Our stay was amazing! Amir and Housain were great! Provided us with tons of information and basically planned our stay for us. The room was perfect and had a nice little courtyard. Location was perfect. We got the Sultan Massage and the ladies were wonderful. Would not change anything- it was perfect.

Nice, clean hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was OK. But the TV in my room didn’t work, the room itself was very small, there was only one tiny bar of soap provided, and the adjustable shower head kept slipping and sliding down the pole. Decent hotel but maybe a little overpriced.

This is not a 5 star. The hotel photos are deceptive. I was immediately given a hard sell on tours (twice actually). The rooms and public area are dated, chipped paint, and old. My electricity when out in the middle of the night and I woke up to a phone with no charge, which delayed my hours. The maid kept knocking on my door. She used outside my room for her cart and was incredibly noisy. Lastly, the hotel has a central staircase that carries noise. The front house staff were nice, but this was a horrible choice on my part and very expensive due to location…NOT quality.

We stayed there with a toddler and a nine month old baby. They provided a crib. There are lots of dining places and small grocery stores around which made easy to buy dippers and baby food for my baby. They also have babysitting upon request. The lady who does housekeeping is available for babysitting after 3 pm. She watched my 2 kids for 4 hours while me and my husband enjoyed a hamam/SPA. The hotel is small but have an elevator. Veru close to Aya Sofia.

Nice from far but far from nice.
This hotel was a huge disappointment. The description on Hotels.com makes the hotel out to be a small slice of luxury a short walk from the Hagia Sofia and Topkapi Fortress. It is a short walk but it certainly is not luxury. Some points: It started on arrival. I arrived early and asked to leave my bags at reception until I could check in. No problem... Only the receptionist left my bags next to the front door. I asked to move them away and he argued with me, asked me what was valuable. Eventually he moved them away from the front door (that is right on the main street) I purchased a suite with a separate bedroom but was only given a double room with an additional rollaway bed. The afternoon receptionist decided to argue that that the double room was a suite. They did change (after a lot of arguing on the definition of a suite) and in fairness the morning staff were very helpful! Some other things in the room description: Luxury Bedding - ours were worn and even ripped in places. Luxy towels - Ours were old, rough and frayed at the edges. Some were even from different hotels! Luxury bathrobes - we got none even after asking. Luxury toiletries - standard hotel bottles. Spa and Hammam - was out of order and appeared to have been out of order for a while. Soundproofed - We were kept awake until 1 - 2AM by the pub across the street. My smart phone measured this as 45-50 dB everyday work noise. We didn't sleep much. My suggestion - book somewhere else!
