Clean room, perfect stuff to the front desk, BUT!! Big fold-the breakfast at the restarant! He food is poor and didn’t fresh, the workers pour scraps into a dirty bucket, which they drag around the room in front of guests. Did you imagine that??

Disgraceful hotel and Hotels.com didn't help

This hotel doesn't even deserve a 2 star, refused late checkout by one hour although we stayed 16 nights in two rooms, AC was faulty for two days and the did nothing to help, the hotel is old and run down every thing is broken, towels are old torn and dirty, water and coffee first night only, breakfast is poor, lifts are hardly take two persons, no bins in the room, shower tray drain is blocked and water fills the floor of the bathroom, they booked me a taxi to the airport and then changed the price last minute, and the problems go on and on .....

Worst experience ever

It was terrible. I don't know what kind of hotel doesn't serve water. The front desk was rude, other was a their he offered to find us a taxi with extra money so he can put it on his pocket. And at the last floor there was Arab guests fighting, some of them drunk and singing. No respect for other guests. I would never come back again there

The hotel is quite OK; a bit out of the way from the major attraction but still within walking distance. Staff is spotty, some speak English, some don't so requests for room service and other arrangements may or may not get done depending on whom you speak with. Beware of their taxi recommendation that was a rip off!

A hotel with no hospitality

The staff are not friendly at all. I came with my relative who was very ill. They kept us waiting for more than an our and after that we got very small room with three beds. The room was designed to have one queen bed not three single beds. I stayed one night then I moved to another hotel with cheaper price and much better service qualityquality.

Good Location

Had a lovely time in Turkey, but was expecting a lot more from the hotel after seeing pictures on line.

Staff barely speak any English and is very hard to communicate and were very unhelpful.

Felt quite ripped off on the day of check out where i clearly told the staff i was waiting for my airport transfer and he went ahead and got me a taxi and i thought it was my transfer only to be told at the airport by the taxi driver that the hotel had booked him. Loosing out on my transfer and having to pay 50 lira to the driver.

Hotel did not meet North American Standard

Hotel price was high. It should be 3 star hotel. No bath tub, no iron, had two twin beds instead of double which was very inconvenient, they charge for the mini bar, you must check out the hotel right at 12:00 pm. Staff don't understand English especially the girl on duty was rude and loud. Mehmood was great overall. Room was very noisy, next door neighbor was making noises until 4:00 in the morning. I did not use the phone but they told me that they would charge $35 per minute for Canada so be careful. Breakfast was acceptable, 20 minute walk to main tourist area. I don't have plan to visit Istanbul again.

Very pleasant small hotel.

Everything worked and did what it was supposed to. Things were clean and well maintained. Location was very central. Breakfast was varied and enjoyable. My room was quiet at night. The bed was comfortable and I slept well every night. I was unable to extend my stay for two extra nights due to the hotel being full but that was only testament to the place being quite popular. I suppose you could find very minor faults if you were sniffy but I stayed 4 nights and was very happy.

Fantastic - Excellent Value for Money!!!

This hotel was excellent in service from beginning to the end of our stay. The staff were welcoming and if we wasn't sure of how to get around the city they always provided us with excellent directions. Breakfast was delightful with a some changes daily to add variety. Our room was clean, towels and linen changed everyday. There was a spa area that we didn't use but looked lovely for some relaxation. The restaurant was open in the evenings for dinner even though there wasn't a lot of choice the price bracket was the same as the local restaurants. Everything touristy was in walking range. The area was open to bargaining in shops which was great they were also as cheap as the grand bazaar than the local high street.

\"A couple's experience\"

We loved the location of the hotel,if you don't mind a bit of a scenic walk,since my fiancee and i both love being active,especially after such a hearty breakfast.We had a great view and a bit more space than the other rooms,although we had to compromise on two single beds being pushed together instead of a double bed,which proved a bit problematic in the end when you are a couple. The breakfast was full and plenty to choose from with the most devine olives and yoghurt. The client services were great,and luckily they could speak fair english.Our rooms were also cleaned everyday with fresh towels and bedding. Our only REAL complaint,was that the carpet in our room was filthy,and we had to ask them twice to clean it,which they did.

Give this one a miss for the price!

Having paid London prices for this hotel, I had high expectations. The reality was very disappointing. Our room, with an extra bed, was so small, there was hardly any room to walk around the 3 beds pushed together, the decor is in need of updating and the breakfast was average. Do not use the hotel Turkish bath as it is much more expensive that other local ones. The only redeeming feature was that it is fairly centrally located for site seeing.

Good value for a nice hotel

Close to most tourist attractions and restaurants, good access to tramways. The hotel was clean (one issue was corrected right away), the breakfast area was pleasant and the food was good. Our suite had a brand-new looking bathroom, while its furniture was comfortable but had a slightly worn out aspect. Overall it was good. The staff was courteous and helpful in giving directions / advice. The hotel has also a nice looking spa area (but we did not have time to use it). The hotel is close to the mosques and as such one can hear the prayers broadcast over the loudspeakers at various times during the day and night hours.
Would have no problem staying there again.

Preis- Leistungsverhältnis war sehr gut, Service der Rezeption sehr gut und zuvorkommend. Frühstück ist reichhaltig, aber gewöhnungsbedürftig.

Das Hotel liegt relativ zentral, direkt neben der Prinzenmoschee. Zu Fuß erreicht man die Hagia Sofia in 20 Minuten, den Basar in 10 Minuten und das Goldene Horn ebenfalls in 15 Minuten.

ruido del ventilador del restaurante (noisy fan)

EL hotel tiene una buena relación precio calidad y está en la zona turístisca y cerca de restaurants y atracciones. Pero tiene un gran problema: los ventiladores del restaurant producen un ruido muy molesto que no deja dormir en las habitaciones que dan al interior. Pedí cambio al día siguiente a una habitación con vista a la calle y ahí no había problemas. This hotel has a big problem: the fan of the restaurant causes a big noise tha doesn't allow you to sleep in interior rooms. Be careful.
