9/10 Wonderful! (1,477 reviews)
Although the hotel is fantastic in terms of location, decor and views, especially from the restaurant, going to breakfast was a real highlight. I had a problem with a light sensor in my room in that it stay on if the aircon was on. If I switched off the a/c then the room was dark but very hot. I didn’t get a good nights sleep. I the front desk twice and spoke to the receptionist in person. Each time they promised to send someone up but they didn’t. I was only there three nights so I chose to put up with it as the other factors outweighed the light. Issue. And I would stay there again.

The staff are incredibly helpful and conscientious, speak excellent English and always willing to provide advice. Situates between Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque, the location is hard to beat, especially in the hours when the massive influx of tourists have moved out. Lots of places to eat and just relax after a busy day.
