I know there are fancier hotels in the area but the Kafkas staff always greet me so kindly and make my stay nice. They have given good advice when I had questions about Istanbul. I always come back because the location is absolutely ideal!!! As a single woman traveling alone, I always feel safe. I LOVE the kiosk right next door! They are my friends and I mostly buy from them.

I'm not much of a breakfast person so I don't care if they don't have a huge variety. I just grab coffee and some eggs. If I want more, there are amazing bakeries nearby.

1. Location- walking distance to all Istanbul attractions i.e. Spice Bazaar, Hagia Sofia, Sultanahmet Mosque, Grand Bazaar etc 2. Room - the room that was given to us was spacious and furnished with basic electrical goods for short stay such as electric kettle, refrigerator, and hairdryer.

1. Breakfast - foods served were traditional Turkish foods (i.e bread with butter and spreads, milk, coffee, juice, cereal, eggs, tomato, olive, cucumber, fries, salami, cheese, and cake). Perhaps the hotel should add fresh fruits to the menu. 2. Toilet cover for room 502 was loose and needs tightening. 3. Bad stinky toilet smell- not sure where it was from but the smell usually arises in the morning. Most probably there was a leak somewhere. Hotel management please take necessary action to solve the problem.

Location, Location, Location. If you are coming to Istanbul, I mean central old historical part. This Hotel is in absolute best location. Tram, main Sirkeci station and Bhosphorus cruise on your door step. Local shops and historical places very near.

Location is best, very convenient, basic, clean and cheap. I had 2 rooms one facing the busy street the other facing some rear pipes 😉. WiFi was good, breakfast small but essentially enough. Toilet had some issue like lose toilet seat. And basic wear and tear, but that’s forgivable

The location... It is my second stay in this hotel... The hotel is near to everything : tram,, train, Egypt bazar, eminounou, bosphore, sultan Ahmet and hagia Sophia...

It will be good to improve the breakfast a little

-the location - just near the tram Gulhane ♥️🫶🏻😍 - nice stuff and helping (our hair dryer didn’t work and they brought us a different one, even better, thank you ) - good tasty breakfast, -clean room, good beds

- no blankets, it was cold 🥲 - the problem with the door in the WC

I like the location everything is walking distance to get to lots of restaurants and shops feels safe at all times

The breakfast could do with a bit more choices

The location was two block away from everything (tram, Marmara line, eminonu, ayasofia, Gülhane park...) The breakfast on the terrace with the view of the bospfore, the galata tower, the topkapı, the bridge of 15 July was superb. The lady in the reception was very nice and charming... Thank you for everything...

Bad internet...

In this hotel everything was good, staff were friendly and helpful, they didn't over charge for water which other places were doing, it was a relief to stay here especially after staying in a hotel called Garth of Balad it was the worst experience there- but that was not our choice, we booked another hotel (with russian name in Balad) that had good reviews but they double booked so when we turned up the russian hotel had no room for us, we had to desperately look for another hotel and found only Garth of Balad. After staying there, this hotel was a breath of fresh air, beautiful and clean.

I loved it here, it was affordable, but in a great location, clean comfortable, good breakfast and stuff was also OK. Very good value for money.

The location is excellent and it was close to the places I would like to visit, and I enjoyed it very much during this period, despite its shortness, but I would like to repeat the experience again in the near future

There is nothing that I did not like, except that the room did not have a teapot and its tools, but it does not matter, the room in general is excellent
