Property has a short distance to the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia Mosque. Great little restaurants up the hill and a short distance from the hotel. Look out for rooftop restaurants as they offer great view of the Blue Mosque. Btw…so does the Hôtel property.

The hotel decor was a little dated, but that was the only complaint. It was on a quiet street, right by all the tourist attractions you'd want without all of the bustle. The staff was incredibly kind. The rooftop bar was really nice. We were unable to make it to the complimentary breakfast.

A blend of the old and the new! Good location in Sultanhamet- close to the major sights but away from hustle of the centre. Near tram stop too and boat pier. Thanks to Merck too on front desk. Lovely roof terrace with amazing views of the blue mosque
