We had an enjoyable stay at this hotel.The hotel is conveniently located, a close walk to the blue mosque, the grand bazaar, (apart from the fact that taxis are extremely cheap in istanbul, a plus because it is a huge city and unlikely you could be in a great position to have everything close).We found the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful, and for the price of the hotel extremely good value for money. The hotel itself was clean, rooms large, and had a beautiful lobby, a nice little bar and a restaurant if you decide to eat in. Overall a great stay at a great hotel with fantastic staff!
