Наталья 10.0

Отличное месторасположение отеля, рядом очень много достопримечательностей, магазинчиков, кафе. Персонал очень доброжелательный и приветливый, быстрое заселение. Номера не большие, но аккуратные, чистые, всё необходимое в номере есть. Ежедневно обновляют воду, кофе, чай, моющие средства. Нам немного не хватало маленького холодильника. Убираются каждый день. Наши номера были с видом во двор, но нас это не огорчало, так как в номере почти не бывали, а утром и вечером это было плюсом, так как отель находится на улице с трамваем.

Hendrik 9.0

Centrale ligging. Aya Sophia, Topkapipaleis, Blauwe Moskee, Egyptiche Bazaar. Allemaal op loopafstand. Onder het hotel de gezellige Red River bar waar je ook heerlijk kunt dineren. Kamers worden prima schoongemaskt

Personalul de la recepție foarte amabil. Ne-au ajuta sa schimbam camera dupa ce am constatat ca este gălăgie din stradă. Trece tranvaiul la fiecare 5 minute si este deranjat mai ales vara când deschizi geamul. Am primit o camera mai buna poziționată pe partea din spate unde era mai liniște iar paturile mai confortabile. Pentru acest lucru a trebuit să plătim o diferenta de bani la recepția hotelului. Micul dejun nu a fost foarte divers dar bun.

Pavel 8.0

Удобное местоположение. 2 минуты от метро. Центр исторической части города.

Everthing was nice and clean. Breakfast was a bit modest but totally enough. Reception worker was very helpful and gave us some tips and hints where to go.

Timur 10.0

Отличный отель с лучшим местоположением. В пешей доступности от самых интересных туристических мест. Завтраки были прекрасны, а на обед/ужин есть множество других мест в минутной доступности, если необходимо. Комната, пусть и не очень большая, но имела всё необходимое для комфортного проживания. Душевая комната чистая.

Michela 8.0

Hotel in ottima posizione a pochi passi da Santa Sofia, la stazione di Sirkeci e il terminal dei traghetti. Camere un po' piccole ma pulite e confortevoli. Personale sempre cortese e disponibile!
