Review by hotel critic
During my week-long stay in Istanbul, I found a charming spot nestled near iconic landmarks like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The hotel’s blend of traditional decor with modern comforts was evident from the moment I arrived. I appreciated the clean rooms equipped with essentials like a fridge and daily breakfast that offered just the right start to the day. The location made it easy for my family and me to explore the stunning Topkapi Palace, all within walking distance. The staff were accommodating and attentive—especially when it came to offering travel assistance and local advice. My experience was practical and pleasant, making it a sensible choice for those looking to enjoy the rich culture of Istanbul while staying comfortable.
