Basilica Cistern Tours

This was my first time ever in Turkey and the staff at Demiray made the experience so amazing! It was raining all week when we were there but the hotel provided free umbrellas to use which was so helpful! The view from the top floor during breakfast was so beautiful, and speaking of breakfast, the food changes everyday but every single item was so delicious and worth trying, especially the soup of the day! Special thanks to the front desk staff for a smooth check in, we were able to get a room earlier than expected and when we checked out, they let us have some turkish coins as souvenirs! We had such a packed schedule that we didn't try the spa/pool but I wish we could've because it looked super nice! The location was great and in the middle of everything, the max walk to get somewhere was 15 minutes. You were also so close to the bridge that you could walk it instead of taking a ferry, which is what we did and got to see the Galata tower just by walking 25 min! I would stay here again if I come back to Istanbul!!

This was a great hotel in a great location in old town. The hotel was very clean and the staff were very friendly and very accommodating and always willing to help with great restaurant recommendations or planning day trips. The restaurant in the hotel had tasty Turkish street food options. The breakfast was in the hotel was good. The hotel is in a great location within walking distance to all the major attractions. The hotel description and write up was accurate. We would definitely stay here again.
