The hotel is nice. Lavish and a bit over the top, service is very good and friendly. The rooms are not all great. Some small some a bit tacky. We ended up with a very spacious and cool room with a round bed. Overall a good stay. Make sure you use the tram just a block away. It makes access... More

We enjoyed 5 wonderful days in the conference room. The staff was more than friendly and even the Internet was stable. The rooms are very good, the breakfast is healthy and delicious. The lively and very Turkish Akdeniz Hatay Sofrani restaurant is across the main road and definitely worth wandering over to as well.

We found this hotel on Voyage Prive - not sure how they had it. It's tucked away a couple of miles from Sultanahmet but the tram stop at Findikzade is only around the corner so an easy ride to all the tourist attractions. It's a small hotel, beautifully furnished and the staff are all very friendly and welcoming.There didn't seem... More

This hotel was very classy and very Turkish so if you want to have a very Turkish experience then this is the place for you. The rooms are wonderful, the service outstanding, the breakfast food was really varied with an array of hot and cold foods. It's a boutique hotel run by a man with years of experience on cruise...

We stayed in the room with hammam. Unfortunately the hammam was cold at first night, and as the central heating was off, the ropm was chilly as well. The hotel öanagement listened to us amd everything was perfect fpr our second night. The room could've been a little more spatious though. The breakfast was good (except the coffee). Overall clean...

I staid in this hotel during my four day visit at Istanbul. We found this hotel with big help from tripadvisor iPhone mobile application. First we had booked Hotel Zurich through booking.com but the busters there told us they don't have free room even we had booking confirmation. However, this hotel was very very very good!
