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.

From a 9 m² economy double to the 22 m² deluxe triple

Five room types are on offer. The Economy Double Standard Room is the smallest at 9 m², with one super-king bed, a city view and a stated capacity of up to 3 guests, a tight fit at that size. The Deluxe Triple Room is the largest at 22 m², with one super-king bed and one twin bed, and a city view. Between them sit three 17 m² rooms: the Standard Double Room with one super-king bed, sleeping up to 3; the Double Room with Partial Sea View with one queen bed, sleeping up to 3; and the Deluxe Double Room with Sea View with one twin bed.

The Double Room with Partial Sea View suits a couple travelling with a child, since it sleeps up to 3. A couple who want a full sea view take the Deluxe Double Room with Sea View. The Deluxe Triple Room, with a twin bed alongside the super-king, is the natural family room.

Family rooms, free parking and a paid airport shuttle

Family rooms mean a family can share one room rather than split across two, and the 22 m² Deluxe Triple Room is the obvious pick for that. Parking is free, which matters to anyone arriving by car. The airport shuttle is paid.

Its facilities otherwise lean practical rather than leisure-oriented; nothing here is aimed at a resort-style stay.

Check-in from 14:00, latest 23:30, check-out until 12:00

Check-in runs from 14:00, with the latest check-in at 23:30; check-out is until 12:00. Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed. Parking is free.

Who the hotel suits, and who it does not

The hotel suits travellers whose trip centres on the Sultanahmet landmarks: the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, Little Hagia Sophia, Hagia Sophia, the Basilica Cistern and Topkapı Palace all lie within about 1.2 km in a straight line. It suits families, with children allowed, family rooms and the two-bed Deluxe Triple Room, and it suits anyone driving, with free parking.

It does not suit pet owners, since pets are not allowed. It does not suit travellers who put room size first: the largest room is 22 m² and the economy double is 9 m². Nor does it suit anyone expecting to arrive after 23:30, the latest check-in time.
