“Marvellous location and impressive hotel, with pleasant staff. The room was well heated, and we had a twin/double with a seating area, iron and ironing board, and a work desk. Breakfast was gorgeous with lots to choose from. Taksim metro was 15 minutes away. Service was perfect throughout – we loved our time here, thanks.”
