A very cozy little chamber hotel in the very historical center of Istanbul, a five-minute walk from Hagia Sophia. You need to take a room with a sea view! Otherwise, there will be a view of the courtyard or a gloomy wall. The breakfasts are decent enough for such a small hotel, besides they are on the 4th floor with an outdoor terrace allowing you to enjoy the beauties of the Bosphorus and the Marmara Sea. Just do not leave your breakfast for a long time, otherwise it will quickly be picked up by local seagulls - they are there, like our sparrows. And it's very nice that they give us a small souvenir when we leave, like a coffee pair! It is better to catch a taxi by going down to the road near the embankment, because the entrance to the hotel is narrow.

The hotel is 3 stars, but the hotel is super. Everything is excellent: service, comfort, breakfasts, staff. But we must keep in mind that the hotel is located in the old town, the terrain is mountainous, paved. Hagia Sophia is 680 steps away. The most popular place, full of people in any weather. The staff at the hotel speaks decent English, readily provides any information on the location of interesting places to visit, they do not speak Russian. The hotel left a very pleasant aftertaste.

It's a great hotel, small and cozy. Excellent location for a tourist. Excellent staff, the guys effectively help with all the everyday issues that arise for the traveler. Breakfast for the 5th check-in. Both in terms of products and serving (the restaurant is located on the upper floors, there is an outdoor terrace overlooking the Bosphorus).

A great hotel in the historical, European part of Istanbul. The Blue Mosque is a five-minute walk away. Clean, cozy rooms, high-quality breakfast on the top floor, with a summer terrace. I definitely recommend it.

A cozy place with a view of the Bosphorus. A small, clean, intimate room on a quiet Turkish street. It is in such a place that the atmosphere of calm Istanbul reigns. Incredible views of the Bosphorus from the balcony. In the neighborhood, don't be afraid of the huge seagulls that often nest on the roof. Nice staff.

Beautiful little hotel. Tricky staff, like everywhere else) but they were always ready to help, but they promised to move to another room, but they didn't.… The breakfasts are quite good, the buffet, but the wasps were very confused (!) there are honeycombs on the table in the distribution area, which attract wasps very much, and there are a lot of them there, I don't want to go for food or drinks once again.. but the view is gorgeous! Audibility: you can hear everything that happens in the hallway and in the neighboring rooms. Rooms: clean, but we don't go barefoot or in socks, we always wear slippers, I heard one of the guests swearing at dirty floors, but visually clean. Towels were changed, cleaned well. There were no foreign smells. The rooms are very cramped but cozy. They changed the pillow at my request. The location is great! The embankment and Sultanahmet Square are all within walking distance.

Nice hotel, clean, not tired rooms. Very friendly staff. The breakfasts were also good, lots of fruits. The room may seem small to some, but that didn't bother us. The only negative was the very loud refrigerator, which started to crackle in the middle of the night.

We rested at the hotel from 15.08 to 23.08., together with my daughter. The hotel was chosen based on reviews. We didn't make a mistake with the choice, and we were very happy about it. The hotel is located in a quiet location, and at the same time not far from the central Sultanahmet Square, where most of the attractions are located. The staff is very polite, the room is perfectly clean (standard room), cleaned every other day. Breakfast is organized on the terrace, with a magnificent view of the Bosphorus. .The breakfasts are very hearty, delicious, lots of fruits, various cheeses, etc. Separately, you can ask for fried eggs. Upon departure, we were presented with a present (coffee mugs), it was very unexpected and pleasant. I recommend it to everyone.

A good 4-star hotel. We visited in February 2025, everything is clean and new. Daily cleaning service. We booked it at the booking office for half a year. The price turned out great! Friends lived three times more expensive, having booked 2 weeks before arrival.

We stayed at this hotel from November 7 to November 12 this year. The location is great. The staff is very friendly. The room was cleaned daily. We got a room with a view of the Bosphorus - everything is as I dreamed of. The breakfasts are delicious, and with a view from the terrace - just. The location of the hotel is just TOP! Within walking distance from the sights. We will definitely come back! I'm already dreaming about the next trip.

A wonderful chamber hotel with a fairly fresh renovation, excellent room cleaning and friendly staff. Breakfast is served on the outdoor terrace surrounded by seagulls) The breakfasts themselves are delicious, but monotonous (at the same time, you can always order something new for an extra.payment). It is better to book a suite, since the standard ones are insanely small, but we were exchanged without an extra.payment, which is super nice!) And the girl Emine from the cleaning always pleases us with works of art and promptly cleans while we have breakfast 🥰

The hotel is small but decent, everything is on the level, the interior is very beautiful, the staff is friendly and helpful. The rooftop breakfast restaurant is not large, there is an outdoor terrace. The food is varied, hot dishes are changed daily, fruits, sweets - everything is there. Pleasant waiters, and in the lobby there is always a lukum and Turkish tea, lemon water will be offered, on the ground floor there is a quiet place to play chess or read, with beautiful photo zones. I liked the hotel, soft bathrobes, branded cosmetics, excellent pillows and beds, not all rooms have a gorgeous view, but the service and interior compensate for everything) as well as a compliment from the hotel to the room in the form of fruit, it's nice. It is located very close to Sultanahmet Square, all attractions are a 5-minute walk away. There are shops nearby and a lot of restaurants to choose from. For Istanbul, the hotel is at a height, I recommend

The hotel itself is nice, but the breakfasts are disgusting. However, it's the same as everywhere else in Turkey. But breakfast is modest, if you don't eat eggs, you're unlikely to find anything to eat here. On the last day, the cheese was so smelly that I had to give the whole plate away to be cleaned.

The breakfasts are good, overlooking the sea, in summer there is an outdoor terrace. The big minus is the audibility in the rooms. The front door is so non-noise insulated that light is coming through from the hallway.

A nice city hotel in the heart of the old city in Istanbul for real tourists. Good location, 5 minutes to Hagia Sophia, Topkapi and Blue Mosque. The same distance to the embankment. There are many restaurants and cafes on the next street, opposite the minimarket. And at the same time, it is not as noisy here as on Sikerji and Sultanahmet. Very good breakfast in the restaurant on the terrace overlooking the sea. Several buildings inside the courtyard, an authentic hotel. The cleaning is good. The staff is friendly, there are Russian speakers at the reception.

I have visited few hotels in Istanbul, but I have been to this one 4 times, and I will say that it suits me 100%. The trips to Istanbul were working, there was little time for walks. But despite the lack of time, we managed to see all the sights nearby. And this is the SULTANAHMET Mosque, and HAGIA SOPHIA. Excellent location in a quiet area, but with excellent prospects for hiking. The price is not the cheapest, but comfort, breakfast, and a view of the Bosphorus compensate for this. There are beautiful Turkish streets, shops nearby, and there is a market nearby.
