Description:
'A thoroughly civilised small hotel which stands out among the welter of happy-go-lucky little hotels in the Sultanahmet area by its fine sense of style and excellent service. Do not expect turbaned pashas in this restored 19th century townhouse: The ambiance is restrained and European, with a touch of neo-classical and a hint of 1920s Paris. The lobby doubles upas a stylish café featuring thonet chairs, marbe-topped tables and old sepia photographs. A magnificent Corinthian capital (genuine Roman) supports the massive-glass reception desk. Rooms are confortable and full of light, with satellite TV on offer. The roof terrace commands a breathtaking close-up of the Blue Mosque and the Egyptian Obelisk. Across the street, the many-domed palace of Ibrahim Pasha, now the museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts, houses superb collections of illuminated Turkish manuscripts, Islamic calligraphy and antique carpets.'
