Convenient Parking Options

“During my stay, I found the private parking lot nearby to be an excellent feature. It was small but very close to the hotel, allowing for easy access. Just a heads-up, the lot doesn't belong to the hotel, so negotiating the daily rate with the owner was necessary. However, this convenience made my trip more enjoyable as finding parking in the area can be quite challenging.” view full review

I had a pleasant stay at Serenity Boutique Hotel, enjoying its central location close to many attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The rooftop terrace for breakfast offered lovely views, although the breakfast variety was a bit basic. While the staff were friendly and always willing to assist, I found that only the manager spoke English fluently, which made communication a bit challenging at times. The cleanliness of my room was satisfactory, but I feel the hotel could benefit from some refurbishment to match the photos online. Overall, it was a decent experience for the price. 😊
