superb lodging choice

wooden shadeswonderful viewrented car
the gym offered wooden shades for privacy employees promptly put them down upon seeing me work out the steam room sauna and turkish bath eliminated my need to seek a hamam in the city this saved money for daily hotel breakfasts i found totally worth it. the view from the terrace overlooking the bosphorus was wonderful i often enjoyed evenings sipping tea in this mostly empty space.
the limousine plus company assisted me in renting a car with eray as our driver i got the chance to visit beautiful places in turkey one place was sapanca it was a wonderful experience i recommend this company.

Fantastic Stay!

helpful conciergeperfect setting
The service at the concierge was helpful (especially Ugur's assistance). The rooftop City Lights Bar offered Asian-Japanese cuisine. It was a perfect setting for special moments.
The cleanliness of the hotel was not at the level expected. I found that the housekeeper had taken the trash out of the bathroom bin and left it in the room.
