Our 8-day stay was absolutely fantastic. The hotel is located in the best place possible, you can go walking to all the famous sights like the Blue Mosque, Ayasofya, Theodosius Cistern etc. Yet it's very quiet at night which is perfect to rest after an eventful day. The tramway is 5 min walking from the hotel, there are lots of restaurants and shops in the area. The hotel itself is very cosy, clean, the breakfast is very good as well, there are cold and hot dishes, tea and coffee. We want to thank especially the staff of the hotel, very friendly and helpful, they helped us with all our questions, organized the transfer from and to the airport. All in all, we recommend this hotel without any doubt and when we come to Istanbul next time, we will definitely stay in Artika.
