A very nice and quiet hotel a short walk from the main sites in Sultanameth. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the room was comfortable and clean. Finally, the breakfast was amazing. One could almost say that you pay for the breakfast and get the room as a bonus.

Hotel is ideally located in Sultanahmet, so a short walk to most visited sites. Lots of restaurants nearby. Not a chain, so rather an individual property, in a good way. All staff were great, although the breakfast team were especially so, who all seem genuinely pleased to welcome you each morning. The breakfast is also marvellous.
