Great location and friendly staff

This place is in a fantastic location! You can easily walk to all the main attractions in the city centre. There are loads of great restaurants and bars nearby, which means it can get a bit lively and hard to get a good night’s sleep (especially on a Saturday night). Nonetheless, the hotel has a lovely rooftop with stunning views of the city and the Galata Tower. The breakfast (8:00 am to 10:30 am) changes every day, so you get to try different Turkish flavours. I wish they had some international options too, though. The staff were super friendly and attentive, and they made us feel right at home. There’s always someone to greet you at the door and to offer you local tips.

The room was clean and functional and the service was attentive and polite. The breakfast rather mediocre. The real problem was the unbearable street noise. Make sure you secure a room in the highest possible floor.

Genel Değerlendirme

Bu oteli özel yapan şey çok tarihi bir mekanda bulunması, ve aynı zamanda nezih ve çok sessiz olması. Temizlik, kahvaltı, hizmet, ve sessizlik olarak gayet iyi ama keşke odalar daha sıcak olsaydı. Gece üşüyerek uyandım. Klima tek bir bölgeyi ısıtıyor. Bir de temizlik görevlileri koridorda çok konuşuyor. Ama onun dışında, genel olarak nezih, sakin, ve klas bir yer. Otel görevlileri de yardımcı ve saygılı. Öneririm.
