My Stay with family

Lovely hotel with character and beautiful architecture.Very close to landmarks and beautiful views of Blue Mosque. Quiet and friendly.Excellent choice of breakfast and terrace with sea views.Staff were very helpful especially Sadet who welcomed us and Zaki in restaurant.Very hospitable people. Only downside was that it is an old hotel and needs modernisation with bathrooms and floors.

Liked: Staff & service
The property is unique and lovely yet has a number of serious issues. Our room required you to step into the shower to use the bathroom as the door opened inward - your socks or feet then always get wet just to use the toilet. Many prays of the hotel are threadbare/very old and musty. Breakfast was passable but the coffee was atrocious and the eggs often dry, old, and sulfurous. The room lacked space for two people to manage their luggage etc. might stay there again but doubt it

Not expensive but sub par. Bad pillows and beds. Very cramped bathroom. Not quiet. Hallways have very turned up heat. Breakfast awful! Upon arrival which was dinner time we were told the resturant that was recommended was no linger good snd the front desk suggested a really awful place. The day manager was much more helpful and easy to converse with. Location fir the old city is exceptional. Would not stay there again!

Perfect for our holiday in the old town Istanbul.

The location was perfect, with staff who were all so helpful. The shower and toilet was designed in traditional style and was a little small but we got the hang of it. The air con was quiet and served a purpose as needed. The hotel and breakfast restaurant was relaxing, a range of food ,with lovely music being played.. a totally recommended hotel to stay in Istanbul central to historic sites
