What a beautiful hotel. It's old and feels like stepping back into time. And waking up to the view of the water every day was wonderful. It was so convenient to walk to the restaurants and shopping of Balat and I loved that it was across the street from a tram stop! It made it sooooo convenient with my daily trips to the other side of the straight. The staff spoke great English and buffet turkish breakfast was served every morning til 10:00. I would definitely stay here again!

Historical Hotel in Balat, good restaurant
It was a good choice of hotel in the Balat, where I was able to explore the neighborhood. The manager was able to get me a room with a balcony and a view of the Bosphorus, which was what I requested even when it wasn’t available in the app. The Greek restaurant downstairs was excellent, it was always busy for lunch and dinner. The free breakfast was sufficient.

Old style feel in one of the coolest neighborhoods in Istanbul. What else can you ask for - the breakfast is amazing and the manager Cemilah is super accommodating. The tavern-style seafood restaurant on the bottom is packed every night

Very clean Facility. The staff was wonderful. I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. Except that the cleaner didn’t change my bed sheets every day. Maybe the cleaner was overwhelmed by her workload and she forgot to change the sheets for 3 days. She did make the bed but the sheets remained the same.

The hotel is clean and quaint, with a delicious breakfast buffet and a nice restaurant. It is in a great location to walk around in the historic UNESCO area of Fener and Balat. Our room was small, but had a lovely view of the golden horn. The pillows were great too!

Sadly we were just there one night and had to leave before breakfast.
But we wanted to visit that area, and found a fantastic restaurant just two doors away. Evelik. One of the best we've been to.
The golden horn waterway is right across the street for a great walk and views.
Transit station also very near.
We would definitely consider returning for a longer visit.

Period property, so has character but next to busy noisey road. We didn't go, but restaurant downstairs busy both nights we stayed, so seems popular. You can hear everything in the room we had from the restaurant, (even someone snoring above us, which we found amusing) but worst thing was the smell of cigarette smoke drifting in. Luckily it ended around midnight, so not too bad. Would say the hotel is good if you're not planning on staying in the room too long and are out enjoying the neighborhood.
