Herlige tempur seng, men ikke et 5 stjernes hotell
The hotel itself was a disappointment as we were expecting a 5 star hotel. Service, standard and location dictates 3-4 star. The hotel's breakfast was decent enough, but here a disappointment compared to what one would expect of a 5 star hotel. The room was large and had a relatively spacious bathroom with spa bath. Air conditioning worked, but not optimal, as it was never properly cool the room but good enough temperature to sleep. We had a few technical problems along the way (air conditioning and a light bulb), both of which were fixed right away. The service at the desk was good, they spoke good English and was cheerful and welcoming s. The hotel said to be central. Our view was that it was quite close to most sights, but the reality is that it takes about 10-15 minutes to walk to the Grand Bazaar and 25 minutes to the Spice Bazaar, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia. The biggest plus of the hotel was the amazing good beds, clean Tempur mattresses and pillows, lovely! On the roof there was a nice outdoor area with swimming pool and bar, clean and inviting, but also here, not a 5 star facility. I would say that this is a reasonable and good hotel if you're looking for 3 star hotel, but apply 5 stars I would recommend looking for another.
