Excellent location. Good property but the room was quite simple. Rooftop restaurant has amazing views on 3 sides. We only had breakfast there and that was OK. Helpful and friendly staff.

Me and my wife had an awesome experience staying at this hotel. The staff is very friendly and can help you find everything you need. There is no better spot to stay in if you are inIstanbul for site seeing. I can also recommend their guide service for $120 US I had a complete personal tour of all the important local sites and it was excellent worth every penny.
