The spa and wellness center offered some much-needed relaxation after exploring the city all day, and the sauna was a great bonus. Just a heads-up, the walk back can be a bit challenging after sunset if you're not used to the hills, so plan accordingly 🌟

I stayed in a Beautiful Double Room and it was super comfy. The bed felt amazing, and I loved how clean everything was. And a nice view added so much to the experience. They really took care of the room every day, too. Just a heads up, the access to the hotel is a steep climb, which might be a bit tough after a long day of exploring.

Family with children find it decent
The staff at the reception were just amazing. They offered us complimentary tea on arrival, and Mustafa were pretty good too get us an early breakfast for our flight, really excellent.
It wasn't exactly a bargain , but for what we got, it was still acceptable.

It was just a suitable option for a quick trip in Istanbul with really good value. The best part was the friendly staff who helped us with our luggage right when we arrived. Tip, Make sure to ask for extra towels, as they seem to run low.
