We really enjoyed staying here, and the breakfast was truly amazing. Everything was easy and efficient. My only caveat is that the rooms / views really do not live up to the photos, as the place is a bit dated - not really elegant as the pics seem. Also, the pricing on line is crazy - varies wildly from $115 a night to $800 a night, with terms like VIP and special class used randomly. But, all in all a great place to stay.

Staff was wonderful - Had a regular room with double bed - Way to small for an American couple I went down next morning and asked for two twins and they gave us a room with a king and a twin. I should have booked that in the first place. Location is perfect - 5-6 mins to everything major We were only there for 3 nights Perfect for us Breakfast was plenty and has beautiful view of water

This is a beautiful hotel right in the centre of Istanbul, all the main tourist areas are no more than a 30min walk. The staff at the hotel were lovely and the breakfast at the hotel was superb. Reception staff were also very helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. One comment I would make is the reception area is lovely but is totally underutilised, there was a bar in the corner but it was never open. Therefore that area was a little soul less.
