"Best place in the old city. Step out the door, look right and see Galata Tower. Cozy, quaint, 24 hour reception, coffee shop in lobby, plenty of hot water, big room, lots within easy walking distance, helpful staff, two markets in same block. Would absolutely stay there again."
"Quaint comfortable room with classic feeling furnishings. Helpful and attentive service, very good breakfast. Panoramic view from roof, but staff don't permit photos with interchangeable lens cameras "because the hotel is a designated historical site." And they said that status could be at risk if I was cought using my camera on the roof. "

"A gem in the center of the best shopping, dining and entertainment area of Istanbul. Taksim and Gakata are only minutes away walking. The staff is exquisite and extremely helpful and cordial. The hotel is clean and classy "
"This was my first time in Turkey and we stayed about 9 days. I was very pleasantly surprised to find this hotel so close to everything. We walked almost everywhere: Hagia Sophia, Blue Dome Mosque, Basilica (which were 20 feet from the hotel), Grand Bazaar, and close by to restaurants that you did not have to use or pay for any transportation. (Avoid taxis at ALL costs, if you can). It is better to find one of the all day rental companies with the black vans and pay a set fee before you use the taxi. Also, the tram was cheap and quick. The staff were very nice at the hotel and the breakfast was very good. If you eat their breakfast, honestly, you won't need a lunch. They had such a good assortment of choices: soup, eggs, Turkish sausage, olives, yogurts, breads, fruit, veggies, and the CHEESES!!!! This hotel will pay for itself. The staff were helpful and all spoke English on some level. The hotel is not modern, but Istanbul is an old city. It was charming to stay at and the windows facing the street would open to let us get a cool breeze which I appreciated very much. The other room we got had a Juliette balcony which was an A+! The hotel provided us with a very user friendly map at check-in and it saved us so much time and helped us choose the places to visit. I read the posts from some of the other experiences after I made the reservation, but before we stayed here. I really can genuinely recommend this hotel for you and your family. Safe Travels."
