Very aesthetic and very chic hotel. Loved their breakfast variety. Staff is extremely cooperative and caring. Our primary host was Omer Bey at the front reception and he was one of a kind - made excellent recommendations on dining options and went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay in Istanbul. The hotel was very clean and the room with the terrace has amazing views. Thanks Room Mate Emir and thanks Omer for making our vacation memorable!

Room facing street

I would not recommend having a room facing the street due to poor sound insulation thus you can be disturbed by traffic and other noise.
