We had to move to this hotel for two night when our flight was suddenly cancelled. Surprisingly it appeared much better as compared to all photos that we saw in web. In fact it is something between guesthouse and hotel. The location is excellent it is right in front of Aya Sophia, there is a terrace with a sea view... More

The room was so small that our luggage was occupying the whole free area of the room (even though we only had one suitcase). Manager/owner was alright - helpful and nice. The location is perfect for sightseeing the historic part of Istanbul. Bathroom is kind of gross but usable. Our room faced the small street where the hotel is located... More

We paid extra for a room which promised a "panoramic" view of the sea. It had some view, but was certainly not "panoramic". In 6 days we had no clean towels. It was difficult to return to our room during the day, as the cleaner needed to access our room to use the power point in our room to vacuum... More

It is a decent place with no unpleasant surprises. The location is very good, the staff is friendly and works hard. The breakfast is decent indeed. You can also have snacks and bottled water during daytime for free. The rooms are smaller than I expected though. They try to keep it clean as well.

This is a great place to stay in istambul. In a quite and lovely neybourhood in sultanhamet, just in front of Little Hagia Sofia. It's a small and cosy hotel with a very nice and helpful owner. I strongly recommend it. Good relation quality-price.
