Lovely little hotel near everything in the center of Istanbul! Nice staff. Fantastic roof terass which serves as a restaurant in the summer. The interior is beautifully old fashion, furniture and room components of high genuine quality, well taken care of. Breakfast is okay. We didn’t try the restaurant but it looked nice and the meny was rich. A perfect hotel for a city holiday!

This property is close to all places of interest and is very walkable. I like that there is a big open space just outside the building. Breakfast was good. I didn't like how the rooms smell like cigarette smoke even though the facility is smoke free. The hallways on each floor has a particularly strong smell. Additionally, there was not treadmill when the amenity room indicates there would be one.
