I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I can't say enough good things about my experience! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. The rooms are beautifully designed, spacious, and impeccably clean, offering a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. The amenities are top-notch, from the relaxing spa to the well-equipped fitness centre, making it easy to unwind and stay active during my stay. The on-site dining options are fantastic, with a menu that caters to a variety of tastes, offering delicious meals from breakfast to dinner. What truly sets this hotel apart is the attention to detail and the genuine care from the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure my stay was nothing short of perfect. Whether you're travelling for business or leisure, I highly recommend this hotel for an unforgettable experience. I'll definitely be returning on my next trip!

The hotel is clean and has good amenities, located very central to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar which is why we booked this. The breakfast has a good variety. The ladies at the spa are brilliant at the treatments they do. However, the other hotel staff are not incredibly helpful, upon making the booking I requested for my rooms to be next door to one another via email. I received one email asking for my reservation number and then I heard nothing more but I resent the email. Upon arrival they had all our rooms on separate floors and I was told they are busy, not understanding I was not comfortable having my children on separate floors to myself. Although they managed to arrange the rooms all on the same floor, it was not a great start to the holiday. Concierge staff also felt like they were doing you a favour when you asked about any excursions. Overall customer service is quite poor.
