Most of the things were very good like the welcoming, most of the staff, breakfast and the team at the restaurant.
But the location was so hard to go up and down over the hill and main street, and the taxi plan was so unprofessional due to service and range they gave me and later it was totally different.
Thank you

Comfortable hotel in a fantastic location. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the breakfast and reception team were really helpful

Nice sized room with comfortable bed cleaned daily. Staff really helpful and friendly who drove us to the taxi rank when we were leaving as traffic was unable to stop outside…because we were a stone’s throw from the Hagia Sofia!! So well positioned for that and all the other main attractions. Would definitely recommend and will return in the future.

My Wife, who is mobility impaired, and I just spent six nights at this hotel. The staff could have not been more accommodating. They took us back and forth to all of the Mosques, museums, restaurants, shops, parking garages in their golf cart. They arranged excursions, which were perfect. Hotel standards, including food, were top level. They checked on us constantly. Location was perfect. Our thanks to this very professional staff and management.

The hotel staff was extremely hospitable, friendly and nice. They also were a great assistance in arranging a very early transportation from Istanbul hotel ottoman to the airport for a flight to Sofia Bulgaria and did a wonderful job including packing me a lunch since I would miss breakfast that day. I really appreciate the support and I think this is a great place to stay.
