We spent an enjoyable six days here during our recent Istanbul vacation. The staff are wonderful and very helpful. We arrived at the hotel at 0830 way before normal check in. We were quietly and efficiently checked in and provided a temporary room and seamlessly transferred into our proper room later in the day. Extremely welcome treatment after a long... More

I have to mention that Serap Kalik and Fulya two of the staff members there were extremely wonderful. They responded to all our needs, requirements, arrangements, both immediately and professionally. The whole experience was improved just simply by... More

The hotel has a wonderful location on the Marmara sea. Using the back entrance, you can be in Sultanahmet in less than 10 minutes by walking. The front reception staff are wonderful, friendly and helpful. Here are the negatives, and there are too many for a hotel that calls itself a four star hotel. The walls and windows are paper... More
