7.6Verified guest“The hotel was absolutely great, I liked the sea view from our king room. Its location was magnificent, a short walk to the Blue Mosque and the tram station on Laleli Street. It was also close to transport.”
7.6Verified guest“This hotel offers great value for money, especially given its location in the busy Kumkapi district. The staff are polite and courteous, and the rooms are clean with basic amenities. Breakfast is satisfactory, though lacking fruits.”
7.6Verified guest“The staff were extremely helpful, polite, and flexible; I was very pleased with the treatment we received. The price-to-value ratio is quite good. The hotel is within walking distance of main historical sights, restaurants, and small teahouses. If you want a comfortable city-trip base, this is a good choice. (If only there were cereals and milk at breakfast, it would be perfect.)”
