How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
Where it is, and how far the landmarks are
The hotel stands on Tersane Caddesi in the Emekyemez neighbourhood of Istanbul. Its position is a strong point for anyone whose trip is built around the city's landmarks: Arab Istanbul Mosque is about 0.1 km away in a straight line, and Galata Tower about 0.4 km.
Further out, in straight-line distances, Süleymaniye Mosque is about 1.1 km and Sirkeci railway station about 1.3 km. Topkapı Palace is about 1.8 km, Hagia Sophia about 2.1 km and Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 2.3 km. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 31.8 km away.
Terrace or spa bath
Size is therefore not a reason to choose between them; the view and the extras are.
Three rooms look over the city: the Comfort Quadruple Room, the Luxury Quadruple Room and the Quadruple Room with Terrace, which adds outdoor space of its own. Three look to the sea: the Double Room with Sea View, the King Room with Spa Bath and the One-Bedroom Apartment. The King Room with Spa Bath sleeps up to 3, the only room with a stated count.
Because each room carries a sofa bed in addition to its double bed, and family rooms are among the hotel's facilities, the setup works for a family sharing one room. A couple gets the same 50 m² whichever room they pick, so the decision comes down to whether a sea view, a terrace, a spa bath or a separate bedroom matters more.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Comfort Quadruple Room | 50 m² | 1 double bed, 1 sofa bed | – | city view |
| Quadruple Room with Terrace | 50 m² | 1 double bed, 1 sofa bed | – | city view |

What is on site, and what is not
The hotel's facilities centre on family rooms; children are allowed, and the sofa bed in every room type gives a family a place to put a child without booking two rooms. The hotel's list of facilities names no pool or restaurant, so travellers who want either should weigh that before choosing it. There is no parking, which matters to anyone arriving by car.
Check-in, check-out and other practical rules
Check-in runs from 14:00, with a latest check-in time of 23:30; anyone arriving later than that should not count on being received. Check-out is until 12:00. Children are allowed throughout the hotel. The hotel has no parking of its own.
Who it suits, and who it should give pause
It suits families and small groups who want generous, uniform space: 50 m² in every room type, a sofa bed alongside the double bed, and children allowed.
It does not suit travellers arriving by car, since there is no parking, and it does not suit anyone who expects a pool or a restaurant in the hotel.
