    Things I wish I knew before I tried it

    I experienced a lovely stay with excellent breakfast options and attentive staff. The rooms had a modern vibe, but beware of the location. it’s quite a distance from major attractions, necessitating taxis. Also, be prepared for potential housekeeping inconsistencies during your visit. Overall, a great choice despite some hiccups.

    attentive staff
    limited menu

    We absolutely loved the spacious and clean family room! The kids enjoyed the large outdoor pool, and the breakfast spread was a delightful start to each day. The staff, especially Mr Suat, were incredibly attentive and made us feel at home.

    In my wife’s opinion, the restaurant menu could use more family-friendly options.

    delicious breakfast
    friendly staff

    Had an amazing time with friends! We visited the local bazaar and the stunning Blue Mosque, which were both highlights. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. Just a heads-up, the restaurant service can be a bit slow at times, but overall, a fantastic experience we thoroughly enjoyed.

    elegant décor
    spacious common areas
    accessible design
    uncomfortable seating
    lounge area issues

    The hotel's décor was elegant, with beautiful marble accents, creating a luxurious atmosphere. The spacious common areas were easily accessible, making it comfortable for those of us who prefer a little extra room to move around gracefully.

    More comfortable seating in the lounge areas, please.

    impressive fitness center
    spacious common areas
    inconsistent air conditioning
    slow restaurant service

    i recently stayed here for 4 nights, and it really exceeded my previous experiences in istanbul. the breakfast featured fresh pastries and a wide variety of cheeses, making mornings delightful. also, the fitness center was impressive, with top-notch equipment that helped me stay active during my stay.

    the air conditioning was inconsistent.
