The hotel is in a great location, just couple of minutes walk to Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque. It is 3* hotel. The room was really small, but luckily we were out most of the time so didn't mind that. The breakfast buffet was bit limited to our taste, but it depends on everyone's taste.

The staff at this hotel are really amazing. The front desk is so helpful. The hotel is very conveniently located near blue mosque and Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. Our room wasn't the cleanest and there was mold growing in the caulk and grout in the shower. Also, and there's nothing the hotel can do about this, but I wish I had known how noisy the street was going to be. Sultanahmet is loud generally, but this street is particularly loud. The nearby businesses don't stop blaring music until 2am.

The property is clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food at the cafe is excellent and its three blocks downhill from Sultanhamett square and the Blue Mosque and Aya Sophia. I have stayed at the Senatus twice now and will stay there again if and when I go back.

The location was close to where we wanted to be. There were numerous dining and shopping options within a few minute walk. The area appeared very safe and the staff were very friendly. A few minor areas of concern. The bed was extremely soft which may be an issue for a few people. The TV had hundreds of stations that the hotel did not pay for access and there were only 2 viewable in English, one of which was an Japanese lifestyle station. Our bathroom towelbar was falling off wall. Overall the lack of TV and the towel rack were minor and the comfort of the soft bed was subjective. It still was a great location and the staff were helpful when asked any questions or local advice. The minor issues would not prevent me from staying there again.
