This hotel is located in the best location for visiting the sites around Istanbul. Easy walking to must see sites and the metro transit system. The hotel staff and restaurant are fantastic. We noticed many people from outside the hotel using their restaurant. When we come back, we’ll be staying here.

The location is perfect. Close to the main attractions and many restaurants. The staff are superb, the morning staff checked me in early which was very helpful after a long and tiring flight. The evening staff was very helpful and even upgraded my room when I had trouble with the AC. The complimentary breakfast was great too. Highly recommended and I would stay again in this property should I have the chance to be in Istanbul again. Thank you Senatus Hotel.

Rooms were clean and staff was kind and friendly. We took only breakfast and didn't regret that. The buffet was little bit small but in context of breakfast it was fine, moreover it was pretty tasty. The additional pluses were balcony on fifth floor with pleasant view on the street and bathroom, especially hydro massage.

We arrived early at our hotel and the staff were very accommodating. We were hoping to just store our luggage for a few hours while we were sightseeing, but they were actually able to find us a comparable room to the one we had booked and let us check in almost 5 hours early. Buffet breakfast was amazing! Lots of selection.
