I had a fantastic stay at the Pierre Loti Hotel in Istanbul. The location is absolutely perfect, just a short walk away from iconic attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience all the more enjoyable. However, I did find the noise from the nearby tramline a bit distracting at times, and the minibar light made it difficult to sleep. Despite these minor issues, I would definitely return.
