I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! It's in a prime location, close to the Sultanahmet area and important monuments, and the staff, especially Ayhan and Ismail, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The service was top-notch, and the dining experience was beautifully served with interesting food options. The view of the Blue Mosque from the restaurant was just stunning. However, I wish the rooms had better views over the Bosporus, but overall, this hotel offers great value for money.
