8.6/10 Excellent! (258 reviews)

The terrace was spectacular and the food at the cafe there was very yummy. The only issue we had was upon arrival at the Galataport terminal we were expecting a transfer to the hotel. I had emailed the hotel months prior to make arrangements and get a quote and then after waiting 40 minutes hailed a quote which charged us 5x what we should've paid and didn't drop us in front of the hotel. We were told on artival they don't do transfers from the port, but i have emails that quote a price. On our morning of departure, after 2 confirmations, front desk called our transfer service to find out they hadn't sent anyone and it was a last minute rush to get out the door. Staff were friendly and apoligetic for the misunderstandings which were probably solely from language barriers. Room was clean. Hotel was half a block from the Blue Mosque!

The property was very clean, room size was great, bed was comfortable etc. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and very friendly - they helped us get around and gave great suggestions. The hotel is also in a great location in walking distance of the main attractions and the tram stop is also close by.
