Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed there with a toddler and a nine month old baby. They provided a crib. There are lots of dining places and small grocery stores around which made easy to buy dippers and baby food for my baby. They also have babysitting upon request. The lady who does housekeeping is available for babysitting after 3 pm. She watched my 2 kids for 4 hours while me and my husband enjoyed a hamam/SPA. The hotel is small but have an elevator. Veru close to Aya Sofia.

Nice from far but far from nice.
This hotel was a huge disappointment. The description on Hotels.com makes the hotel out to be a small slice of luxury a short walk from the Hagia Sofia and Topkapi Fortress. It is a short walk but it certainly is not luxury. Some points: It started on arrival. I arrived early and asked to leave my bags at reception until I could check in. No problem... Only the receptionist left my bags next to the front door. I asked to move them away and he argued with me, asked me what was valuable. Eventually he moved them away from the front door (that is right on the main street) I purchased a suite with a separate bedroom but was only given a double room with an additional rollaway bed. The afternoon receptionist decided to argue that that the double room was a suite. They did change (after a lot of arguing on the definition of a suite) and in fairness the morning staff were very helpful! Some other things in the room description: Luxury Bedding - ours were worn and even ripped in places. Luxy towels - Ours were old, rough and frayed at the edges. Some were even from different hotels! Luxury bathrobes - we got none even after asking. Luxury toiletries - standard hotel bottles. Spa and Hammam - was out of order and appeared to have been out of order for a while. Soundproofed - We were kept awake until 1 - 2AM by the pub across the street. My smart phone measured this as 45-50 dB everyday work noise. We didn't sleep much. My suggestion - book somewhere else!

Wonderful people at this property. However I would only recommend for young couples without children as it’s a very dense area and busy. Location is more for a younger crowd. However the staff are so amazing and kind. Also very clean.

This hotel is brilliantly located in the old town, everything is walkable and convenient. The staff were very helpful and always friendly, the breakfast was ok, simple but nice. The hotel itself is a bit dated and could do with some modernizing, but worked well for our family as the family suites can accommodate 4 people in two separate rooms.
