Five-Star Personnel
Reviewers have nought but praise for the stupendous staff that go to great lengths to accommodate guests. Prompt to reply to pre-check-in emails, bilingual owners also arrange for airport transfers and spectacular sightseeing trips. Management are on hand at all times to take care of the smallest need.

Steeped in the Past
First-timers to the city find this to be the perfect jumping off point for taking in its abundant sights. Walk easily to such historic locations as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia Bascilica, or take a slightly longer stroll to Topkapi Palace and the Grand Bazaar.

Remarkable Rooms
While rooms here are not the most spacious, they are spotlessly clean and spectacularly comfortable. Guests find them laden with amenities normally associated with five-star establishments, and report having an outstanding night’s rest on sumptuous mattresses. Rooms with romantic city views are especially recommended.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Cosy Accommodations
The only consistent comment that could be considered a criticism concerns room size. Some comments suggest that accommodations are a little snug, and guests arriving with loads of luggage can struggle for storage space. Experiences here are so good, however, that come check out, this gripe is long-forgotten.
negative:
Rare Grumbles
Critical comments pertaining to this establishment are almost non-existent. From time to time, guests have had issues with loud cisterns in bathrooms, and oddly placed power points in rooms. Travelling trios who have to use the extra bed have found this mattress to be a little uncomfortable.
