Inexpensive hotel right down the street from the Hagie Sophia. Hotel was clean, breakfast was good, staff was very friendly. At that price point I was expecting less, so I was very happy with this hotel. Would stay here again.

Great Place To Stay.
The only slight complaint that I could have, is that the bed was a bit hard for my taste. But I had the same issue in Athens. So maybe a firmer bed is a thing in this part of the world. But other than that, this place is awesome! Great room with coffee, A/C and refrigerator/mini-bar. A/C worked great. Breakfast was very good. Inside and outside seating for breakfast. (Buffet style) If you chose to eat outside, DON'T leave your plate of food unattended, even for a moment. Those seagulls are not sitting around there for no reason. I found out the hard way! The staff was wonderful. Just nice folks! You will be near all the main tourist attractions. Finally watch some YouTube regarding scammers in Istanbul. I did, and a few of them were tried on me. This place is shopping heaven! The place to buy gold!

Great staff, very friendly and welcoming! Free Tea time from 5-7 pm.
Problem with the AC, you can not change without saying to the staff… they knocked at our door at 1:00 am, waking us up…. to press a button on our ac panel screen…
The ac are not independent in each room…

For parking, you have to leave the car keys to the staff for them to be able to arrange the cars in the parking. Just mentioning to let others know. Overall, the hotel meet my expectations. Definitely recommend. It is also very convenient located, within walking distance to many touristic attractions, close to restaurants and a small convenience store

We booked a triple room for 4 nights at this hotel. We had a comfortable stay, the rooms were clean, beautifully decorated and furnished in neutral colours. The hotel is located on a side street leading to the tram stops. It’s in a convenient location within walking distance to famous land marks of Sultanahmet area, shops and restaurants. The breakfast was enjoyable with a large selection of hot and cold options. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. A big thank you to Suleyman. I would recommend this hotel.

Such a cute room in the heart of Istanbul. It was cozy size but perfect for my solo travel. Rooftop breakfast area was a beautiful view and was delicious. Staff helped me arrange for transportation and having the mini bar was also a nice convenience.

The terrace for breakfast and afternoon tea is wonderful – view of the Zeynep Sultan mosque directly adjoining and the Hagia Sophia behind it. Wonderful place to relax before/after spending time in a busy city. The very friendly staff made me feel very welcome and my stay was especially enjoyable.

Great Service, Comfortable Stay, Close to Sights
We enjoyed our stay. The front desk attendant was very friendly and helpful. He recommended a local restaurant which was a BIG win! Housekeeping did a fantastic job providing a clean room. The breakfast area offers a restful area overlooking Hagia Sofia.

First, we got a smelly room with a broken air conditioning. They supposedly fixed the air conditioning and "open the windows" during the day for the wet smell. The third day we got a second room on the third floor, we discovered they turned off the AC during de day and manipulate the AC thermostat from the lobby. Horrible, the receptionists are rude, and they constantly asked us to wait for the AC technicians to come to fixed the AC. Overall, the property condition does not match the pictures on the Expedia website neither the reviews. We spent 6 nights there and I do not recommend nobody to stay at that hotel.
