Excellent Location and Service
prime locationrooftop viewfriendly staff
I appreciated the really good location. It is a short distance to the Hagia Sophia and Grand Bazaar. The main tram lines are just around the corner. This gave easy access to the rest of the city. The rooftop cafe offered complimentary coffee and tea during the day. The terrace presented beautiful views with 24-hour access to tea and coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Mr Issa and Mr Uoger at the reception were particularly attentive. The staff's helpfulness and friendliness really stood out. The views from the terrace are amazing. I also found the breakfast tasty.
