The hotel is located in a fantastic area, very close to all the major attractions and with easy access to public transportation. It's just a short walk to Sultan Ahmed and Aya Sofia, and there are plenty of restaurants and shisha bars nearby. The staff at this hotel are incredibly friendly, helpful, and polite, and they speak good English. The rooms are in great condition, with balconies on the higher floors offering a wonderful view. The breakfast here is fantastic, with a wide variety of dishes and mouthwatering desserts.
The only minor issue I encountered during my stay was a bit of noise from the nearby tram.

Additionally, the staff was amazing; they were professional, kind, and always willing to give a hand. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast offered was delicious.
Nothing to mention.
