We were a group of 10 friends wanting to enjoy Istanbul and we found on internet this hotel in Taksim square. The location was really good, walking distance from very good restaurants and the tram/metro station gave us good access to visit the Hagia Sofia Museum, the Bazaar, the Blue Mosk, Galata Tower, Galata Bridge and so on. The hotel room was very clean, spacious enough, nice bathroom, nice breakfast, only the wifi was poor and no view but again the location was just great.
