where to start....10/10 location. couldnt ask for a better location. no slopes and you can walk to Tophane station in 3 min. from there you can take tram to Karakoy and then from there Finikler to Istaklal cad. one end or from Tophane to Kabatas and then Finikler (tunnel train) to Taksim square (other side of istaklal. you can also take Tophane to any of the stations to Sultanahmet, Eminonu or Kapali charsi. Best of all the location of hotel is on a very quiet street so absolutely no noise except for sound of prayer in early morning because mosque is very near. The room.was very big and beds were very very comfortable. best of all the lifesaver was the elevator. Staff very very helpful as they helped with stroller everyday on entrance stairs and bags coming and leaving hotel. When we asked for new bedsheets and pillows, iron and blankets they gave immediately. windows opened so lots of fresh air. room was very nice and bright.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was very comfortable, clean, and well-appointed, making it a perfect retreat after a long day. The service was exceptional, and I would like to extend a special thank you to Emre, Erne, and Tolga, who went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and well taken care of. Their attentiveness and support truly made our stay memorable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant and hassle-free experience!

We chose this apartment because of its amazing price. Despite being quite affordable, the location was very convenient for us, with the downtown area easily accessible by foot or by bus. The apartment met our expectations - simple but sufficient for our needs. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option close to the city, this is a solid pick.

Location is perfect, a 10-15 min walk to Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, a 30 min walk to the Grand Bazaar. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around, lots of markets for food and drinks or souvenirs (they are a lot cheaper here than at the bazaar btw). Easy to get a taxi if you need it. Good Turkish breakfast was included.
