The hotel location is in the heart of Taksim square. Easy walking to all the shops and Mosque. The rooms are beautiful, all new and modern. I loved the rain showerhead in the bathroom. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Candan and all the guest services staff helped us plan our days for the best tours, shopping , and restaurants.
