“What stands out is its prime Sultanahmet location, a short walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, coupled with the distinct advantage of the Cemberlitas tram station right outside the door. The rooftop terrace elevates the experience, offering memorable views of the city and the Bosphorus. It strikes me as a place prioritizing both location and comfort.”
