Hotel hielt was es verspricht

Obwohl eine Baustelle gleich neben dem Hotel war, war es doch recht ruhig. Das Restaurant im obersten Stock hatte zwar eine wunderschöne Aussicht, jedoch war das Essen nicht wahnsinnig speziell. Ich würde das Hotel weiter empfehlen.

TOP-Lage und freundliche Bedienung

Das Bestechende an diesem Hotel ist seine Lage. 10 Fußminuten zur Hagia Sophia, 10 Min. zu den Anlegeplätzen der Bosporus-Schiffe oder zum Ägyptischen Basar, 15 Min. zur Blauen Moschee oder zum Topkapi-Palast. Dazu liegt das Hotel direkt in der Ibni Kemal Cad., einer reinen Fußgängerstraße, in der sich div. ordentliche bis gute Speiselokale befinden. Keine 5 Min. entfernt ist die Straßenbahnhaltestelle "Gülhane"; von dort kommt man in ca. 40 Min. für ca. 2 € (Umsteigen "Zeytinburnu" in die Metro) zum Flughafen Atatürk. Weiterer Pluspunkt ist das sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal; hervorzuheben ist hier die deutschsprechende Ruveyda. Die Zimmer sind sauber und ordentlich, ebenso das kleine Duschbad, an dem allenfalls das sehr kleine Waschbecken und die fehlenden Ablagemöglichkeiten zu kritisieren sind. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist ordentlich; es gibt Brot und Toast mit Wurst, Käse und Marmeladen, Eier, auch Rührei und Bratkartoffeln, Müslizutaten, versch. Yoghurts sowie Tee u. Kaffee im Automaten und Kaltgetränke. Das Haus ist nicht hellhörig; Straßengeräusche sind aber von draußen deutlich wahrnehmbar, ebenso wie der morgentliche Ruf des Muezzins, was uns allerdings nicht gestört hat. Im Doppelbett liegt man unter einer gemeinsamen Decke.

Ca. 80 m Richtung "Gülhane" auf der rechten Seite das Restaurant "Pasazade": klasse Essen zu vernünftigen Preisen (20-30 TL) und sehr freundlicher unaufdringlicher Bedienung.
