Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is ideally located in the historic center of Istanbul, just a 5-minute walk from the Grand Bazaar. The rooms are equipped with a fabulous rain shower fully stocked with toiletries and a jacuzzi, offering all amenities. However, the view from the window on the air conditioning system could be a drawback.
I found the hotel to be a gem in a beautiful area close to the tram station Laleli, offering great comfort and friendly service. However, the dining options were limited, and some facilities could be improved.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy and well-equipped with a fabulous rain shower and fully stocked toiletries. The fifth-level room with a window overlooking the air conditioning system was a unique touch. The service provided at the reception desk was top-notch, offering car hire, dry cleaning, laundry services, and tours/ticket assistance. The location was ideal, situated in a beautiful area very close to the tram station Laleli and within walking distance of the main attractions of Istanbul. The dining experience, although not extravagant, offered decent meals with a superb view. Overall, this hotel is a great choice for those looking for a comfortable stay in a convenient location.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were cozy and clean, the staff was very helpful, and the location was superb. However, the dining options were a bit limited. The price was reasonable, but some additional amenities would have been great.
