Reviews
The breakfast is excellent and you can order freshly made omelettes.
Staff are friendly, highly professional and takes pride in their work.
And there is a really good Japanese sushi restaurant right behind the hotel.
As a tourist, perhaps the location is not as convenient as I thought, but it suited me well since I like to walk to places. It is easy to walk from the hotel to Bosphorus and to visit the palaces.
