Not sure what the vip amenities were.
But we liked this hotel. It was very convenient to all the sights. Staff was very kind. Rooftop area where they served breakfast was fantastic. Food was delicious and plentiful.

Overpriced hotel in a good location. Basic and small rooms. Pictures looked better than the actual property. You can hear all your neighbors. Comfortable beds and a/c worked well. Breakfast terrace with amazing view but only average food. Great service from every employee.

From the moment we got to the hotel we were greeted by very friendly staff. Great hospitality and took care of all our needs. Special mention for the staff at breakfast Gokhan and Sevci always had a smile. Great location to explore a beautiful cultured city

Needing some maintenance
We stayed in a triple room which was fairly close to the photos except for the following: the grout in the shower walls had mold and there were cracks around the drain. On the beds there was no top sheet rather only a thin blanket. So in all the room felt like it needed maintenance.
Apart from this the breakfast area on the roof had an amazing view of the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia plus the breakfast had a good variety.

We left after 2 days of a 6 day booking
The room we booked was extremely tiny. Two people with luggage could barely fit in it. The hotel had no availability to upgrade and refused to refund the balance. We were very unhappy.

The staff at the front desk, restaurant area and housekeeping was very friendly, helpful and made us feel at home. I strongly recommend this hotel because it's also in an excellent location to walk and take public transportation. The view at the restaurant is amazing!
