10 Karakoy Istanbul - Special Class
Loved this hotel! Cool looking with a very trendy (in a good way) vibe. We didn't add breakfast in our reservation. Room was a nice size as was the bathroom. As we were going into the old part of the city both days, we used the tram rather than taxis and that was easy to do. About a 50min taxi ride ...
