“Great location, I always prefer this area when I visit Istanbul, few meters away from Gulhane tram station and all the main sights are close by (Hagia Sofia, Basilica Cistern, Blue Mosque), lots of cafes and restaurants around, the staff made me choose between two rooms. However, none of them had a view, just a view of the wall of the next building, room size is OK, not so spacious not so tight, the room and the bathroom decor are nice, the breakfast was good, lots of varieties to choose from, but actually the breakfast room is in the next building which is their hotel as well, staff were nice and friendly and tried to be helpful as much as they could.”
