The location was unrivaled for a short stay in Instanbul to see the key sites in Sultanamet- it is next to the Topaki Palace wall, one block from the entrance gate. (You can see Aga Sophia from there also, and it is just a few minutes walk to the Blue Mosque and Basilica Cisterns (stunning). The staff could not have been more charming - Rasim in particular- and you can not forget Rambo and the rooftop breakfast room with views over the Bosphorus.

There was nothing that I did not like.

The location was unbelievable, close to most of the old buildings, close to all kinds of restaurants and shops. There was something different and appealing about the hotel’s ambience. The public rooms and my room were rococo; the breakfast was in a beautiful room on the top floor (US), a mix of Western and Turkish specialties presided over by a most helpful and charming man; there were three receptionists, all extremely helpful, ready to do anything for you; other staff so nice also. An author with knowledge of Turkey would find this a perfect place to write mystery novels!

Even though the receptionists helped tremendously helping me charge my electronics, it would have been great if there could be in-room charging capability. Otherwise travelers should bring full-capability charger equipment. In the bathroom it would have been great to have tissues.

The location of the property was excellent. The old city shops were a few minute walk. The Blue Mosque was about 8 minutes walk. Lovely Turkish breakfast served by Rambo, my name for him. He was very knowledgeable when asking questions about different places to see and do. His service was excellent, nothing was too much trouble, thank you Rambo. He also gave us a present as it was my partners birthday. The room was also perfect, we had a view of the sea and the old walls. Shower was lovely and hot. Thank you also to the reception staff who gave us ideas of what was good to check out.

Having to come home. We should have booked for longer than 4 days.

The location was superb, very close to the main sights, restaurants and transport. The hotel staff was very helpful in booking airport transfers and recommending places to eat. I also had a wake-up call (a real one, not an automated one) the first morning there after a very late arrival the night before. The room was comfortable and clean. The view from the breakfast room terrace was stunning.

The room was a tad on the small side, but then apart from sleeping I spent very little time there.

The property is very central located. Topkapi, Hagia Sofia and the blue mosque 5 minutes walk. There are many restaurants and shopping around the corner. Where the hotel is positioned it’s nice an quiet. It’s a beautiful small hotel with a nice entree in Turkish style. The rooms are nicely decorated, the beds comfortable. From the breakfast area you have a view in the Hagia Sofia Mosque and you can see the Bosporus. The breakfast was Turkish style. We enjoyed it a lot. The staff was very friendly.

Exceptionally well located, clean and welcoming hotel. In the heart of the old city district of Istanbul, the staff are extremely helpful, the rooms are well serviced and clean. The gorgeous views of Hagia Sophia and the Bosphorus are stunning. This is my fourth stay at this hotel and I cannot recommend it highly enough and many of my family and friends who have stayed absolutely agree!

Absolutely nothing.

They were extremely attentive from our arrival to our departure. The breakfast is plentiful and varied. The view from the restaurant is fantastic! The hotel is as close as possible to all attractions! Almost at arm's length! A family-run hotel with a unique, friendly atmosphere and attentive staff. Special thanks to Mr. Rambo for preparing our wonderful breakfast every morning and putting a smile on our faces with his friendly attention.

It wasn't like that. We were perfectly satisfied with everything!

A beautiful boutique hotel which felt like home, especially with the friendly and super helpful hospitality from the staff! Perfect location right on the back of Hagia Sofia Mosque and 5 mins away from the Blue Mosque, you can walk to all tourist attractions! The rooms are a little on the small side, otherwise I can’t fault anything about this place! The breakfast at the terrace was lovely with traditional food and the views were fantastic!

Location location location - the best ever The room was cleaned everyday, they changed the sheets 3 times since we were travelling with a toddler which made quite a mess Breakfast was amazing - diversified The staff working there is the best - they make you feel like home They helped us with laundry one day The view from the room and from the terace is magnificent

One thing which did not bothered us, but it might be important for other guests to know - the prayer times - check the schedule for the prayers, the location is so close to Hagia Sophia, you will be awake every day by the imam in the morning.

The service was outstanding. Very friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect and could not have been more accessible to the Hagia Sofi, Topkapi and Blue Mosque. Breakfast was excellent and the top floor terrace lovely.
