The hotel is situated in an excellent location, just a short walk from the main attractions like the Blue Mosque and Aya Sofia, which I really appreciated. The rooms were clean and spacious enough for our group, but we could hear everything from the neighboring rooms, which was a bit annoying. The dining options were quite basic but still tasty. Overall, I felt the hotel offered good value for money, despite a few hiccups.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel thanks to its superb location just minutes away from the iconic Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. The rooms, while in excellent condition, felt a bit too small for my taste, and I wished there was more space to organize my belongings. The service was very accommodating, and I appreciated the amenities offered, though the dining options could be more robust. Overall, this place offers great value considering its prime location.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located just a short walk from Istanbul's famous attractions like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The rooms were clean and neat, but they didn't quite match the images I expected.

Overall, it offers good value for money, especially given its prime location.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel, which has a great location just a couple of minutes from all the major attractions like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The rooms were nice and clean, but some areas felt a bit worn out and could use fresh sheets. Service was decent, but there were a few minor hiccups during my visit. It's a handy place to stay, however, so the pros definitely outweigh the cons.
