Great room right in the heart of sultanahmet. Comfortable room with ok wifi and private bath. We enjoyed the breakfasts on the rooftop and meals at the cafe out front. Staff were the best! Friendly and helpful.
Excellent location! It did not take long for us to get used to hearing the calls for prayer. However, the trade off was the extraordinary view of the blue mosque and the excellent location relative to all the major sites and the tram to get around to farther ends of the city
Everything was clean, room a little cramp around the bed. Bathroom small, ok for individual, cramp for a couple.
Location was amazing, directly in-front of the blue mosque, had amazing views from our room. It’s a small boutique hotel, 25 rooms. Many local cafes and restaurants.
Low rating due to lack of amenities, it was very basic.
The view at breakfast it worth the stay! the hotel staff was so helpful and accommodating. Would recommend - this location is amazing.

Rooms were superbly kept and clean. Staff is very friendly and cooperative. They helped and guided us booking our tours in all possible ways. One of the best locations, just few minutes away from main attractions in Sultan Ahmet.
Room was very spacious and comfortable. Found the bed a little high to get into but I have short legs. The staff were wonderful. I had trouble with my mobility scooter and they worked on it and were so helpful and kind.
We faced the Blue Mosque and the views were great and it was in a good location.

Right in front of blue mosque and 5 to 10 minutes walk from almost anything. Location wise this would be the best hotel, staff is really nice, area around is expansive, the rooms are a bit on the small size so with kids its a little cramped. Other than that nice and convenient location,
Quaint property with old charm, with good breakfast selection and very kind staff at the Front Desk and Rooftop breakfast restaurant. Ideal for those without fuss seeking a rustic experience but not for those seeking an ultra luxury experience.
The location of this hotel is the very best - right on hippodrome plaza. Our room faced the plaza, across from the blue mosque. The shuttle to and from the airport was great, just bear in mind the shuttle must be paid for in CASH.

Staff very accomodating and gave us the room on arrival at 1130am, even though official check in was at 2pm at no extra charge.
Perfect location for our 1 night stay.
Room was small and cosy enough with a fixed heater /AC unit provided.
Our TV did not receive any channels at all, so small negative here.
The plug socket fittings in the room 25 were loose in some places and need repairing as does the adjustable shower fitting which would not stay in position and just kept falling to the lowest position, but as we were only there for 1night we coped with it.
