Ambience and location
Nothing
Sehr freundliches Personal.
If you want to be near everything of interest with regards to heritage/ history, then this location is excellent. Tram runs right in front of hotel and station close enough to not make it too busy outside. We enjoyed the breakfast, was convenient to dine in before excursions, thereby not wasting time in the morning. Front Desk staff were very helpful in storting out little things. We would definitely choose to stay here if back in Sultanahmed.
Nothing really to find fault, but because tram line runs in front of hotel, airport transfers or other pickups needs to be a close distance away.
I liked the location, the food, the decor. Most of all the professional and friendly staff that made you feel very welcome
Couldn't pick anything I didnt like because it met all my expectations and exceeded in service
