    The window face to a wall. I saw a small cockroach in the bathroom on the first day. Placement of the wardrobe with the bed and the AC.

    Almost everything.

    We didn’t use the sauna or spa in general, probably wouldn’t have done, so but it did not seem tempting.

    The breakfast was an excellent selection of tasty food. For me a bit too much cheese. Could have been a bit more Fresh fruit but the oranges and apples were good. Excellent roof terrance.

    We booked a quad room for a family of 4. There were 2 rooms. Unfortunately, the pullout double sofa bed used by our kids, prevented the door from closing. The spa, although discounted for guests, was at a significant additional cost.

    The hotel was clean, friendly and comfortable. The bar was welcoming and the man who ran the bar was friendly and kind. The rooms were maintained well and the location was central for many sights such as the grand bazar and the blue mosque but was not noisy at night. The included breakfast was exceptional and the view from the restaurant was priceless.

    The breakfast is the same every day, and only one omelet per person is allowed. The door isn’t well soundproofed, so if someone walks by or knocks on another door, it feels like they’re knocking on yours. You can also hear all the noise from the street.

    The apartment is centrally located, close to everything, including the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the metro station. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby.

    We had a fabulous stay at Sunlight spa Hotel. The breakfast was good each morning. The hotel in the great central location. BIG thank you to Umut and the reception who helped us every step of the way and did everything he could do to look after us and make sure we had a comfortable stay. Thanks again I would recommend this hotel.

    Breakfast was good but a little boring same menu. Breakfast was not continental. My room did not have a kettle but had mugs and tea bags. Wardrobe didn't have any hangers so couldn't hang clothes in it.

    The staff was good and friendly. Breakfast View was just so beautiful you could see the sea and mountains far away. The hotel was clean. They have a spa that everyone should try. The hotel is in a good location, walking distance to blue mosque 5 minutes. There's good restaurants on the same street at the hotel. The staff were good and gave me an iron to use when I needed it. The staff a very helpful when need help booking etc..

    The room was generally OK but was a little dark and lighting wasn't great.

    The staff were really helpful and gave us lots of tips and information for our visit. The breakfast was really good, lots of choice and wonderful view of the Bosphorus. The location was reasonable and we were able to get to most places easily.

    It's a lovely hotel, friendly helpful staff. The location was superb with lots of cafes and restaurants and shops in the street. The breakfast buffet at the top floor was also excellent with lovely views of the sea. Main tourist attractions like the Grand bazaar, Blue mosque and Hagia Sofia were 10 to 15 mins walk at max. Metro stop a few mins walk. Would definitely recommend.

    The only issue is that the hotel is located downhill, requiring an uphill walk to reach major locations. Therefore, make sure to wear comfortable shoes and carry light bags.

    The view from the breakfast room on the terrace is magnificent. Every morning, we enjoyed breakfast with a breathtaking view of the Sea of Marmara, making each day start perfectly. The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of options and a live kitchen counter. Our room was spacious and comfortable, offering a beautiful sea view from the window. Additionally, the staff was extremely helpful and friendly, especially Mr. Karim, who provided us with a mobile charger at no cost and was always ready to help with a smile. The location is fantastic. Overall, it was an exceptional experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a memorable stay.
