Locatie, ontbijt en zeer behulpzaam personeel.
Tram vlak langs pand maakt wat lawaai, niet vaak en met oordopjes prima te onderdrukken. Verder zeer verkeersluw.

O hotel tem uma localização perfeita, em frente a Basílica da Cisterna e a Mesquita Santa Sophia. Tudo se faz á pé. O café da manha é maravilhoso. O quarto muito confortável e o ponto alto são os funcionários que são educadíssimos e sempre dispostos a ajudar. Assim que chegamos ( a tarde) , o recepcionista nos deu todas as orientações sobre a cidade, nos mostrando no mapa o que fazer e dando dicas. Recomendavam os restaurantes e faziam as reservas , além de indicar o que pedir do cardápio. Chegaram a nos levar na porta do restaurante que fizeram a reserva, como delicadeza. Como não passa carro na frente do hotel, um dos recepcionistas te espera para ajudar com as malas ( ida e na volta) . Os transfers já sabem disto e se comunicam com o hotel. Amenities da Bvulgari,
nada, tudo perfeito.

Von Mitarbeiter bis Geschäftsführer sind alle super nett, aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns sehr aufgehoben gefühlt. Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral. Wir konnten von unserem Balkon aus die Hagia Sophia sehen. Phantastisch!

The location of the property could not be better. The hotel is literally next to the Hagia Sophia mosque which allowed us to view the mosque at night ( it's open 24 Hours). The hotel staff were very friendly and accomodative. Sedat at the front office was great with his recommendations and the rest of the team also always greeted us with a big warm smile.
nothing really to complain about

Ramazan, (one of the breakfast team) was a particular star, very friendly and very patient when we tried to practice speaking Turkish and all the staff were really friendly and helpful; even coming in the middle of the night to meet our taxi and walk us to the hotel.
The breakfast was absolutely amazing!
A bit more storage space in the bedroom would be helpful such as some drawers or shelves for clothing items as only hanging space available.
There is a definite knack to opening the door to the lovely terrace with an incredible view!

The hotel was modern, clean and located in the perfect spot! Hagia Sophia was literally next door. The staff were always on hand to help my elderly parents. Murad, Can and Ramzan were brilliant and respectful. They had an excellent attitude and were always there to welcome us. I am hoping to go back again next year!

The hotel is in a fantastic location in Istanbul, just at the rear of the Sophia mosque. It is convenient for all the major tourist attractions and for getting on to public transport to get to other areas of the city. Istiklal is only 20 minutes away by tram and metro. The staff at the hotel are friendly and welcoming. Sedat, Bilal and all the staff were happy to answer any questions, recommend local restaurants and book taxis etc. It was a very enjoyable stay.
A couple of bits of the hotel decor could do with refreshing.

absolutely everything! location, room and people! Murat and Can were so helpful and accommodating for every need.
