The location of hotel is super (near tram station & some city attractions). The rooms and some parts of hotel would need some renovation, but after dissatisfaction with assigned room we were transferred to a new room (bigger and much nicer). The choice for breakfast was OK, but would be nice if they could offer some other types of cheese/sausages... more

We expected many things from the 4 star rating and the list of room facilities but were very disappointed. A mouldy room greeted us and it was very basic. "where are the slippers?" and the many other things that were on the website. It was a dump. After we spoke to the manager, they upgraded us to a better room... more

The location is excellent: - 5 minutes walk from the railway station; - 5 minutes walk from two tram stations (Gulhane or Sirkeci), by the way one of the best trams in Europe; - 15-20 minutes walk from five (half) of the top ten attractions in Istanbul (Topkapi Palace, Aya Sofya, The Blue Mosque, The Archeology Museum and Eminonu Harbor... more

I stayed in this hotel from 10-15 August 2009. I didn' t booked and at the reception showed me a very small room with 2 beds at 70 E. I told them i can pay untill 50 E and i can't live in a so small room, so they bring me to a little bigger room which was OK but... more

The location of the hotel is great - it is 5 minute walking distance to the all main atraction. Personal in hotel is very friendly, useful and helpful. If you need hotel just for sleeping, this hotel for this price (we paid 210 EURO for 2 persons for 6 nights) is definitely the best choice. It is a nice budget... more

We thought we would try to save some money and stay at the Grand Seigneur, but if you can afford to stay somewhere else then I would. The room was a good size, but very basic. The decor was very old and tired, and it didn't seem particularly clean. The airconditioning blew directly on the bed, and the direction of... more

This hotel has a perfect location , walking distance to many historic attractions and nice restaurants. The rooms could use some paint and the light in the bathroom was not ok, but we slept well in the beds. The breakfast was with a local touch and definitely enough. The staff was incredibly helpful and nice, they made our long weekend... more

The staff is very friendly. Our badroom was very small (shower and toilet behind the showercurtain). One day we got no towels, but we didn't ask for it. Don't expect to much for breakfast. It's o.k. but not excellent. For this price I don't think you will get much better. more
