Guest Reviews
- Clotilde (10/5): - L'emplacement de l'hôtel est parfait.
Les employés ont été très aidants avec nous, pour chacune de nos demandes. On a par exemple pu rester 2 nuits de plus que prévu sans problème.
La chambre était propre, confortable et silencieuse.
Le petit-déjeuner était très bien.
Rien à dire !
- serap (9/5): Schoon, vriendelijk, behulpzaam, rustige ligging ten opzichte van de drukte, omgeving was rustig en vriendelijk - Centrale ligging, vlakbij metrostation marmaray. Personeel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Kamers waren een beetje krap
- Aleksandra (10/5): -
- Necefova (10/5): I sent my mom to stay here and she was very happy 😊 The staff were so kind and helpful, and everything went great. Thank - Great
- Валерія (10/5): Прекрасный отель за свои деньги - Мы приехали в 8 утра, нас сразу заселили, дали номер классом выше. Персонал говорит на русском. Чудесное место расположения, есть рядом транспортная развязка, обменник, сувенирные лавки, кафе социальные и обычные, до парома 10 минут пешком. При этом сам отель на тихой улице без уличного шума, буквально за углом от всех оживленных улиц.Все достопримечательности в пешей доступности. Номера убирали каждый день, меняли полотенца, постель. Мы были в конце апреля, на ночь включали отопление. Все просьбы удовлетворяли сразу. Мы просили дополнительное одеяло так как любим спать под разными. Помогли нам разобраться с транспортом. Есть кухня с доступом круглосуточно там можно попить чай (всегда в доступе) кофе, сахар. Утром завтрак по принципу шведской линии. Рядом отели в разы дороже, на той же улице. Впечатления очень хорошие, вернулась бы сюда еще много раз Все понравилось
- Mateo (10/5): -
- Munkhbayar (10/5): -
- Dikanbay (10/5): - Мы были в отеле в начале апреле с мужем. Местоположение самое удобное, все достопримечательности близко расположены, персонал очень вежливые и отзывчивые, всегда готовы помочь. Номера чистые без запаха, каждый день делали уборку, завтраки отменные👍
- Zoltán (2/5): - location was acceptable Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to submit a formal complaint regarding our recent stay at your hotel.
The rooms we received were absolutely not the rooms we booked based on the photographs and description shown on Booking.com. The accommodation we were given was nowhere near in line with what was advertised on the platform. This is a serious issue, as the actual condition and standard of the rooms did not match the listing at all.
Instead of the rooms presented in the Booking.com photos, we were placed in basement-level rooms, one of which did not even have a window. This is completely unacceptable and highly misleading.
In addition, one of the radiators leaked water, which soaked and damaged our clothes. This caused major inconvenience and distress during our stay.
We reported these problems to the reception and clearly asked to be moved to a room that matched the one we had originally booked based on the Booking.com listing. However, this was never resolved. We were repeatedly told to wait until the next day, and each day we were given the same excuse and false promises, with no actual solution provided.
Under these circumstances, we believe the service provided was fundamentally different from what was sold to us. For this reason, we are requesting a full refund for the stay.
Please treat this matter seriously and confirm as soon as possible how and when the full refund will be processed.
We look forward to your prompt response.
Best regards,
Péter Zöllner
- Gulshat (8/5): Отель за свои деньги просто отличный. Удобная локация, все рядом. - Персонал всегда готов помочь
- Guillaume (6/5): -
- Laura (8/5): - La Ubicación. En una calle apartada sin ruidos de coches ni personas, muy tranquila, pero cerca de todo. Mi habitación estaba justo debajo del comedor. A partir de las 8.30am cuando empieza el desayuno, había mucho ruido de sillas.
El colchon desgastado y algo blando. Me dolió la espalda.
Las cortinas no cubren toda la ventana
- kozimo (8/5): -
- Bouchra (7/5): -
- Milica (6/5): - Location is good very close walking distance to the main attractions, metro and boat dock so it’s very easy to move around. The hotel is old it needs renovation. Floor is separated and creaking, mold in the corners of bathroom, shower cabin very old like it’s gonna fall off. The worst thing of all is breakfast there are very small selection and every single day is the same so i was left hungry.
- Julijana (5/5): -
- Khan (10/5): -
- glen (8/5): Value in a central location - Room was value for money and literally just around the corner from everything you'd love to experience in an older section of central Istanbul. Bathroom ceiling shows signs of mould
- shaima (1/5): - الفندق قديم المصعد صغير جدا الإفطار بسيط لاتوجد غلاية وعلب مويا في الغرفة الموقع على طلعة متعب جدا الفندق قديم لن اكرر الزيارة أبدا الغرف لايوجد فيها ماء في الغرف للشرب الإفطار قليل جدا قديم الفندق

- Регина (8/5): - Отличный вариант для переночевать одну ночь. Завтраки не пробовали. Отель находится рядом с метро и достопримечательностями. Персонал говорит по-русски.

