Great Boutique hotel in Great Location
On arrival offered a room with a sea view but advised it was smaller than standard. It did offer a good view and although on the smallish side was good enough for our requirements.
All the staff were really friendly and helpful offering good advice re where to eat and how to get around Istanbul.
Breakfast was ok, not your typical “full enhlish” and was on the top floor with great views. Rambo who organised the breakfast, and made a large omelette on request, is a real character who really looked after the guests.
Location was great as many of the places to visit are close by and only a short walk to a tram stop if going further afield.
Would highly recommend.

My favorite hotel in Turkey!!
This hotel is my absolute favorite! I stay here every time I visit Istanbul! It is located a block from the Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque and Sultanahmet Square in the walled old city. This is a boutique hotel with excellent service. The ownership and staff remain constant and I’m always delighted when they remember me when I return!
If you’re interested in visiting the Grand Bazaar, which is always great fun, it is just two or three stops from where you catch the city train at Sultanahmet Square. The hotel can provide guidance on how and where to purchase a very inexpensive ticket.

I can’t praise this hotel enough. First there is hardly a better location for a tourist in all of Istanbul. It is THE closest hotel to Hagia Sophia (a place that gets huge lines in the day, but I strolled one minute from the hotel in the morning and had Hagia Sophia to myself). Breakfasts are excellent, and they are located on the top floor, with a spectacular view of Hagia Sophia on one side and the Bosphorus on the other. Ramazan (aka Rambo) will cook for you and charm you for every breakfast (something he’s been doing for 27 years). The rest of the staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. My room was a little small, but I got a single, so it was everything I wanted, including a lovely, modern bathroom. They’re also good about arranging day trips that pick you up from the hotel (I went to Troy). All of this at a price that is very reasonable. It’s not often that I gush about a hotel, but this is the perfect choice for a first-time tourist visit to Istanbul.

Just amazing!
A beautiful boutique hotel with the wonderful and friendly staff at the desk and especially at the breakfast (Ramadan/aka Rambo). Great breakfast on the top floor and the hotel is within walking distance to everything! The rooms are too small, but that’s what you expect from an old and historic hotel. A busy area with some noise, but awesome views and we definitely stay here again. Thanks to all the stuff that made our stay enjoyable.

This hotel is a small, hidden gem. The location couldn’t get closer to several of the main sights. The service is extremely personable. Our room was cozy and clean. At breakfast, Rambo is so great! He’ll make you fresh eggs and make you feel so welcomed! Front desk staff is great!

Smallish hotel with compact bedrooms but with fantastic staff and customer service …..the staff could not do enough for us and every single member of staff was absolutely delightful.
The hotel is located within easy walking distance of all the main Istanbul tourist locations and just a few minutes from the boats that tour up and down the Bosporous.
For a short stay in Istanbul the hotel is highly recommended.
