Hotel Arcadia Blue Istanbul
The property is very well located. I got an upgrade room with best view to the Blue Mosque. Breakfast is limited but it was fine for me. The front desk guy was very polite and helpful. I would stay again!

I loved this place, as a solo female traveler I fell safe; it is right in a normal life neighborhood with every day Turkish people. There is shops, restaurants around, you can easily take a stroll in the afternoon or evening around the neighborhood . Staff were very friendly and helped with questions ...
