Staff was very friendly and co-operative. Ismail and other staff guided me about nearby attractions, helped me with transportation. I was a solo traveler. They helped make my stay comfortable. Even helped me charge my phone as I didn't have the correct charger for Turkey :). Property was walking distance from all major attractions.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall I would rate the hotel as a 3 star not a 4 star hotel. It was very convenient to Istanbul attractions. We walked to the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sofia Mosque in a 15 minute uphill walk. It was entirely safe except for the Turkish rug salesmen around the mosques. The calls for prayer were loud, but this is all over the city. We also walked to the Basilica cistern, Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar and Galata Bridge and Tower on easy walks. I feel that the hotels location is its biggest asset. There are a large number of restaurants and nightlife immediately adjacent to the hotel. We had 2 free nights from Turkish Airlines and added 2 additional nights for a total of 4. The breakfast was good and we ate dinner in the hotel restaurant 2 nights. I would definitely stay there again. Istanbul is a lively vibrant city.

A nice enough hotel near the Bosphorus . The rooms were adequate though the a/c could have been more effective . Its on the bus route into the centre and walkable if you head up hill towards Blue Mosque
