We spent 3 nights at Senatus and it is a very conveniently located for most of the attractions and tram stop if needed to explore further. The breakfast was good and rooms were clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay here!

We stayed at the Senatus Hotel from 20 Jul 24 to 26 Jul 24. The staff was excellent and friendly. The breakfast was included and we liked it. Most of the attractions were within walking distance and had many dining options. The train station was also within walking distance, this would save a lot of money as you don't need a taxi to move around the city. One must take the Bosphorus Cruise option from the hotel, it's worth it. We enjoyed our trip and thank you staff of Senatus Hotel especially Hasan.
