They had an issue the first day of our stay, but fixed it right away. Offered us transportation to the airport for the inconvenience. Staff very nice. Best of the hotel is staff and location. Our room was very very small. Worst was breakfast. EXPEDIA, however, sucks.

Very poor

Room was mouldy and damp. Staff were rude and almost offensively unhelpful. Fobbed off when tried to raise concerns about the room. Spa mostly didn’t work- sauna and steam room didn’t work. When discussed with reception was told they did- clearly didn’t as it was around 30 degrees in the sauna and there was no steam or heat in the steam room. Breakfast was poor and basic. When raised further concerns was told by staff that should have complained sooner- we had tried to do but was told to wait until after the weekend morning. The receptionist told us it was not possible to give a refund and then when we asked for the manager. The manager was in a meeting but the receptionist didn’t know where or when they would be back. The receptionist then gave me the number to call and it didn’t connect or ring. The staff told me that it was impossible to give a refund and needed to contact hotels.com. Contacted hotels.com who said that we needed to contact the reception of the hotel. Went round in circles re this for a day. Been promised a partial refund. But yet to hear back from hotels.com if this will actually happen

Extremely helpful guest services staff, especially for someone who didn’t do enough pre trip planning. The only thing that would make it better would be if they had personally experienced more of the tours being promoted. Overall a very enjoyable stay!!!

Nice place to stay in the heart of Sultanahmet

We enjoyed our stay, breakfast was very good and rich, coffee machine, tea etc…staff was professional, hotel close to everything, it was an ideal place to stay. One negative thing is that I booked a room with city view and I got a window facing a wall.

Overall a great stay. The hotel is nice and in a convenience location, staff is helpful and courteous. I didn’t get to use the Hamam and gym but it looked nice. My only complaint is that the blankets on the bed are small so for the double it’s difficult to share.

Exceptional service, such kind staff and cleaners. You’re very well taken care of. Very clean, excellent and safe location a few min walk from the Mosques and bazaar as well as a main strip with restaurants, shops, salons, Shisha lounges etc. definitely try the Ortaklar restaurant across the road it’s amazing especially the hummus! Breakfast could have more variety, rooms are a little small but cosy, gym is basic, and can get noisy as it’s so central. Overall loved the stay though and the benefits far outweigh the criticism.

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Very close to historic old city, main attractions within walking distance, many options for coffee, dining. Just know, standard rooms are pretty small, which is fine if you are coming for just a short visit. We came for 2 weeks and had to upgrade to a larger room. Also know, all rooms have a very small closet and no drawers to put clothes away (we had to use third bed in our room for that), which is ok for a short stay. Bathrooms were kind of small, but comfy with good hot shower, and water pressure, no problems with plumbing at all. Rooms and hotel are pretty clean, and cleaning ladies were wonderful and very sweet! Breakfast buffet was pretty good, nice coffee machine with all different options, eggs, cereal, salads, cheeses and local cold cuts, fruits, breads and pastries, nuts, deserts, juices. Hotel has a small, basic gym, small pool, sauna, and a steam room that we used. Overall, pleasant stay at the hotel, thank you!
