  Istanbul

  22 Sept 2022

  Spent three nights in this beautiful small boutique hotel in the heart of Istanbul with a stunning view of the Galata Tower. Location was lively & away from all the tourist traps! The staff were helpful & accommodating - especially the lovely housekeeper who came in specially to give us an early breakfast on our last morning…oh be pre warned friendly seagull is at hand to entertain during breakfast 🤣Whilst in Istanbul as well as the blue mosque & Hagia Sophia must see are the whirling dervish, Galata views, Dinner & river cruise by night & Basilica Cistern!

  Excellent location

  22 Jul 2022

  A compact hotel with basic amenities. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The location is excellent, very close to Iskitlal, and Taksim, however very peaceful. Neat and clean room which was spacious however drainage of the wash badin wasn’t good as water was seeping on the floor. We needed an extra top sheet which was provided at mid night. Highly recommended in this price category.

  Superb location and good rooms!

  28 Jun 2022

  Excellent location! Walking distance from Taksim square and iskitlal street! It is a small hotel however it has all amenities in the room! Room size was good overlooking galata tower! The hotel doesn’t have a lift whoever the staff was super helpful and moved the luggage (up and down) for us so it was not an issue. We didn’t get breakfast in this hotel since variety isn’t available but since it is right at iskitlal you can easily get breakfast around the hotel! Stay in this hotel is recommended for anyone wanting to stay close to iskitlal within this budget!

  Average place near Taksim

  04 Dec 2021

  The place totally doesn't deserve the rating it has on booking. The place was totally not as expected. The room was super small and it was almost impossible to move in room. There is no 24 hours check in available, infact there isn't even a proper reception desk. I have never seen anyone at the reception my whole stay at the hotel. We arrived late at night and it was closed with a notice saying to call a Turkish number, luckily I got a local sim from airport, otherwise we would have been stuck in front of the door. Anyhow the guy came after 10 mins of call and checked us in. The room was totally not as per our expectations or pictures. It was super small with long bathroom craved out of the same room. Also there is no lift so you have to carry all luggage up and down. The breakfast was also very bland with almost no variety. There was only one type of cheese, burnt pan cakes and 2 jams. One day even Orange ran out. The lady only knows how to make a sunny side up eggs and cannot make any other type. Overall it was a very average stay at Istanbul when I compare it with the rating this hotel has. A rating of 7ish should be fine for this place.

  Great hotel on a budget, great location and lovely staff

  24 May 2021

  If you're looking to stay near the main areas of the city, have access to the public transport, be a few minutes' walk from Taksim Square, have a lovely experience with the staff and you're a bit on a budget, this is the hotel for you.The staff were very helpful and nice, they helped us with getting taxis, things to see and anything we needed. The rooms were clean and cleaned daily, they are nice. They're a bit small, but the value is there. It's a very charming hotel.A few cons:1. No elevator and stairs can be a bit hard to navigate for some people2. The breakfast is a bit simple. You get a nice omelet and have a small choice of sweets and cereal + some drinks. It's not bad, but pretty limited.
