We used this hotel as our base because it was close to Istanbul airport to access domestic flights to Cappadocia and other cities located far away. Staff were friend and helpful. A few good restaurants in the area. Fast wi fi and amenities were good. This is a new hotel so everything was new and fresh!. We extended our stay here

Great stay here while waiting for our flight home. Management let us store our luggage for a week rather than having to pay high rates to store at airport

Staff went out of their way to help us and treated us like family. Rooms were comfotable and more spacious than your typical hotel. Breakfast included was quite an awesome spread.

Beautiful new hotel – 10 minute drive to Istanbul International Airport. Hotel is new and our room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A little way out from the town centre – you will need to get a taxi. We had a car so it was not an issue. Excellent hotel if you want close access to the airport.
