    Make sure you stay in the double room with extra single bed as well as fridge. The location of the venue is marvellous, next to tourist attraction, historic Sultanahmet and a historic centre of Istambul, close to main attractions.

    clean bedding
    comfortable atmosphere
    relaxing sauna
    crowded breakfast

    I loved the cozy atmosphere , especially the standout cleanliness and comfortable bedding. The hotel's sauna and Turkish bath were fantastic spots to unwind after a day of exploring. Just a heads-up, the breakfast could get a bit crowded, but it didn't take away from my overall experience! 😊

    small rooms
    noise issues

    Really good location, unique rooftop dining, accessibility to public transport

    The rooms are too small for comfort!!! Noise issues from the street significantly hit the experience!!! The hotel layout can be confusing for new guests, leading to unnecessary frustration!!! Maintenance of communal areas needs urgent attention!!!

    delicious breakfast
    clean rooms
    average coffee
    crowded dining
    noise disturbances

    The stay included a good variety in the Turkish breakfast, with tasty dishes, a welcomed start to each day. Cleanliness was a standout, with daily towel changes and a meticulous attention to room maintenance. The average coffee served at breakfast could be improved, and crowded dining conditions sometimes made it challenging to fully enjoy the meals. The noise from nearby areas occasionally disturbed the peaceful ambiance we sought.

    nice experience
    slow wifi

    Stayed at raymond blue to celebrate my birthday and it was so great! The location was perfect for exploring, and the staff were helpful. My previous visits to the city felt ordinary, but this experience was nice.

    wifi was slow and unreliable.

    rooftop restaurant
    clean rooms
    repetitive breakfast
    limited variety

    Perfect location with a rooftop gem!

    I enjoyed my stay, especially the rooftop restaurant with amazing views and made every evening special. The proximity to major attractions allowed us to explore the city without hassle, and the cleanliness of the rooms contributed to a pleasant experience. One small area for improvement would be enhancing the breakfast variety, as it could occasionally feel repetitive.

    great location but steep climb

    The location of the hotel is fantastic. Just 10 minutes from major landmarks. The staff offered a warm welcome and. We enjoyed the lovely city view from our room, especially in the evening light.

    friendly staff
    great location
    tasty breakfast
    messy bathroom

    The staff was super friendly. The location is a big plus, within walking distance to major attractions like Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia. Breakfast was tasty, keeping us energized for our adventures. The tram stop is also just around the corner.

    One downside was that the bathrooms were a bit of a mess after showers, as water would pool on the floor. It was a minor inconvenience but something to be aware of.
