"This is a great place to stay in Istanbul. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast had a good variety and was tasty. The location is superb close to all of the major sites in Sultanhamet. The only weakness was that the Wi-Fi blocked my VPN but that is typical of many places in Turkey due to the authoritarian government. Overall I had a great stay and would definitely stay here again."

Location is unmatched, and this hotel is MUCH MUCH better than Sultanhan hotel ( staff, location, amenities, cleanliness)--- Their rates are reasonable for a BETTER hotel than any of the other nearby self-styled " upscale hotels-- including Sultanhan and HagyaSofia mansions )"

"This small and cozy property was tucked in an alley way just behind the Hagia Sophia. The breakfast offered was a pleasant variety. It is a 5-10 minute walk from the grand area of the Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet mosques. There is a small convenience shop just around the corner. It is steps away from the city tram, bus stops, shopping and restaurants. "
