Very good

The receptionists were very kind and hospitable especially Selcuk. He made me feel welcome at the hotel and provided good guidance to me. Being my 1st time in Istanbul, this was really helpful. The hotel is a walking distance to Hagia Sofia and Grand Bazaar. I will recommend hotel due to proximity to the local attractions
We had a fabulous family stay at the Lapis Inn. We had a spacious family room which was cleaned daily and fresh water bottles added every day. The views from the terrace are amazing and the surrounding historical sites within easy walking distance. The area is full of restaurants and shops. Breakfast choice was brilliant with eggs cooked to order perfectly (thanks chef!). The staff were excellent - all friendly and welcoming. Fully recommended.
Everything was perfect !
The location was great ! Right on the best street with the blue mosque and Hagia Sofia 1 min walk away !
Rashid was really helpful at reception and so we’re the rest of the hotel staff.
Breakfast on the 5th floor had amazing views !
The terrace is a really nice place to relax and take in the views.
Loads of food places right on your doorstep as well!
Will definitely be staying again !
