Great hotel!!! We booked the ocean view room and it was just perfect. The installation in general it’s very elegant. The place it’s just a few minutes walking to the Hagai Sophia, the blue Mosque, restaurants and many shopping stores. You can’t go wrong choosing this hotel. It was the perfect choice for me!!

Breakfast was okay. Staff gave the impression that requests were a nuisance, which may be a cultural thing. It was recommended that we don't drink the tap water, and most days 4 oz of water was provided and if we needed more, it was available for a fee, not high but much good will could have been earned at little cost to them if it were provided gratis. Cats! If you like cats, Istanbul is the town for you and they wandered through the restaurant, even jumping on the table if you had left to get something. Again, a cultural thing, just something you don't see anywhere else. Bed was not particularly comfortable, I would suggest replacing it. The location is excellent, walkable to the famous mosques and Topkapi palace, right on the waterfront and close to good restaurants.

Don’t park your car here unless you want dents

The reason for the overal poor rating is due to our car having multiple door dents that resulted within the hotel parking grounds. So if you have a nice or newer car with no dents we would not recommend parking here. They need to incorporate valet parking to avoid this. Guests were careless obviously and now repairing the door dents (5 new ones) will cost more than the few days of accommodations. Aside from this disaster the hotel was clean and located in a very walkable spot. Breakfast was good and the service prompt. Beds and room were comfortable and typical of a 4 star rating.

This property is terrible. Have so many issues with the AC. It was extremely hot. Even the outside was cold or some days. The staff also was terrible. They did nothing to help. They would sometimes hang up and would not even try to help the situation. Then the last night one of our lights in the restroom blew off in the whole room didn’t have any electricity. I definitely would not recommend this property. Staff was very unprofessional

The location was good. We were able to walk to many places within 10 minutes. The view of the sea was amazing! The rooms were a good size. The restaurant breakfast was expensive- Twenty Euros a person- so we chose to eat at the local restaurants on the main road overlooking the sea. The front desk staff were not that friendly. They did not give us a warm welcome when we arrived. They didn’t smile, were short with their answers and didn’t look at us while checking in. The door man and the bellhop were very kind and warm with their interactions.

The hotel has a great location overlooking the sea. The staff is friendly. The breakfast is great in general. However, if you’re going to stay multiple days then it becomes repetitive and may consider taking the breakfast elsewhere. When I was booking this hotel, I read some bad reviews related to the air conditioning. I think this must an old problem. The air conditioning is very good now.

Disappointed will not come again

I was really disappointed. Though housekeeping came everyday to clean the room - they never changed the bedsheets - i stayed for a week and that was disgusting. It took me two days to get bathroom slippers none were in the room. No robe was in the room. The bath tub was never cleaned i felt mucky taking a shower. This is not a hotel service worst experience ever. The restaurant desserts were nice, the mains and starters were awful.
