“In my opinion, this is a strategically situated hotel for exploring historic Istanbul; the rooftop terrace, though, is the standout, promising memorable city views. The spa's Turkish bath adds another layer of appeal. All considered, it's a solid choice for those wanting to be in the heart of the action.”
