While our room was being prepared (we arrived at 10:30 am) Kadir lined up a fantastic tour guide to give us a private eight hour tour of the main sites... More

This is the 3rd time I have stayed at this little gem. It's tucked on a little side street 5 minutes from the tram and walking distance to everything. Rooms are modern, clean, simple and elegant. I will stay with them whenever I am in Istanbul. The staff is wonderful. Kadir and Isa and the staff are consistently helpful. A++++

When we arrived we went upstairs to have a snack an see the view! We were blown away, it was so beautiful to see the Haga Sophia so close! We enjoyed our stay here! Nice service, and great location, we could walk to many of the main sights. We also loved the cruise on the Bosphorus!
