Excellent location. Real central to everything one needs to see in Old Town. A stone throw away from Hagia Sofia (can see dome from pool), the Blue Mosque - only a couple of stops from Grandbazar.... this location as good as it gets if you are a tourist wanting to experience Istanbuls old town. BUT Unfortunately that's where the positives end. We are a family of 2 adults with 3 children all aged 5 and below. *Check In* We specifically mentioned both to hotel reservation team as well as concierge (who operate a WhatsApp service too) that we would be checking in late. However upon our arrival they couldn't offer us initial room type we booked so offered an alternative as "no other rooms were ready or available" Nevertheless we ended up in the basement floor with a 2 bedroom suite. *Room* The air conditioning /temeorare controls don't work. Requesting the hotel staff to resolve this didn't result in anything other than some light tampering from their so called "maintenance staff" who claimed it was all magically sorted. (It wasn't!) The pillows are more like mountains. Not suitable for children or adults who prefer flatter pillows. Generally though- the rest of the room was good and well serviced. *Food* The breakfast option is standard. Not a massive range of options though certainly not the worst. The restaurant staff try their best to service whatever a la carte request one might have. Room service is OK if you manage to get hold of someone after having to ring
