poor soundproofing constant barking

The location was great and the staff were helpful , offering assistance when needed.

I was disappointed by the noise level. The rooms were not soundproofed well , and dogs barking nearby kept me awake at night. I struggled to sleep due to the disturbance.

Awesome Spot Near Everything!

great location buffet breakfast

I booked this hotel after reading reviews. The location is great! It is near Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Basilica Cistern. The tourist spots are outside the hotel. Breakfast has different cheese, orange juice and unlimited coffee. Turkish delights are served in the buffet breakfast.

The air conditioning did not work correctly one night but started by itself after I pressed buttons.

The room was lovely inside. It had a view on the Constantine Column and Blue Mosque. The interior decoration included comfortable bed and shower with great water pressure.

The hotel has a super well position. The view from the room was amazing on the Blue Mosque. The hotel is located directly at Sultanahmet Square and many main tourist attractions are close by.
