I had an awesome stay at Magnaura House Hotel! The location was perfect, with major attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia just a short walk away, though the street noise could get a bit loud at night. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience feel really personal. However, the breakfast juices weren’t the best, but everything else was delicious, especially the local Turkish items.
