The hotel had modern and spacious rooms with a great city view and a quiet ambiance. The service was excellent despite being on vacation during Eid. The location was amazing, away from touristy areas but close to restaurants, cafes, and shopping spots. The dining experience met my expectations with a variety of fresh Turkish options. Overall, a fantastic stay with some minor drawbacks.

The service was impeccable, with the staff being very hospitable and attentive. The location was convenient, easily accessible to key areas like Nisantasi, Taksim, and Besiktas. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially with the outstanding Turkish dishes available nearby.
