Review by hotel critic
Stepping into Shining Star Hotel was like uncovering a hidden treasure in the heart of Istanbul. the receptionists were not just attentive but went above and beyond, catering to our every need with genuine warmth and hospitality. the room exuded comfort and elegance, with a perfect blend of modern amenities and historical charm, offering a view of the majestic Hagia Sophia. The hotel's attention to detail extended beyond just the decor – from the spotless cleanliness to the thoughtful gestures of providing a late breakfast upon our arrival. the staff's impeccable service truly made our stay unforgettable, always ready to assist and engage in friendly conversations. the 24/7 coffee and tea maker added a cozy touch, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the city's wonders just a few minutes away on foot. the strategic location near iconic landmarks like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque made it a breeze to navigate the city on foot, immersing ourselves in Istanbul's rich history at every turn. the newly opened hotel not only offered top-notch quality at a reasonable price but also showcased stunning views of the cityscape, adding an extra layer of magic to our experience. In conclusion, Shining Star Hotel surpassed all expectations, providing a seamless blend of comfort, convenience, and historical allure. As an art historian with a deep appreciation for architectural heritage, this hotel is a true gem that I wholeheartedly recommend to fellow travelers seeking a memorable stay in Istanbul.
