The hotel's cozy and elegant lobby was filled with beautiful antiques and comfortable seating areas, making it a delightful place to relax and read. the accessible location near public transportation and attractions was perfect for senior visitors like myself, allowing for easy exploration of the historical city without much walking.

Would appreciate larger and clearer signs for senior guests.

United Kingdom, August 2023

The hotel's location near Marmaray Sirkeci Station and historical sites is unbeatable. Friendly staff like Ayhan and Mina made the stay pleasant, with many dining options nearby. the room mix-up and unavailability of extra amenities were disappointing. Thankfully, the comfortable bed and helpful atmosphere slightly made up for it.
