Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel by the water, enjoying the nighttime views. The rooms were very well decorated, clean, and comfortable, offering a cozy retreat. However, the service, though nice, lacked some basic information that I needed from Mrs Pelin and Mr Aflaton. The location was perfect for me, with great nearby restaurants and cafes, especially enjoying sitting by the Bosphorus. The dining experience offered traditional Turkish dishes, which I loved, but additional options would have been appreciated. The facilities were excellent, providing everything I needed for a pleasant stay.
After a long day, the hotel pleasantly surprised me with its nicely decorated rooms, which are very spacious, clean, and comfortable. However, I wished they had included an iron, a kettle for tea making, and bottled water in the rooms.
