Well-organised and adequate rooms, nice decor, very frendly staff. Generally everything was really GOOD, but the bathroom was very small. Delicious breakfast, good service. Relaxed by the pool, it was lovely, especially when the weather was very warm.

Breakfast was excellent, room was welcoming. Booked a room with glorious views. Very pleasant staff who were eager to help. The beach was good. Again, it was at walking distance from sultanahmet district public square and other sights in Istanbul.

We think it's a good base for staying in Istanbul. Room was big as expected. 15 mins walk to the center. Furthermore, we could use free WiFi.

One of the dining options, gulhane sark sofrasi was 5 mins walk away. They had an early check-in. Ideal base for a weekend in Istanbul! Location, easy walk to all attractions.
All good.
