Great location. Murad is a great lad, he allowed us to check in early and helped us find a taxi for our transfer. I’d suggest Gritti Pera to work on their breakfast.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (570 reviews)

Good friendly staff, clean modern rooms, great location but the central AC was off (1st week of November) which was uncomfortable for us as had to leave window open which lead to excessive traffic noise and the odd mosquito.

Popular places to visit

Fountain of Sultan Ahmed III

Fountain of Sultan Ahmed III is just one of the places to see in Istanbul, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Stroll along the area's seaside or experience its acclaimed art scene.

Hagia Sophia

Once a church, then a Byzantine cathedral, later a mosque and now a monument, this iconic building is a national treasure.

Hagia Irene

You can study the exhibits at Hagia Irene, a museum with a storied past, during your trip to Istanbul. Discover the area's acclaimed art scene and shops.

Basilica Cistern

The “Sunken Palace” is one of the most striking remnants of Byzantine Constantinople and is the largest of hundreds of ancient underground reservoirs in Istanbul.

Yeah!! Even I think the same - this place might be an inspiration for the "Hall of Faces"....we see in that famous HBO series.