- Akberen (8/5): -
- Herolinda (6/5): -

Schimmel in den Ecken, am Fenster und in der Dusche.
- Bekir (7/5): -
- Nurzhan (10/5): - Проживал в отеле 4 дня — остались только приятные впечатления! 🏨
Очень уютный номер, чисто, тихо, всё необходимое было под рукой.
Завтраки вкусные и разнообразные — свежие продукты, турецкий чай.
Персонал доброжелательный, всегда помогали с любыми вопросами.
Расположение удобное — рядом кафе, остановки и достопримечательности.
Рекомендую этот отель всем, кто ищет комфорт и приятную атмосферу в Стамбуле! 🌟
- Viktor (9/5): - Оптимально розташований готель. Зручно і недорого.
Персонал ввічливий, коректний, завжди готовий дати поради і консультації. Клієнти готеля з сусідніх номерів, що входили ввечері на перекур на пожежні сходи.
- Jargalsaikhan (10/5): -
- alexermakov (8/5): -
- Muhammet (3/5): - Konumu Çok eski
- perez toribio (1/5): - La ubicación Llegamos el jueves 27 ,y me dieron la habitación en un sotano, les pregunte si podrían cambiarme de habitación aunque tuviera un suplemento y me dijeron que no, el viernes limpiaron la habitación y me dejaron solo dos toallas, y me vine el lunes y no volvieron a limpiarla, osea nos tuvimos que habiar con las dos toallas todos lo dias que estuvimos allí, el desayuno pésimo ni un solo dulce, cosa que en las fotos del hotel si los habia, no lo recomendaria para nada
- Muhammad Nadeem (7/5): It was good experience to stay at this hotel - Staff is cooperative Location is perfect
- Florean (9/5): - Good and quite location with friendly staff. Breakfast is okay, that is served in the rooftop with a view to the city.

- Юля (10/5): Отель действительно соответствует всем хорошим отзывам. Очень отзывчивый персонал, на рецепшен говорят на русском, помог - Чистота, месторасположение, завтраки
- Teodora (6/5): Central location but very worn-out - Quiet place but IF windows closed. Very central location, comfortable bed, room cleaned and towels changed every day, average breakfast same each morning. Very very worn-out place,need renovation. Place for breakfast very small, don't know how it is if hotel at full capacity.
- Mounira (6/5): Passable -
- Hlwan (9/5): Good experience - All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We arranged airport pick up service through them and they were really excellent and gave good instructions on meeting point. Breakfast was nice. The location is great. Very close to some good eating places, historic places are all within walking distance.
- Erkan (9/5): Merci pour tout - Pratique
Le lieu est tres intéressant
Personnel accueillant Espace un peu restreint
- Deltina (10/5): It was perfect location, and comfortable. - The hotel was near the center, it was really is to get there. The room was very clean and useful, it has mirrors, really enough to get ready. And not to forget about the climate, everything worked perfectly.Breakfast also was really good, and the staff was kind.
- Coskun (8/5): - Vlak bij belangrijke plekken ,rustige straat,vriendelijke behulpzame personeel,redelijk goede ontbijt Als je met de auto bent dan heb je wel parkeer probleem.10 uur tot 20.00 uur mag je niet in de straat parkeren bij hotel dus je moet een parkeer garage zoeken

- ReiseAmor (10/5): -
- Daniela (10/5): -
- gokay (10/5): - Perfect location. So nice staff, very helpful.
- Valeriano (8/5): - El desayuno muy bien .
Buenas vistas desde el comedor.
- Tatyana (6/5): - Розташування чудове, близько станції Серкежі. Сніданок одноманітний кожного дня. Не було фруктів, води на сніданку. У їдальні тарілки не прибирали вчасно, тому не було де сісти. Після прибирання виявили волосся в умивальнику, що було не приємно.
- Lubomir (8/5): - Páči sa mi poloha Hotela.Je to vsadial blízko tam kde potrebujem Nemám čo sa mi nepáčilo. Snáď len pred Hotelom mi chýbal aspon stôl a stoličky si večer sadnúť dat si cigaretu, prípadne kávu ked pridete unaveny z mesta.Ale naozaj len večer a vonku je v lete teplo.Skor to píšem ako radu.
- Omar (10/5): -
- Sally (4/5): A place to lay your head - It’s location was great We were lucky we weren’t in the basement 😅 We ended up on the ground floor. There were birds squawking for most of the night. The roof top bar with its great view was the hotels only good feature. It’s a place to lay your head for the night. The reception & its people were really lovely
- Lom (10/5): Kind and helpful staff, great location close to all the atractions - Great value for money, great location, room was great same as pictures, staff was really helpful and kind Everything was great
- Tamás (10/5): Very good location, good value for money if you don't want luxury in Istanbul. - We chose the hotel because of its location in the historic city center and its value for money.
The economy room was what we expected. We only went there to sleep, which is exactly what it was for.
The hotel staff were extremely nice and helpful. We were satisfied. The room could use a little renovation and tidying up. But overall it's usable.
- Elena (10/5): We really enjoyed our stay in Istambul and the hotel played a major part. We will stay there again. - Location is excellent, really central and close to everything we wanted to visit. Breakfast is very good and a beautiful roof-top view of the city in the morning is such a bonus. Complementary tea and coffee was not expected but was appreciated very much. The staff are all very helpful and kind and would do everyrhing they can for you. The bar seemed well stocked-up but was not open which was a shame.
- memet (4/5): - Der Mann an der Rezeption hat wollte mir ein Zimmer im Keller ohne Fenster andrehen angeblich hätte ich das gebucht!!! Was nicht der Fall war. Auf mein drängen bekam ich das Zimmer welche ich gebucht habe.Einfach unverschämt!! Die Fotos entsprechen nicht dem was im App zusehen ist.Personal im frühstücksraum beschäftigen sich eher mit handys statt mit gästen.
Als viel reisende weiß ich das für 40€ pro Nacht gibt in istanbul viel besseres.
- Evelyn (7/5): Good - Location and the staff Needs work and improvement especially the beds uncomfortable
- Muhammad (1/5): Bad -
- Harshiran (6/5): You get what you pay for - Really good location - close links to public transport to get you from airport & to wherever you want to go. Walking distance to Sultanahmet and Grand Bazaar. Staff were friendly and helpful - thanks for finding our fire stick!! Only one iron which is accessible from reception & may be being used by others when you need it.
- Bowo (8/5): Very good -
- Fawaz (3/5): Poor -
- Taylor (9/5): It was quite and nice - The breakfast bar
- Angela (8/5): Very good - Staff were excellent Shower
- Alejandro (2/5): Chose elsewhere, lot of places in the center in much better condition for similar price. - Close enough to the centre Very old, they were drilling till 11 pm at night. The room looked someone else was on the bed before I went in. Rather a rolling tower on top of the bed.
Air conditioning wasn’t really working. Breakfast was dole.
- Hammam (5/5): Passable -
- Soran (8/5): Very good -

