We stayed in one the family rooms (travelling family of 6). We chose the top floor as the excellent views across the Hippodrome and the Blue Mosque made the daily climb well worth it. We enjoyed hearing the regular call to prayer, quintessentially Istanbul, but if you don’t wish to hear this then perhaps another of Zeynel’s rooms would suit you better. The rooms were comfortable, the double glazed windows cutting out any traffic noises, and they were maintained daily by friendly cleaning staff. Office staff were very responsive to any queries. We all enjoyed our stay in Istanbul and would happily stay here again.
