Great accommodations, great service, excellent location, just next to Hagia Sofia. Highly recommend.
Stayed in: Triple Room
Everything was very nice. The room is very cozy—small, but very well organised — and had everything you need, including a kettle, cups, toiletries, and a hairdryer. The breakfast is extraordinary, featuring the wonderful traditional cheese pies you usually find in traditional Turkish restaurants. They also provided plenty of complimentary bottled water and arranged our airport transfers at a very reasonable price with high-end cars.
The only thing my wife didn't like is that our room was right in front of a mosque, so she was woke up by the very early service (before sunrise). I didn't hear anything, so had no problems with this. The windows are quite good, so it really depends on the person, how sensible you are to sounds.

Great place for enyoing Istanbul

Close to all the important places Topkapi palace, Sophia mosque, Blue mosque, basilica cistern. Tramway close by for moving around. The frontdesk people were very friendly and kind.
Just a minor thing: the vehicles cannot go to the front door, they must leave you at 100mts. But I did not matter at all.

Excellent location and very good value for money. Amazing staff, held luggage as well on the day of check-out until our flight. All services available as advertised. Breakfast had good selection of local food. Major attractions like Hagia Sophia, blue mosque, topkapi palace and basilica cistern on 5-10 min walk. 5 min away from Gulhane tram station.

First stay in Turkey, and overall it was a good experience.

The location is excellent, everything is within walking distance. Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque are just a short walk on one side, while Topkapi Palace and Gülhane Park are on the other. Kudos to the staff, who were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The room was clean and comfortable, although it felt a little small considering the price. The breakfast was good, and the rooftop view was definitely a highlight, especially with the beautiful view of Hagia Sophia. Overall, a good experience, especially because of the excellent location, friendly staff, and rooftop breakfast view.
