The location is simply ideal for exploring all the key sites in Istanbul, just a short walk away from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, celebrating my son's birthday, and they went above and beyond by decorating our room at no extra charge. The location is exceptional, just a short walk to many restaurants and major attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The rooms were comfortable and daily cleaned, but the hotel does need to improve its advertised star rating as it falls short of expectations in that area.
