Adorable boutique hotel with a convenient yet quiet location. Really nice staff, very helpful. The breakfast is SO wonderful (more than you can possibly eat) and they have free afternoon snacks and water.

The patio room was directly by the reception desk so not very private but they offered to upgrade us (and the place was generally quite quiet plus they give earplugs). The rooms are quite stylish and I found the bed comfy (and they provided extra pillows when asked).

Highly recommended for the Sultanahmet area!

If you haven’t booked this amazing boutique hotel yet do it now!

This place is so amazing I booked in for two nights and wish I could’ve stayed 10 the rooms are gloriously big and was upgraded on arrival to the suite. Their customer service is amazing and they’re there to help you out lent me an umbrella showed me different places to go and also gave me a bus card to use for my trip not to mention the snacks that they bring to your room which are delicious turkey inspired treats. The breakfast was an amazing too and array of different foods a full Turkish breakfast. So close to all of the attractions the location is just incredible.
Honestly I’ll be coming back here on my next trip to Turkey.

Such a charming hotel in bustling Istanbul. So pleased we stayed here because the hotel is so peaceful but within minutes you can access the top sites of Istanbul as well as restaurants and shops. We loved the decor and history. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. It was such a nice touch to have the travel card included in the arrival pack, mid afternoon snacks and also the information pack. The Turkish breakfast was so yummy. If you’re travelling to Istanbul this really is a wonderful place to stay.

We stayed there only for one night, but we couldn’t choose a better hotel.
Azer, the owner, was more than kind. We arrived earlier then the Checkin, not only that the room was ready and upgraded for free, we also received  breakfast after our arrival even though it’s was a bit after 11 am.
The breakfast in general was very good, a mix of healthy fruit, locals dips and handmade bakery. If you want they prepared eggs the way you like them.
In the afternoon they offer some snacks, if you are not there they bring it to your room so you don’t miss them.
The location was very good as well, direct in the heart of Istanbul (just 5 min walk to the blue mosque) but in a quite side street.
As we had a lot of luggage with us we got a free upgrade to the family suits, much space and lovely design. The bed was quite soft, but it was perfect for us.
I can really recommend this hotel, was the perfect last stay of our holidays.

A stunning find in the middle of Istanbul's hustle and bustle!  This gem of a hotel was like a secret hideaway, tucked in a corner off a main shopping street, just a 5 minute walk to the waterside and within walking distance to the Blue Mosque and other sites.
We'd booked a family room and a double - both were stunning, spacious, beautifully decorated and designed and very practical with everything you could need. The whole hotel was very clean throughout and maintained to a very high standard. A large fresh breakfast was included with our stay and we loved the daily snack tray waiting for us each afternoon.
All the staff we met during our stay were friendly, helpful, polite and professional whatever time of the the day or night we saw them.
Would highly recommend for a relaxing and enjoyable stay with excellent customer service.
