Wow, I have no other words to say. This place is incredible! My wife and I chose to take a more unconventional honeymoon to Istanbul and after staying here I know we made the right choice. I’d like to specially call two staff members who made our stay even more special, Yigit Sengelen and Isil pinar. This hotel, is just down the street from the Spice market, several mosques, and only 20 minutes from the Hagia Sophia. The hotel itself is beautiful, ornate and the rooms are spacious comfortable and newly updated. If that isn’t enough allow me to give you a walkthrough of our stay. We planned to stay in Istanbul for 6 nights. Upon our arrival Isil personally greeted us, asked us how our trip was and gave us a walkthrough of the hotel along with her colleague. Who by the way was incredibly helpful! Walking us to our room and ensuring we had everything we needed. She also encouraged us to take the “Discovery Tour” which I highly recommend by the way, and this is when we met the hotel Concierge Yigit. He walked us around the hotel and showed us some of the local highlights. Then he asked us about our planned excursions, tours etc. We told him we booked a few things but he just said if you need any help let us know. A day or so later we took him up on it. We had mentioned that we booked a Bosporus river cruise, but he offered an alternate for the same price but was on a private yacht. It looked much nicer and we were not disappointed. Won’t go into too many details but it was beautiful, the boat was great and it really was in a yacht which was a new experience for me. After another day we mentioned we wanted to go to another region of Turkey and within an hour Yigit had given us 3 options for scheduled tours including, flights and transportation Truly incredible, can’t say enough good things!
