Fantastic hotel with beautiful views

The hotel and its staff are amazing. They helped with questions and requests with a pleasant manner. The hotel is in a GREAT location. You get beautiful views of the ocean off the deck, the garden out front is relaxing and has the most incredible view of the Blue Mosque in the evenings. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

This hotel has an amazing view of the Blue Mosque especially at night. It also offers very good breakfast at the rooftop with a gorgeous view. However, we find that the receptionist during our stay was not as warm and welcoming considering that he was at the front desk. We stayed at another hotel in Istanbul and we can’t help but compare the excellent customer service we received from our previous hotel.
