Fantastic hotel, very helpful and friendly staff, ideal location for visitors, very short walk to the cistern, blue mosque etc. very handy for tram stop for going further away too. Superb views from the hotel restaurant although it is a bit pricey to eat there, even for Istanbul prices. Apart from that it really is a superb hotel in a fantastic location!

The location was perfect, The guys at reception were great. The restaurant staff were very average. The breakfast room was very sad. The cleaners did not clean the room well, although the bed was clean. I felt we were an inconvenience. I would not recommend them.

It was very convenient to go everywhere. The staff members were almost nice except some staff. The bed was comfortable. I didn’t have time to use the restaurant, but Ayasofya view was very nice. I wish I had a chance to dine there. They have a lovely cat, she slept on my lap, which was amazing. I want to stay again next time I go to Istanbul.
