We had a great 2 nights stay. Staff were fairly friendly, hotel was clean, set in particularly good area near to all attractions, sultan ahmet tram stations, Tram line. They gave us a standard triple room with a balcony and 2 king beds, as for instance...
Well, Wi-Fi was quite slow.

The hotel was lovely relaxing and in a breathtaking location. European style venue with stylish furniture in the rooms. A wonderful beach, awesome view.

The venue's location and staff were fab. Besides, a large museum is 5 minutes' drive away. There is an astonishing restaurant within walking distance of hotel. Really loved having sunny balcony to enjoy the view. Moreover, bonus was free WiFi. This was a pleasant stay, fair prices.
Maybe the street, it was noisy.
