Room were good size however bathroom were slightly on the small size. Breakfast could do with a little bit more choice. The reception staff were great and helpful.
Location is slightly hidden so better directions to get to it would be helpful

Did not view from the balcony this time , but was good on our last visit , will try and view again on our stay on the 25/26Oct .The hotel is positioned so well to see the main sites and only a short walk with cafes , shops , restaurants close by
If you have limited time in Istanbul and need a clean, friendly place to stay choose this hotel. Rooms are clean, staff if helpful, super safe, close to all the sights & has an amazing terrace!
Room was great, breakfast is good and service without flaw but you really want to go there for the location and rooftop terrace. 3 minutes of walking from Sultanahmet and lot of restaurants. View from the rooftop is stunning and it is great to watch sunset from there. Also plenty of cute cats all around.
We had a lovely stay at the hotel, the staff were very friendly and we had everything we needed. We would be happy to stay there again, great location and walkable to everything we needed!

House kind of feeling atmosphere, very nice location close to the major sightseeing objects.
Friendly helpful staff. Lovely roof terrace with view of the sea of Mamara. We went there to eat our great hotel breakfast 5-6 cute cats run around. Very close to Sultanamet hippodrome and the Blue Mosque. Quiet at night, so overall a great place to stay. Can highly recommend.
Absolutely loved this hotel. Lovely room- we had a standard double. Clean, great breaiabd friendly staff. No negative points at all. Very near all the attractions and reasonably priced restaurants on the doorstep. We particularly liked the Pasta and pizza place-Ozi's. Lovely root top terrace to relax on too.
