The hotel is extremely central, but on a pedestrianised street, so quieter than you might expect. The room did indeed have a good view of the Aya Sophia, and was reasonably large, clean, well-stocked, and had plenty of hot water. The room seemed well-insulated and quiet. The staff were friendly, helpful, amenable, and well-organised. Breakfast was excellent, and we ate once in the dinery, which was absolutely fine. Definitely to be recommended!
