If your purpose for visiting Istanbul is mainly to see Hagia Sophia & Blue Mosque, this hotel is your best location. We loved staying just within few hundred feet of these two beautiful attractions.

Good stay, but below average breakfast
Stay was good, but the room looks different from the images. - Breakfast was average and the coffee was awful. - Omlette station in the breakfast was really good and give many options. - Very close to most of the iconic sports in Istanbul, all in walking distance.

I loved this place. The staff was so kind and helpful. The location next to the Koptapi Palce, Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque was awesome. The restaurant was amazing! Wonderful food, service and view! Breakfast was fresh and delicious and the dinner was amazing! Flavorful and fresh. They have ancient recipes for some dishes that were incredible — hummus with currants and cinnamon, for example. It was a lovely place to eat. Better than other restaurants I found in Istanbul.

The staff were fabulous!! Incredibly helpful and friendly. The eating area was gorgeous…light and airy. The Breakfast was delicious. Location perfect. The rooms…if you’re on the 5th floor on the team side of the hotel you will literally feel like you’re sleeping next to the traffic. Super noisy. After one afternoon we asked if we could be moved to a quieter room And the hotel staff made it happen. If you’re a light sleeper (or any sort of sleeper!) try and make sure you have a room On the other side of the building :)

Bathroom is in terrible condition and very tight. There’s not much space around the toilet. Toilet is too close to the wall. I had to sit sideways. Rooms are not sounds proof. I can hear the next rooms noise. The noise or prayers from Hagia Sofia and blue mosque speakers prayers are very annoying all day and throughout the night.

Great location right next to Hagia Sophia but still quiet and relaxed. Helpful staff, nice breakfast, clean room, big bathroom. Would have liked a bigger shower but that’s a minor quibble. Would come back again.

The location of the hotel is very good. Its close to the santa sofia mosque and the centre of estambul. Very good attention and kind staff. The only thing is that they gave us a little room, but you actually never stay in the hotel, use it only to sleep so finally it was ok!

This charming accommodation in the heart of the city offered the perfect location for our 3-night stay. We were close to everything we wanted to see and do, and the hustle and bustle of the city added to the vibrant atmosphere. would like to give special recognition to Mehmed and Erhan. They were incredibly helpful and friendly throughout our stay. Overall, we had a fantastic experience at this accommodation and would highly recommend it.
