Anu 10.0

atmosphere, location,

Ratih 9.0

Easy to get around as the location is very strategic at Taksim - a few steps to the metro station, bus stops, funicular to Kabatas (where tram and ferry port are located) and airport shuttle. Our room has a nice view of Gezi park and a glimpse of Bosphorus. We also like the classical old style of the lobby.

Maree 9.0

Claude 8.0

good location at Gezi park, no direct traffic, quiet, good breakfast

Ardenous 8.0

Its location is superb to be in Taksim Square, where is the traffic hub and airport bus terminal. Countless restaurants and shops are in walking distances. The staff are helpful and professional to conduct smooth check-in and check-out processes. The decoration is fabulous to display a 18 or 19 century upper class mansion style. Breakfast is a combination of meat, bread, fruits and snacks.

The location is amazing. So near to the Taksim train station. The room is a little small, but spacious enough for 1-2 person. Value for money 👍

I really liked its art nouveau type of design and worth staying. Facilities were well maintained and clean. It’s right in the heart of Istanbul (Taksim) and was also easy to access from the airport by Havabus. Breakfast at the rooftop was also nice with variety of foods and good view.

It’s a lovely, quiet and calm oasis in the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. I liked the decor - had an old colonial feel about it. The breakfast on the rooftop was lovely, with great views.
