Rosalie Palace

Good location - close to Yenikapi station (metro and ferry) and a 10 minute stroll from Aksaray tram station, the area around looked safe and busy. The hotel is very nice and clean. The staff was hospitable and friendly. The receptionist volunteered to show me available rooms before check-in, so I chose the one with a balcony.

Very moderate breakfast. It was included by default though, so not much to complain about. Had breakfast somewhere else in the city anyway. The bed was uncomfortable - twin beds were put together, but they were drifting apart every night, so I woke up sometimes in the niche between them. Pretty cool temperature in the room, especially at night - the A/C did not work on heating good enough. Turned out, they don`t have warm blankets (the one in the room was pretty thin), so I asked for an extra one.
