I cannot more highly rate this hotel! I was traveling alone for the first time to Istanbul and just wanted something in this price range walkable close to the city’s main sights with food and conveniences nearby.
I immediately felt comfortable and that was before even a nights stay! The bed here was COMFORTABLE. I’m not kidding I asked to take a picture of the company that makes the mattress and pillows as it was better for my fussy back than my own bed at home!
I also appreciated the simple but “no extra fees” amenities. Tea, kettle, bottled water, and fridge in room. Nice lighting. Clean everything! I had a long day travel before arriving and felt immediately comfortable and at home.
The location is also very convenient. Just around the corner from the Sophia and Blue Mosque, but off the Main Street with its shops and restaurants and convenience stores. The perfect combo. I fell asleep early and well to evening prayers from the mosque each evening, well fed on hot food from just around the corner.
All this, for a great price!
Truly, this will be the place I stay next time I come to Istanbul. My only regret is not getting the name of the overnight staffer who helped me a few times during my stay. (I hope you get your binoculars back!)
