Breakfast was disappointing for the quality of the hotel. Rooms were eye wateringly expensive, particularly for a weekend. Position in Taksim Square excellent, but Old City quite a trek away.

Location is great, all the staff are wonderful especially concierge, breakfast manager and cleaning staff (Aung🙏). We did have a couple of incidents (guests being extremely disrespectful and noisy at night) and feel the situation could have been handled better. We were able to speak to the GM about this and he was very kind, professional and helpful.
