The location is great, a quiet street, but super close to the main attractions. The staff is extremely nice and helpful - you can really feel that they are ready to go extra mile for the comfort of the guests. They gave us a lot of tips for places to eat and also presented us with a small cake as it was a birthday of one of the guests. The room is also quite clean and comfortable, the bed was great.

The hotel is close to the main attractions in Istanbul, but in a quite place. Everything was just fine, very polite, kind and helpful staff, comfortable bed, clean, spacious room, good breakfast. As an example, my wife left her cardigan in the airport transfer car, and with the leadership of Fouad the staff could get it back, a special thank to everyone involved in it! We felt that the receptionists, the cleaning team and the personal at the breakfast all worked very hard to make sure we could have a good time!

Everything was perfect. Large, beautiful, clean, and newly renovated rooms. I have nothing to complain about. The hotel’s location is perfect, right across from Galata Port, close to Istiklal and the tram station that goes to Fatih (Grand Bazaar and Mosques). The breakfast was very good, with everything you need (eggs, vegetables, fruits, jams...), and fresh products. The hotel owner is very nice. Parking is available in front of the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel.

    We chose this apartment because of its amazing price. Despite being quite affordable, the location was very convenient for us, with the downtown area easily accessible by foot or by bus. The apartment met our expectations - simple but sufficient for our needs. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option close to the city, this is a solid pick.

    Location is perfect, a 10-15 min walk to Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, a 30 min walk to the Grand Bazaar. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around, lots of markets for food and drinks or souvenirs (they are a lot cheaper here than at the bazaar btw). Easy to get a taxi if you need it. Good Turkish breakfast was included.
