“This family-run hotel benefits from an enviable location, a short walk from Istanbul's major historical draws. I particularly appreciate the rooftop terrace-breakfast with those Marmara Sea views feels like a proper Istanbul experience. Rooms are well-equipped, but it's the personalized service that stands out.”
