Lovely place to stay near Galata Tower
Not the cheapest place to stay, but reasonable by western standards, especially given the high level of service in a classic, elegant building in an excellent location. The spa services - especially the packaging of massage and hammam - were wonderful (though, again, not very cheap by Istanbul standards). The breakfast was excellent and included made-to-order eggs. The room was very comfortable, with all the amenities one would expect in a high-end hotel.

Compact hotel with good location
The hotel is well located to visit the main attractions for first-timers in Istanbul, like Sultanahmet or the Asian side. There are many dining options within walking distance as well. Rooms are not very big, but clean and comfortable. Service was very friendly. The gym and the spa were a bit deceiving, didn't match the overall level of the hotel.

Great value and location
Service was friendly and they really just made every effort you could ask for. Rooftop is a beautiful view and very relaxing. Spa was pretty good. Turkish bath was super fun as a couple. Massages were could but tables were cool I’d like them heated.
