Excellent stay, convenient location walkable to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Arasta Bazaar and lots of shops/restaurants. Grand Bazaar was 16 mins walk away. We would explore the city and come back in the afternoon to rest as it was so nearby. Great views from the breakfast terrace and staff very friendly. Only downsides were it was a bit noisy from the street outside and the prayer calls from the mosques, breakfast was same everyday and not enough cupboard space in the room. But I would happily stay again for the location and convenience

No way a 4 star hotel.
First issue i faced was that the hotel told me on arrival that the breakfast was not included. It took me a while to resolve the issue after showing the receipt i had. Small thing, but appreciate if they put a tooothpaste. Also, the most annoying thing was that the taxis were not allowed to enter the street where the hotel is. So had to drag all my bags uphill to the hotel. Finally, all the tours arranged by the hotel were very poor. Guide can hardly speak English.

Room not as pictured
The rooms and bathroom were not what the picture is shown here. The shower had a broken handle and very very small shower space. We chose this hotel because it had an elevator however the room we got did not have an elevator so our 2 elderly persons in our group struggled to go up and down everyday. If you are a light sleeper this hotel is not for you as the daily prayers at night is LOUD. Breakfast was good. Rooftop view is beautiful. Did not like the receptionist guy asking where we are originally from and pushing us tour packages. The lady receptionist is very nice and kind.
