Pros: We really liked the hotel. We felt like we were part of history. I'd like to single out the concierge who booked us into the Murver restaurant for my wife's birthday. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name. He was a grown, imposing man. You gave us a real treat. Thank you so much!

The most magical and elegant hotel to stay in Istanbul

Pros: It is the most magical place you can stay in Istanbul. It's like walking into a time capsule and experience the elegance and serenity of the late 1890s, early 1990s. This place is full of history and the hotel management, including all staff, make their best to protect this \

Pros: You travel in time in the glorious days of the Orient Express, expecting to meet Agatha Christie, while having all the comfort of the 21st century. Ideal location close to various shopping areas and excellent restaurants (Yeni Lokanta, Aheste), as well as the metro (access to the airport with one change). The staff is super friendly, special thanks to Esmanur. The spa is very nice too.
