“Hotel Venera Istanbul Old City impresses with its prime location near the Grand Bazaar and easy tram access, although initial room sizes can be tight; the staff, particularly Gûnez and Bulent, swiftly address concerns and provide outstanding service. The rooftop dining offers panoramic Bosphorus views, contrasting with a breakfast buffet that needs improvement. Despite the breakfast shortcomings, I'd still return for the convenient location and excellent service.”
