Oval - Pera

The room and bathroom were cozy and clean, though a bit small, and the hotel was quiet and felt safe. It seemed to be mostly occupied by families, which helped me feel secure. For the price, it’s a good option, and the staff are very friendly. The location is excellent for the city center: just steps from the metro, about a 5-minute walk to Galata Tower and 5-10 minutes to Taksim Square. Special thanks to Kerim for quickly helping us, answering our questions, and sorting out the issues we had with the hotel.

The staff were attentive, friendly, and helpful, making the stay feel personal. The location is right in Istanbul’s historic peninsula, close to iconic landmarks like Galata Tower. You can feel the spirit and charm of the city in the details. A wonderful boutique hotel, highly recommended.

I spent two weeks here and felt completely safe as a solo female traveler. The staff were great, and the hotel was cosy and central, close to the metro. It was definitely worth every penny. My room had no view and was by the fire exit. To get there, I had to take the elevator to the top floor and then use an extra set of stairs, which was somewhat inconvenient.

They upgraded our room at no charge and kept our luggage all day while we waited for our night flight. The rooms were clean and cosy, and it’s a 5-minute walk to Galata Tower. Everything from the location to the service was amazing. A really nice stay.
