Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Breakfast served in the lobby — The breakfast area is in the lobby, which some guests may find less formal than a dedicated dining room.
- Rooms and cleanliness rated lower than other aspects — The hotel's own rating for rooms and cleanliness is 6 out of 10, lower than its location and service scores, suggesting some inconsistency.
- Check-in only until midnight — Check-in is available from 14:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight may need to plan ahead.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, which is a constraint for travelers with animals.

7.9Verified guest“The hotel looks great and is comfortable. The location is excellent, really close to the tram, shops, and monuments. The staff are polite and welcoming, doing their best to make the stay pleasant. The rooms are a good size, brand new, and some have a sea view plus an extra bed. It's also quiet when you walk in.”
7.9Verified guest“I was impressed. It's modern and in good condition. My room was changed from a single to a twin, which was nice for the extra space. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. The bathroom was great. On my last day, I came late for breakfast and they didn't mind making me a plate from the fridge, at no charge. I chose this hotel for its proximity to old Istanbul and the airport, and I wasn't disappointed.”
