The hotel was clean and good. However when we entered the hotel we were told our reservation was cancelled and the member of staff told us to get out. We had disabled passengers and this was really unacceptable. This was at 1.00 am and we were all really tired. Eventually we were given the room with no apology from the hotel manager for the inconvenience caused

Great location, nothing special

This hotel is at great location. We had double room, I don't know what was the difference with budget room, I think that there was no difference, only in price. Bathroom was very small, with really really small bath, and shower was fixed on the wall, it's ok if you're small, I'm not, so when I want to was my hair I had to bend down. Room was cold, if you want heating, you have to be in the room, beacuse you need card for electricity, bathroom don't have heating :(. Cleaning lady left window opened every day, so later we didn't let her in the room, beause it's was allready cold and it was no need to leave the window opened in december. The breakfest was ok, it's nessesary to get there at least 1 hour before and, because if you're not you can't find everything. The stuff was very nice and frendly.

Great location

Small room with small bathroom, great location and nice stuff. Heating is working only when you're in the room, beacuse you need card for electricity so in the room is cold, and heating is only for room - bathroom is cold all the time. When you want to take a shower you're really cold, it's ok bathroom if you're small, beacuse shower is fixed, so when I need to wash my hair I have to bend down. We get a bathroom with small bath. Cleaning lady left window open every day, and put heating from 1 on 0, so when we come back in the room it was very cold.

Couldn't ask for more

For a tourist class hotel this one fits the bill perfectly for a city break in Istanbul. Good value, friendly staff, good breakfast with lots of choice. Hotel, rooms and bathrooms very clean and maids in room daily leave it spotless. A short walk to the main tourist sites of the Sultanahmet area, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cisterni and mnay other museums. Close to Sultanahmet tram stop, which is great for getting about the city. Lots of choice of restaurants around hotel, but try to get a bit further out to sample the ones the Turks frequent. We went to a great one in Itfaiye cad. in the Fatih area near the old aquaduct called Sur Okacbasi. Delicious food. Try the Aryan yougurt drink and leave room for the delightful dessert consisting of ice cream baked in a semolina crust. Great value.
