Review by hotel critic
During my recent visit to Istanbul, I had the opportunity to stay in a hotel nestled in the heart of Kumkapi, one of the city's ancient quarters. This location provided a unique fusion of tradition and modernity, allowing for easy access to the vibrant streets lined with charming restaurants and shops. While the staff at the hotel offered commendable assistance, their demeanor occasionally felt impersonal, and requests often went unanswered. The cleanliness standards fell short, as my room was not serviced during my stay. Basic amenities such as shampoo and towels were lacking, which detracted from overall comfort. It’s worth mentioning the noise from the surrounding area, which may pose challenges for light sleepers. The steep incline of the streets can be a workout, particularly for older guests, taking around fifteen minutes to navigate. If your intention is to merely rest your head after a day of exploring Fatih's historical landmarks, this hotel may suit your needs, but be prepared to adjust your expectations.
