A good location a few minutes from the Blue Mosque, Aya Sophia and tram stop. Also a reasonably short walk to the Grand Bazaar, Topkapi and Galata Bridge. Interesting hotel building and friendly helpful staff. We had a large de luxe room on the top floor (a bit of a climb but worth it) with great views towards Aya Sophia... More

This hotel is in a beautifully restored mansion. The landings of the floors are displayed a bit like a museum, with women's clothes and accessories. All of the room furniture is period appropriate. We had a stunning view of the blue mosque from our cozy room (small but adequate). Bathroom has been refurbished with modern fittings and is very clean,... More

We were nervous about staying here, given the mixed reviews the hotel has received online. However, we had a wonderful stay! Our garden room was very small, but beautifully decorated with classic furniture and wall hangings. Similarly, the wall hangings and framed tiles/pictures in the atriums of the hotel created a really quaint, Turkish feel. Even though our room was... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in September. As stated in other reviews, some of the rooms are tiny - the photographs on the website make the rooms look larger than they are. Ours room was small and a little more elbow room would have been nice, but it was charming and clean; the bathroom was a good size and... More

Timber flooring and dry wall construction has its disadvantages, but we were quite satisfied with this hotel. The fact that it is centrally located is a huge advantage. If not this hotel, find one that is also in the old city. Easy to get to after a long night out. Our garden room was small and the shower cubicle tiny.... More

Oh brother, where do I even begin? - Don't let the pretty pics on their website fool you. The hotel isn't as glamorous as they make it look. - According to their website, "this is a residence, which smells history abundantly..." Really? It certainly smells of something, alright! It's not a completely unpleasant smell, but it definitely has that old-building-with-old-facilities... More

Despite its good location just a street away from the Blue Mosque, this hotel is extremely overpriced compared to others and is not accurately described on its website. We first tried to book the cheaper garden suite but they managed to give it to someone else leaving us with no choice but to book a deluxe room at 120 euros... More