- Besart (8/5): Very good -
- Roobina (7/5): Good -
- Vedad (4/5): Disappointing -
- Evelyn (8/5): Very good - location perfect..stafff
- Vrinda (7/5): Good -
- khanh (4/5): - Staff is friendly. Close to restaurants and cafes.
- Trim (10/5): Exceptional -
- Wajeeh (5/5): Passable - I asked a water bottle at 11pm and they were not able to provide me a simple bottle of water in a 4 star hotel and told me to go to bar, i went there and it was closed.
- Doru (10/5): unforgettable - the hotel is very well positioned, many tourist attractions are nearby and the staff was extraordinary
- Aidana (10/5): Great value for the money. - The hotel is very nicely located and close to Ernest attractions of Sultanahmet area. Breakfast is decent, there is an elevator and lovely hosts 🥰 -
- Elmajdouli (5/5): this hotel could offer a better experience by having newer equipment and focusing more on the cleaningness and hospitali - The location of this hotel was great and close to sirkeci, eminonu, sultanahmet area and the egyptian bazar.
The guys at the reception were helpful and always available - The cleaning is only done to a bare minumum level, despite the cleaning lady passing everyday she leaves so many places dusty and not clean.
- The woman responsible for the breakfast and the cafeteria had a very unwelcoming behavior, many of the dishes were empty and drinking cups were unavailable and yet she was having breakfast and having whatsapp videos like no one exists on the room. I tolerated all the other downsides of this hotel but this lady had insufferable behavior. She should really reconsider her behavior, I might even advice the hotel owner to replace her with a more welcoming and warmer staff.
- The equipment was very old and dirty especially the mini fridges, a person that stayed with us had her bed broken, but they were kind enough to move her to a new room.
- There were bed bugs, spiders and geckos on the room.
- Anonymous (6/5): Pleasant - It wasn’t the same as pictures they provide in the booking.com Most of the things wasn’t in a good condition
- Chiara (8/5): Very good - Excellent location
- Vic-junior (8/5): Very good - The room was spacious, had good lighting which is amazing and the room was recently painted. The location is great. In close proximity to main attractions. Wifi was fast My bathroom ceiling had black mold which was not pleasing to the eye. I wish the staff could speak English a little bit, because there was a communication barrier
- David (10/5): Exceptional - On arrival provided with a city map and locations of everything explained
Mattress what thick and comfy I was very happy with my stay no complaints
- Mostafa (3/5): Poor - The location is very close to attractions and staff are very friendly The rooms are very narrow and breakfast area is very narrow as well and smelly with limited food variety
- Jannigje Neeltje (10/5): - Zeer prettig en centraal no-nonsense hotel met fantastisch ontbijt! Aanrader.
- Dragoș (7/5): Good -
- Mohamad (9/5): i would recommend for this hotel stay, and i will come back again. - location: very close to Sirkeci by walking, close to caffe bar restaurants. walking 10min and arriving to other side - SultanAhmet.
room: clean, comfort, good/fast wifi.
staff: very friendly and helping with everything the only thing i can say is that i took a room with no windows- economy room
- Victor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mahomed (4/5): Disappointing -
- Valerie (10/5): The hotel is in a great location in Sultanahmet. I was central to most of the things on my ‘to see’ list. - The staff were really friendly and so helpful. Gokay in particular, thankyou. nothing
