The location is good, the balcony is nice, but the stairs are a bit narrow

Strengths: the friendly staff; the location. Everything else is poor. Don’t be fooled by the pictures. Once you get there you’ll realize those were enhanced. Try the hotel next door by the same owners: Harmony hotel. Much much better and for a little bit extra.

The staff have been very helpful trying to accommodate out check-in time. Location is the best as well: a 2 min walk from the embankment and 10 min away from all central attractions. However the air conditioning did not work in our room and the staff did not attempt to change the room or fix the aircon. The windows of our room opened onto a construction site where heavy duty machinery were banging on until midnight. Obviously we could not close the windows as the aircon was broken. So check your room! There was no soap in the dispenser and the staff did not once attempt to fill it in until we complained. Breakfast is now is a next building which is a little inconvenient but not a big deal. The breakfast was very tasty and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Overall the staff were trying but something was amiss for our stay.

1. Cozy place with a small bedroom and a sitting room along with a portico that oversees the sea. Gulls regularly visit this place. 2. The views are worth the price. 3. The staff are quite helpful and accommodating. 4. The Turkish breakfast is appetizing 5. The hotel is nearer to almost all attractions.

This is a small hotel situated in a perfect spot in the older area of the city. Its excellent value for money, does a great breakfast and the staff are very helpful. If you want the top floor balcony room, be prepared to walk up 4 flights of stairs. Our room was great, couple of minor issues with fittings but other than that would highly recommend. For all the major attractions it's perfect.

A small family boutique hotel with traditional style. The first impression was great, the receptionist definitely tried to help with everything. The room is cozy, not all new but doesn’t matter. Small details and nice gestures, like the owner making me a cup of coffee to share after checking out, made my experience even better. Feels like home after only a few days! The location is great for all the attractions, 7mins walk from Agia Sofia. Breakfast is simple, not too much variety but in the hotel next door.

Simply beautiful place to stay. The room was spacious, super cosy and clean. The balcony feature was great and the sea views were relaxing. Hosts Kadir and family were incredibly warm and accommodating. Couldn't have stayed at a better place in Istanbul, look forward to visiting again in future. Thank you 😊
