8.8/10

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel's location was superb, just a stone's throw away from Aya Sofia and the Blue Mosque. The rooms were spacious and clean. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to Chengiz and Taki, the owners. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited options due to the current situation. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Istanbul.
