“Great place to stay, great value, great staff!”
My husband and I really enjoyed staying here. It's important to know that the hotel is about 1.5 miles or a 20 minute walk from the heart of the Old Town. But, there is a tram stop right in front of the hotel, and it's only 3 stops, or about 7 minutes, to the Blue Mosque, etc. The tram is clean and very easy to use. We loved the hotel and its services. The pool is pretty small, so don't expect to be able to do laps and the gym is small as well and opens late (8:00 a.m.), but it still has the major equipment that you need. The sauna and bath facilities are wonderful, though. The only complaint is that there are not many nice restaurants around the hotel--you need to go to the Old Town or the Galata side for that. Overall, though, it was a great place to stay and the value is excellent!
