Best stay location at sultan Ahmed
Stay was safe and comfortable. The staff hospitality was excellent, taking extra efforts to ensure all are needs were taken care. Hotel is at prime location, with less than 5 min walk to hagia Sofia and many eateries around. Rooms were clean and spacious. They also had their sweet shop which offered us discounts, for take aways.
