Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms can be small — A guest noted the bedrooms are 'tiny', which may be a consideration if you need extra space.
- Dining gets mixed marks — The dining rating is 6/10, and although breakfast is frequently praised, other meals may not meet the same standard.
- Very short check-in window — Check-in is only available from 14:00 to 14:30, so you'll need to arrive in that specific half-hour or make prior arrangements.
- Busy, crowded area — The location is described as 'crowded', which could mean more noise and foot traffic around the hotel.

7.4Verified guest“Great for shopping trips in Istanbul. It's a small hotel with tiny bedrooms, but the bread and eggs at the restaurant were good. Service was excellent, and the breakfast was sensational. Wake-up calls and ironing were free. The location is stunning but crowded, with places like Haci Baba restaurant a 10-minute walk away.”
