My room had a stocked fridge, a safe, and a blanket. The drinking water was replenished each day. It was so thoughtful! The location offered easy access to the Grand Bazaar and the Blue Mosque.
The room was a bit small and lacked a view. The pool felt quite tiny. The spa had an unpleasant odor. It made it difficult to relax.

Excellent Location and Friendly Service

convenient locationfree waterhelpful staff
The hotel's location was fantastic for seeing local attractions, all within a short walk. Tram and metro stations were conveniently close (less than 5 minutes away). I appreciated the complimentary water provided with dinner and in the room.
The swimming pool felt a bit small, more like a fish tank. It was located in a basement with dim lighting, seem not so inviting.
Dining

Breakfast offered good variety. There was an omelet station where a chef prepared fresh omelets to order. The restaurant is located on the top floor and offers a beautiful view of the Bosphorus.

Staff members were very cute and helpful. I found the personnel to be friendly. One staff member offered water, coffee, and tea each day after breakfast (I didn't know before!). It was a lovely stay and good value for the money.
