Came with my family members, everything was really good. The staff was respectful, offered me wake up service and ironing free of charge. The room was beautifully maintained, had clean private bathroom. The bed was comfy; and there was a bathtub. The service was excellent, I had a delicious and marvellous breakfast. Parking was nearby and I didn't mind paying extra gbp 13 per day. The hotel was in a magnificent and perfect position just next door to easy can access all main Sultanahmet's main area, the blue mosque and old bazar and main tourist attractions.
