Nothing to complain about, the venue met requirements, can't recommend it highly enough it. Beautiful and ideal hotel, flexible staff, loved unbeatable location close enough to the new airport and the center. The service was good during all my really really nice stay.

Spotless hotel in a nice building close to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, the center and grand bazaar. Cooperative employees from the bell team to the receptionist. Great pool, parking onsite.

Lovely hotel with well-designed rooms and small gardens. Everything was wonderful as expected, though the bathroom was quite small.
The staff was poor.

Taste the food in Sera Restaurant, you only need to walk 700 feet to reach it. We really enjoyed the fact that we chose sura hagia sophia. We strongly recommend it to family and friends. Decent place for vacation in Istanbul...
