The rooms were large and nicely decorated in classical style.
It was a luxury room with nice bathroom, although the things were going to look a bit old.
The room was perfectly clean and was smell good.
Bed is soft and comfortable as well the few pillows.
The view is just superb. Looking to the Bosphoros. But who stay in Istanbul to watch the town from his room.

The hotels architecture is interesting and beautiful. It is very glassy and looks very nice.
The lobby has a big coffee shop with amazing view to the Bosphorus.
It is a great place for business meetings.
The front desk is professional, well trained and polite.
The guests are mostly business travelers and large tourist groups.

The hotel is a bit far from the main Istanbul attractions. It can be reached by taxi for about 10 minutes from Grand bazar.
The location is very quite. It is about 10 minutes from taksim, where most night clubs and bars are placed.
There are few buses stopping behind the hotel, but if you have money for this hotel, probaly you have also for taxi.
