Not for single ladies.
Not for single ladies. The young manager feels free to make sexual advances and the other receptionist knows. Sickening. Great service provided to my dad. They made sure he kept a family room for the price of a small one. Astounding lip service paid to my old man. Kind and helpful staff overall. One room I got had a noisy water system in the wall it seems: very loud noise in the morning. Another one had a water temperature hard to adjust but manageable. Great location, view, cheap and practical if you have good legs to walk the short but steep distance to the grand bazaar and very useful tramline 1.

We went with my family (2 adults, 2kids). Excellent experience! The property manager Ömer was fantastic and really helped us feel at ease and safe. Rooms were very nice, clean and spacious. Lots of restaurants at a walkable distance. Very close to the blue mosque and Hagia Sophia.

Es war in Ordnung für 3 Nächte, das Zimmer war leider viel zu klein und wir haben kein Babybett bekommen, sprich 2 Erwachsene und 1 Kleinkind auf einem Bett in einem Minizimmer, die Angestellten waren aber freundlich und sauber war es auch

Hôtel pratique et accueillant.
Hôtel simple, confortable et bien placé dans quartier typique, à deux pas des sites de Sultanhamet et de la ligne de tram. Accueil, services, disponibilité et amabilité de l'équipe de réception impeccables. Nous étions dans une chambre un peu petite (10 m2) mais correctement équipée. Jolie vue depuis la terrasse en rough top.

Excellent hôtel à proximité des commodités Néanmoins je ne passerais plus par Expédia pour passer une réservation car j’ai bien signalé que j’étais venu pour une famille de 4 personnes et je me suis retrouvé le premier jour avec un studio avec un seul lit….. Heureusement le responsable m’a récupéré une chambre plus grande ce qui a sauvé nos vacances car dormir à 4 sur un lit n’est jamais pratique ….
