The hotel is in a very convenient position: close to the Grand Bazar and to the tramway which takes you to the city center. Other than that there is plenty of room for improvement: breakfast was terrible!It is a "Russian tailored" breakfast that has nothing to do with a regular continental breakfast. I.E. no fresh fruits or sweets, cakes. Also... More

Hotel lobby is nice. We had ordered a deluxe room but were given a standard room that was clean but small so asked to be changed. Carpets were awful and need to be replaced but everything else was very clean. Terrace was nice. Staff really try to be helpful but seem a little disorganized. Breakfast was good except we couldn't... More

This hotel is located some 10-15 min. walking distance from the Grand Bazaar. The neighborhood is safe to walk around, even in the late night hours. The room that I got was small (I don't know if this was a standard double room size) but comfortable and very clean. Our room was quiet, even Adhan didn't disturb our sleep :-).... More

I wanted somewhere affordable to use as a base and this hotel was perfect for that. Everywhere was easily accessible and after a long day out, the roof terrace was perfect to unwind with a drink ( or 2!). I found the staff helpful and they even taught me a bit of the history and language! We hope to return... More

Stayed here in January 13, hotel seemed to have had a lot of money spent on it, we had a gorgeous bedroom! The hotel is ideally located for exploring the beautiful city! Staff were extremely friendly and brekkie was good!

Got a stay in this hotel due to an overbooking by TK airlines. The building is old and needs an urgent refurbishment. The Room was small and uncomfortable. Bathroom was very small, smelly and did not seem well cleaned at all. Hotel neighbourhood was dodgy and seemed dangerous for walking around without daylight.
