My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The room, while spacious and beautifully decorated, had some darkness and noise issues along with dated bathrooms showing signs of mold. The service was a bit inconsistent at times, but the staff's friendliness and helpfulness stood out. The central location was both a blessing and a curse, offering a great view of Istanbul but also subjecting me to noise from surrounding nightclubs. The dining experience, although adequate, left me wanting more variety. Despite these drawbacks, the overall value for money and the hotel's character added to its charm.

I stayed in one of the 'Orient Express' rooms which was incredibly spacious and beautifully furnished with antique pieces. However, the room was a bit dark and noisy, and the bathrooms showed signs of age with some mold present.

The hotel's central location near Istiklal Caddesi provided easy access to the vibrant area of Beyoglu but also exposed me to noise from nearby nightclubs.

The hotel offers a bright atmosphere despite some initial issues with street light beaming in, quickly resolved by a room change the next day with the help of the efficient staff. The centralized location is a major plus for exploring Istanbul's vibrant areas. However, some minor refurbishments are needed in certain areas. Overall, a good value for the money in the heart of Istanbul.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, there were issues with the TV and bed. The balcony added a nice touch, but the shower was just average. The staff quickly resolved the curtain issue, which was great, but there were some drawbacks like the outdated TV and bed.

The hotel's location is excellent, being centrally located near vibrant areas like Gelata and Taksim. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby, and the view from the bar is stunning.

The dining experience was a bit disappointing for me as the breakfast in the basement wasn't my favorite. However, there were various options like eggs, olives, cheese, yoghurt, bread, and jams.
