Very nice hotel. Extremely well located, close to İstiklal street, Şişane metro station. Lots of eating places close by. Staff very helpful. I had chosen a superior room which was extremely spacious and comfortable.
My only criticism would be that their breakfast was unremarkable. Having got used to other hotels having a widespread breakfast buffet, the breakfast at this hotel was quite sparse.

We very much enjoyed staying here for the week. It is wonderfully close to the key places we wanted to visit. While it has a whiff of history, being originally an Ottoman mansion, the rooms and facilities are practical, attractive and modern. We were very comfortable, we loved our Turkish-style breakfasts, and the staff were superbly friendly and helpful.

A real gem of a hotel, truly unique and offering something different. I've stayed in many hotels, but I loved this place for its views, internal style, and room layout. We stayed in the loft room, and my daughter loved the split-level design.
