was noisy. I don't know about other rooms, but our window overlooked a shopping street, and we could hear conversations and vendors setting up from early in the morning. The staff were lovely and friendly. Our room was fully equipped, and everything worked.
GGuest UserIstanbul's Old City gem! This hotel truly hits the spot!
**Amenities:** The hotel is very new and modern. Although the room is small, it has everything you need, and even a small balcony with a great view. There's also a resident cat NPC always by the entrance!
**Cleanliness:** The room is very clean, and the bedding is excellent.
**Service:** The front desk staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. When our taxi stopped at the metro station at the intersection, someone immediately came out to help us with our luggage. Yigi THAN, one of the staff members, checked us in, showed us the room's facilities, and even saw us off to our car when we left, all without expecting a tip.
Right next to the hotel is the Governor's Office, guarded by armed bodyguards, so safety is absolutely top-notch! The surrounding area has plenty of businesses, and it's within walking distance to all the major attractions and the seaside. Plus, there are two fantastic cafes right outside, perfect for breakfast.
GGuest UserGood day. We stayed at this hotel from July 9th to 12th. We were able to check in an hour earlier than the stated check-in time. The location is excellent; all attractions are within walking distance or a short tram ride away. There's a tram and metro stop nearby, and the Galata Tower is just a three-minute walk. The rooms are clean, cozy, and beautiful. Housekeeping is daily, and the staff are responsive and friendly. The rooms are quiet. Breakfasts are decent, buffet style. I especially want to mention the hotel's Russian-speaking representative (unfortunately, I can't remember her name, she's the only one). She is polite, sincere, and competent with tourists, resolving any issues. Every day, she requests feedback from guests about their stay: if everything is satisfactory, if they have any questions, etc. I definitely recommend this hotel; it's great value for money.
AAnonymous UserVery outdated hotel - the interior felt eerie. We stayed in a non-smoking room that smelled like smoke at night. Our shower drain was clogged and would flood (this was fixed however it is not expected of any hotel, let alone a 5 star). Gym was small and equipment is old. Sauna wasn’t working properly - not hot enough. However, staff were friendly and welcoming, and hotel location was convenient if you want to take the tram to tourist sites or walk around the shops, restaurants, etc.
Overall, I don’t think this is a 5 star hotel. I would not stay there again or recommend it to anyone looking for a 5 star hotel.
GGuest UserThis hotel was truly in a fantastic location. My wife and I had a quick holiday getaway, and the staff's attitude was wonderful. It's within walking distance to the ferry terminal and the high-speed train station. I would genuinely recommend it to everyone I know, and it's definitely my top choice for all my future Istanbul trips.
GGuest UserLocated about 20 kilometers from the airport, the room had windows on three sides with unobstructed sea views. The service was excellent; they even called in Chinese in the morning to remind us to have breakfast. The Turkish people are very hospitable.
GGuest UserThe hotel is beautiful, but the rooms are very small, the adaptation is cool and hot, it's what they control.
I booked for breakfast, and the breakfast was delicious.
Lunch was kind of good, but it was overpriced.
AAnonymous UserThe room was nice, but there's a mosque nearby, so it got a bit noisy in the mornings. The breakfast was really bad, but the hygiene and environment were decent. The main issue was that many of the staff didn't speak English, which made communication difficult.
