I was hesitant to book here as the reviews were very poor. I only stayed 2 nights as a solo person. But it was fine. Firstly the receptionist gave me a choice of 2 rooms which I appreciated. I chose the second. Although it was smaller, it was padded(not sure of the word I'm looking for) with wood. This gave the room a sense of stillness and comfort. I felt very cocooned. The bed was really really comfortable. There is a lift in the hotel and a kettle in the room. The bathroom door slides but also pivots...I don't think that is meant to happen. The window in the bathroom doesn't close(its a small window, nobody can see inside!) This means that its fine in the summer..however if it was cold in Turkiye this would be a big problem. The hotel is literally next to the train station and Marmary.I don't mean close by..I mean right next to it so it's very convenient. I didn't exprience the breakfast so I can't speak on it. However the area is very expensive so I went elsewhere to eat. The tram line to take you to the main sights of Istanbul is probably a 3 minute walk. All things considered I'd say it's okay for a single person for a few nights

Worst ever experience. Dont book this hotel

Worst stay. We were given a room which was not what we booked in another place not main hotel. The bed we got was not changed as we found hair and used bed. I have asked for change but they didnt change. Istanbul was raining and entrance door was very wet with rain water. The area is so noisy even at night that we couldnt sleep. Worst ever experience

Food poisened

Terrible! We were 2 adults and 3 kids who suffered a severe food poisening that we got in this hotel, without any doubt from the breakfast buffet. Our 4 y/o even had to be admitted in the hospital 2 days later. The breakfast is very poor. The worst is its not chilled and in a very warm eating area, uncovered and the way it looked maybe even re-cooled from day(s) before. The staff is cold and distant and doesnt really make contact, even when you try to. Our room missed many essentials, as a bin, simple hooks to hang your clothing. We traveled with kids but did not receive any extra sheets, they used towels. The bathroom was in bad condition,the bath dark yellow, just too disgusting to even stand in. Honoustly the only good thing was the view of the water and for people who travel by train, it lies literally next to the station entrance. So we recommend the location, but stay away from the food!

Excellent breakfast, in my favourite location, nice staff, cheap taxi to airport. But bathroom corners are not clean with green/black stuff growing. Still OK if you get a cheap price.

Loved Istanbul stay

Love the hotel location. Near all the sites Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, the Spice market, and Grand Bazar. Was also close to port where the cruises to Princes Islands and Bosphoros River tours leave from. Plenty of dinning places really close as well as the metro and trams.

Great location, lovely spot outside to sit and relax and really good breakfast included. The staff were also friendly and helpful. The rooms however needed maintenance, our room had balcony doors that when I tried to open one, it nearly fell into the room and a wobbly toilet seat and lid that wouldn’t stay open. Some power points were also loose and our room had a section of exposed cord coming out from the wall.

Great location, good breakfast, good internet, close to restaurant and main tourist location. Great reception staff. The room was not ready even though I had a late arrival, furniture was broken, toilet was dirty, no safe, no iron. There was no secure luggage storage, they leave guests luggage in the public lobby. In the room you can clearly hear voices from other rooms.
