Perfect location to get to the grand bazaar (5min walk) and blue mosque (10 min walk) . The Hotel itself is very clean and staff are very friendly. The breakfast has a great verity of food, tea and juices. Local food places to eat are very reasonably in cost too. Will definitely be our favourite place to stay when coming again.

Great place to stay!

Our stay was very comfortable. My husband and I were celebrating an early wedding anniversary. Everything was very clean. Staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. Housekeeping was exceptional 😃 Great variety in the breakfast meals. Entrance is on the backside. Within walking distance to many sites.

Very clean and friendly staff. Ideal location and only a stone throw away from the Grand Bazaar and the metro link. The rooms are modern in design and there is a safe and a mini bar. There is 24hr front desk and there are plenty of places to eat near by. The staff were accomodating and helpful with local information with regards to shopping, food and transport. The breakfast is moderate but the drinks and food need labels and would benefit from some more variety. It was same every day.

Verified traveler

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Don't book until owner has fixed this

Clogging in the drain and the sink. Couldn't use the sink at all. We had to ask them to clean the room (otherwise it wasn't done). It was not possible to be in the bathroom because it smelled so bad from all the drains, even though they had "solved" the problem with the sink. A smell from the drain through the toilet that made it impossible to be in the bathroom at all. No air conditioning, so very hot and bad air if you don't open the window (and then it makes a lot of noise from the street outside). The breakfast had milk that had been left for a long time without refrigeration and no coffee, we had to go out and buy our own breakfast instead. Meat and diary that had been left without cooling for a long time did not feel healthy. Nice staff the first two days.
