Seven Hills Palace & Spa
The staff were very good and informative. We had a lovely room that over looked the Bosphorus and the pool. It is set in a nice location, near all the sites in the Old City. Would recommend the hotel. The waitresses and waiters were very good and spoke good English, especially Tugba.
