Great hotel! Located in the heart of the Ottoman Empire, most of the attractions are within walking distance. Near the port, tram, metro. You can get anywhere in Istanbul. The staff is amazing, they will always tell you and come to the rescue, our shower was leaking, but the administrator Timur fixed the leak with lightning speed. You can always ask for help with choosing walks and excursions! Rooms are cleaned on demand, everything is clean. The rooms are not large, but in general they are only needed for overnight stays! The rest was wonderful! Every morning for breakfast you go to the upper floor to the terrace, where you can already say "Good morning, Istanbul!" The only point is the breakfasts, the cheeses are all very salty, the assortment is too small in the form of hot dishes. Thank you so much for the rest! çok teşekkür ederim!
The hotel is located in the historical part of the city. I went out, walked for two or three minutes: and here is Gulkhane Park, and next to it is the Sultan Topkapi Palace, a little more - and Hagia Sophia, Sultanahmet Square, and the Blue Mosque open. Nearby there are restaurants with Turkish cuisine, souvenir shops, a tram stop (who needs to go to the other shore of the Golden Horn Bay).
The staff is polite, attentive, there are Russian speakers. We had breakfast (buffet) on the sixth floor, overlooking the quarter. Everything is delicious and fresh. Besides coffee, coffee is weak. It's better to take tea, it's tart and invigorating.
The rooms are good, for the price. But be prepared for the evening noise outside the window (there is no complete sound insulation). However, the key to a good sleep is to walk well during the day. Then no noise is a hindrance.
In general, the main advantage is the convenient location. And there are no special disadvantages.
In general, I liked the hotel, there are rooms with a balcony, the location is convenient (both attractions and public transport stops), the breakfasts are quite good (there are no cereals, if anyone likes them, I do not eat them and their absence did not bother me). At the reception, an iron, scales for luggage and even a film to wrap suitcases are provided on request. The service is excellent, even tea will be offered on the respeshne) many thanks to Timur, the hotel administrator, he speaks excellent Russian, is responsive and very welcoming) for all questions on the subject and off the subject, we went to him) I highly recommend this hotel
