Alright
The hotels location is superb and rooms are clean. There are 6 floors with 2 lifts and one of them was broken from the day we arrived till end of our stay which made going to the lobby or the restaurant annoying as the working lift was always full and we had to wait 5 to 10 minutes to get in every time

A great hotel located at the best location of old historic sultan ahmet. Started with pre arrival welcome note from Mr engine from reception team, we had a great stay throughout our 5 days stay. Rooms were clean, spacious, north American size large bathrooms, nice turkish traditional decor and the list goes on. One of the top attraction for us was was the roof top restaurant buffet breakfast with 360 panoramic view of the bosphorus sea and city. The view alone makes the stay at this hotel worthwhile. Speaking of breakfast, they had a wide selections to cater to all taste. Special thanks to Tugce and Yilmaz at the restaurant to make our experience more special. Also thanks to Saleha at housekeeping to clean our room immaculately everyday and last but not least mr Engine at reception for all his recommendations and advises during our stay. Me and my family will definitely return to Istanbul and this hotel in future.

The location of this hotel can't be beat. Its close walking distance to some of the most prominent attractions as well as to the tram. The view from the terrace restaurant is incredible. However the rooms are pretty average. Our room constantly had a smell (may be due to being closed and heat on). The temperature can only be regulated by opening the windows as the heat is constantly on. I would rate this as a 3-star hotel par with a hampton inn in the US.
