Check-in was smooth, and they accepted my request quickly. The room was comfortable and clean, and breakfast was delicious. Everyone on staff was friendly and ready to help. Shakhzod at reception was especially kind and professional. Thanks for making the stay so pleasant! 🙏✨

The room was extremely small and below standard. Its toilet wobbled and only flushed sometimes. I also booked Old Sara City Hotel for the rooftop terrace, but it stayed closed throughout my five days there, so I never got to enjoy the views. Breakfast was meant to run until 10 AM, yet arriving after 9 meant finding only crumbs, which was frustrating. The location was a strong point: the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia were both a four-minute walk away, with a market, bars, and several restaurants nearby. Staff were friendly, but the room problems and closed terrace affected my stay enough that I’d give it just 1 star.

The location made it easy to get around and reach lots of attractions, and there were plenty of choices at breakfast. Our room was very clean and comfortable, just right for unwinding after a busy day. The staff were always friendly and helpful, making sure we had what we needed. I had a great stay and recommend the place.

On my first trip to Türkiye, I was glad I chose this hotel. It was clean and comfortable, with a great view and a convenient location. The staff were very helpful, and I’d recommend staying here.
