missingWrote a review on 14 Novstunning viewsfriendly staffvaried breakfastbothersome noise
Had an amazing time with friends! We walked around the Golden Horn with stunning views of Galata Tower and enjoyed a unique dining experience at a local partner's restaurant. The location is perfect, just steps away from public transport. The staff was friendly, and the breakfast options varied daily. Don't miss the beautiful rooftop view during breakfast!
However, we were disappointed with the soundproofing. Our room was too close to the elevator, and the noise was bothersome at night. It would be great if the hotel could improve this aspect.

We had an awesome time enjoying the delicious breakfast each morning and relaxing in the cozy lounge area after a day of exploring. The only small hiccup was that we had to ask for more towels on our second day, but it didn't dampen our stay at all. Definitely recommend checking out the local sights. you won't regret it! 😊

The location was fantastic, right next to the tram station, making it easy to explore many attractions. The staff were very attentive and helpful, particularly Driele in the restaurant, who always greeted us with a smile.

I stayed in the Deluxe Room for five nights, and it was cozy and well-furnished. The bed was super comfy, and the shower had hot water with good toiletries. Cleanliness was on point, and I even had a nice view from the window. However, the shower pressure was low at times, which was a little annoying. There was also occasional noise from the street, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. Overall, the room felt comfortable and nice for my trip.

Request a room away from street noise for a quieter experience, especially if you're sensitive to disturbances.

The breakfast was delightful with a wide variety of options that genuinely satisfied my taste buds, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, especially Onur who went out of his way to help.
