10/10 Exceptional

GREAT BREAKFAST AND STAFF! Such a good location for tourists as it's in the heart of a bunch of attractions and steps away from the train to go to further locations. The staff were amazing, went out of their way to make sure our stay was great. Would definitely go back to the same hotel next time.

The hotel is a little tired and could do with some TLC. Was a great location ant the staff were great. Breakfast was very good. Hotel was clean. Enjoy our stay. Many thanks
Sarah, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is very central and within walking distance to the tram, shopping and restaurants. The front desk is extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was also good. Hotel, though, needs an upgrade with new carpets and room decor as well as reception area. Else a wonderful stay at the hotel.
Shaida, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

Location is great - walking distance to main attractions. The hotel itself is incredibly dated and is in serious need of being renovated. Anyone with asthma or a dust allergy would struggle. The hotel staff are nice and helpful- no complaints there. It's a shame, as location and staff were great. However based on the hotel itself i would not recommend.

Under average for 50€ per night

Absolutely terrible experience. The room was full of mold and musty wooden smell. It triggered my Asthma. Very small and congested room. The bathroom was not so clean. Had trouble with hot and cold shower. The breakfast was below average for the price. The only positive thing is that it's 7 minutes walk from Sirkeci Marmaray station. I stayed there for only one night
Anwar, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pros- nice location, room was clean, breakfast was decent, stuff helpful. Cons- hotel itself is very outdated. Big part of the Lobby room is dark and filled with stuff. Hotel has an access to the roof with an incredible view, but it is not in use for anything. Needed an iron, got it only on the second day. Water in the shower was not draining. And it is on the street with restaurants, so every night it was very laud from outside till 1-2am. I probably won’t stay here again unless there will be some renovations.
Anastasiya, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Really pretty bad. We had reasonable expectations but this was disgusting. I don't know for sure but I think they may have been overbooked and put us in a room under construction. The bathroom was repulsive. Black mold everywhere. We slept there the first night and when we went to shower the water was pouring directly out on the floor. We called the front desk and they said they would give us a new room later. But we wanted to shower before heading out. They found a room someone had checked out of and we stayed there for the next night. It was an updated room but far from luxury. A little cleaner but I would NOT stay there again.

Wir waren das erste Mal in diesem Hotel und waren sehr zufrieden. Es ist sauber und die Zimmer sehr gemütlich. Das Frühstück war gut und ausreichend. Das Personal war wirklich sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Es liegt sehr zentral und ruhig in einer Seitenstraße. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.
