My 5-year and I spent 24 hours in Istanbul and had the pleasure to stay at Primero Hotel. Even though the reviews were excellent, we were still pleasantly surprised by the quality, comfort and good looks of this boutique hotel. Our bed was super comfy and the room just smelled so nice, and our bathroom was well appointed with plush towels. Overall a very nice, modern hip feel.
The breakfast was incredible, what a spread! It was a mix of Turkish food and an American breakfast, served buffet style, wonderfully fresh and so tasty.
The area is super central also, walking distance to all the tourist attractions and sights: Grand Bazaar, Haga Sophia, Blue Mosque, tons of pretty plazas and parklets, plenty of restaurants and convenience stores and we felt very safe walking back at 11 at night.
Our host at check-in was also so kind and extremely helpful, we just can’t wait to be back and staying for an extended period here!
