This is a family run hotel and the owners and staff are absolutely wonderful to interact with. Amine checked us in and we felt right at home. Paro and Ali were always available to assist and share recommendations. The hotel is walking distance to Topkapi, Aya Sofia and Blue Mosque along plenty of restaurants. We were really happy with our stay and look forward to returning again
