The hotel is so close to the city center and just a few stops away from the Grand Bazaar. The rooms have extremely comfortable king-size beds, but the windows are tiny. The service is top-notch with convenient shuttle services available. However, the dining options are a bit lacking, offering only butter. The location is very convenient, just a short walk to the Blue Mosque and Grand Bazaar. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, but Wi-Fi comes at an extra cost.

The hotel offers a convenient location close to the main tourist attractions and a tram station that makes it easy to reach popular destinations. While the rooms are comfortable, they can feel a bit cramped with twin beds and limited hot water availability. The service is satisfactory with available amenities like room service and dry cleaning. However, the dining options are restricted, mainly offering fish and chips. Overall, it's a decent choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking a practical stay in Istanbul.

The hotel has very comfortable beds but the bathrooms are cramped. The windows are tiny, yet the location is fantastic near the city center and a tram station that provides easy access to Sultanahmet. The handmade pasta in the dining area was a plus, but the lack of space was quite noticeable. Overall, the value for money leans more towards the expensive side.

I had a decent stay at the hotel. The rooms were equipped with the tinniest windows but I must admit that the kingsize bed was very very comfortable, although the bathrooms felt a bit cramped up. The service was satisfactory, a few amenities like room service and housekeeping were accessible, contributing to my convenience during my stay. The location was quite central, with easy access to the Suleyman the Great mosque and some landmarks within Istanbul City center. While the facilities were generally decent, the price could have been better for the value provided.

The hotel is in a prime location close to the heart of the old city, making it easy to explore all the tourist attractions. The rooms, while cozy, may feel a bit cramped, and the availability of hot water can be inconsistent. The service is attentive and accommodating, offering convenient amenities like room service and tours assistance. The dining options, particularly for burgers, could be more diverse. The location is a standout, providing easy access to the grand bazaar, tram stations, and all the historical sites.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were cozy and had the tiniest windows, but the king-size beds were incredibly comfortable. The service was top-notch, offering room service and a convenient airport shuttle. The location was perfect, very close to the Grand Bazaar and the city center. The dining only offered hot sandwiches, which was a bit limited. The facilities were adequate, but the price could have offered better value for money.
