Hands down the best hotel that we stayed at during our three weeks traveling the country of Turkey. The front desk staff immediately made us feel welcome, preparing tea and treats for us during check in, bringing our bags to the room and even a small gift inside. The room was spacious and my daughter LOVED the traditional Turkish Bath. She didn't want to leave. The rooftop dining was breathtaking at breakfast. The breakfasts were amazing and this was the ONLY place that had a milk alternative for breakfast *hands up!*. It was a 5 star stay - high class service beginning to end. They catered to our two year old and made her stay an entire experience. She got to feed bread to the birds, have her own tea cup, and was spoiled. They also arranged a shuttle to the airport. It's walking distance to all the major sites - two blocks away and actually quiet/private for sleeping. Everything was absolutely perfect. We highly recommend staying here and will send our friends from Canada!

Felt like visiting a Turkish grandma — warm, cozy, and full of charm This hotel stole my heart! It felt less like a hotel and more like visiting a sweet Turkish grandmother. The atmosphere was cozy, warm, and welcoming. The room was small, yes — but it had everything I needed, and I truly enjoyed staying there. There’s a lovely rooftop with a great breakfast and a beautiful view to start the day. Out of the five hotels I stayed at in Istanbul, this one was by far my favorite. Not the fanciest, but definitely the most charming.

A great hotel - highly recommend

Everything about this Turkish styled hotel was great. The staff and breakfast were great. The location was perfect, just a couple of minutes walk from the manic/amazing old town. The terrace was lovely and peaceful at night to relax and look at the blue mosque. Our room was great with a Turkish bath style bathroom. We'd highly recommend

Friendly and hospitable hosts. Walking distance to Sultanhamet Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace and Sultanhamet Square T1 Tram Stop. Truly an authentic and exceptional hotel.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like honored guests rather than just visitors. Their kindness and attention to detail went above and beyond, creating a welcoming atmosphere that stayed with us throughout our stay. The location is fantastic—easy to commute and perfectly placed to explore the city’s rich culture. But what truly sets this hotel apart is its soul. Every corner is thoughtfully decorated to reflect the essence of Istanbul, immersing you in its beauty and charm. It doesn’t feel like a generic tourist hotel—it feels like you’re living a piece of the city’s story. Breakfast was a daily highlight: fresh, flavorful, and served with genuine hospitality. The team consistently added thoughtful touches that made us feel special. If you’re looking for a place that captures the spirit of Istanbul and makes you feel at home, this hotel is an experience you won’t want to miss.
