★★★★★ — Great Golden Flower, Great Staff and Perfect Location.

Great friendly staff, rich breakfast services and clean rooms, they speak very good English. We arrived super early in the morning but they still allowed us to check in. We reached the Golden Flower by taking the metro from the airport. The Golden Flower was only 5 mins away from the metro station. The Blue Mosque and Ayasofya were a few minutes away by walk. The Grand Bazaar was also close by. I really enjoyed the desert shops near the Golden Flower. We will visit this lovely Golden Flower and istanbul again
