My friend and I stayed at this hotel for 5 days. Just as the name states it's located in the old city and within walking distance to everything (shopping centers, restaurants, tramway, etc.). Our room and bathroom were small but the service was excellent. The hotel is not fancy or grand, but it's a good quality/price for the location. Also, the manager Ömer made up for anything the hotel could lack. I often travel and his client service skills are really beyond anything I've seen before; he's usually not there at nights but he stayed back the night before our checkout to say goodbye to us. Breakfast was included in our stay, there weren't many options but the kitchen staff prepared whatever local dish we order in the morning, portions were enough and the food was good too. Know before you go: Bring your own toileteries and towel (I didn't like what was provided but I'm a very picky person); don't hesitate to ask for additional blankets (the one in our room was thin and I'm often chilly) or anything you need the staff is very helpful. Also, the hotel offers tours through different agencies, we did the "luxury dinner on the boat tour" for $50 but it had nothing luxurious and the food was cold and bland; the other tour we went on was very interesting it was €90 ($104 usd) and included visits to the most famous touristic attractions in instanbul, with 3 hours boat ride on the bosphorus and a delicious lunch on the boat (this one was sooo worth it). Overall, I liked my stay there!

My wife, our two children, and I stayed here for a week, and we had a wonderful experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and our room was spotless throughout our stay. We appreciated having hot water available 24/7, which made our stay even more comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was absolutely delicious, offering a great start to our mornings. The property is in a fantastic location, conveniently close to all the major tourist attractions, making it easy to explore the area. Thank you for being such a wonderful host—we truly enjoyed our time here. Much love, and God bless!

Not for single ladies.

Not for single ladies. The young manager feels free to make sexual advances and the other receptionist knows. Sickening. Great service provided to my dad. They made sure he kept a family room for the price of a small one. Astounding lip service paid to my old man. Kind and helpful staff overall. One room I got had a noisy water system in the wall it seems: very loud noise in the morning. Another one had a water temperature hard to adjust but manageable. Great location, view, cheap and practical if you have good legs to walk the short but steep distance to the grand bazaar and very useful tramline 1.

The location and terrace of the hotel were great BUT there are some areas in which it needs to improve. 1. Service: The front desk was always very nice. However, we asked for the room to be cleaned two days in a row and nothing happened. Moreover, the service at breakfast was unfriendly on some of the days, which is why we felt quite unwelcome. Service seamed to be annoyed about the fact that we wanted to have breakfast at 10 AM even though it is available until 11 AM. 2. Cleanliness of the room: When we arrived to the Hotel, there was still some hair in the shower walls and the overall cleanliness was just OK. 3. Shower: When we tried to shower in the morning at 7 AM, but there was no running water at first. After a while there was some water coming out of the shower head but it smelled like it was coming right out of the sewer.
