Overall, the stay was fine. The room was clean, the breakfast was good, and the staff were helpful. However, the room service was disappointing. The room wasn’t always cleaned thoroughly. Sometimes the bed sheets weren’t changed and the pillows were simply rearranged. The hair dryer also produced smoke, and instead of shampoo, hand soap was provided. So while the room itself was acceptable, the service and amenities were below expectations.

The room was clean, but the location was not as advertised. It took about 25 minutes to walk to Taksim Square, not the short distance described in the listing. Also, the reception staff was not very welcoming and asked for additional money, which was unexpected and disappointing. Overall, my experience did not match the expectations created by the listing.

We stayed there two times. We enjoyed everything about the place, proximity to places, breakfast, shower, room size etc.

Nice clean place. Smoke scent free. Nice breakfast and location (walking distance to the port. Great place for the price. Only issue is that there was no sign on the building to indicate its location. It was affiliated with the building across the street for registration but it had a different name.

The staff was always helpful, the room was clean and comfortable. A great location and walking everywhere was a breeze.

This is a boutique hotel, not a large hotel, so keep that in mind. The location is excellent, right in the heart of the tourist area, with Istiklal Street and Taksim Square just behind the hotel. Be prepared for steep hills, but that's part of Istanbul! The city is full of beautiful cobblestone streets. There are plenty of restaurants, cafés, and grocery stores nearby. Just a few streets away is the beautiful Bosphorus waterfront with amazing restaurants and views. I only discovered it on my last day and loved it. I highly recommend this hotel if you want a central location. Just wear comfortable shoes because you'll be walking up and down steep streets. I also joined two tours offered by the hotel. The Old City Tour was excellent, and our guide was amazing. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name. However, I was very disappointed with the Princes' Islands Tour. The guide left us on our own as soon as we arrived on the island, which was difficult because I don't speak Turkish. The tour company was Blue Brothers, and I will be leaving them a separate review. I don’t recommend them at all. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend this hotel

Great location, Clean room, and breakfast was a bonus.

Clean and big room with a big bed, great bathroom, AC, coffee, tea and water. USB on the walls and a great location 2 blocks from the Cruise Port, 5 from the main shopping street, Galata Tower and port shopping center. Complete breakfast and friendly staff. Definitely recommended

Great room. Very clean and new. Very friendly staff and a fantastic breakfast.

The room was clean , friendly staff , very close to other attractions. Breakfast was ok , but maybe more different meat selection, less chicken. All and all I enjoyed the stay ☺️
