“Tavra Hotel strikes me as a conveniently situated base to explore Istanbul, especially given its proximity to local restaurants and transport links. While it's not directly in the center, the Grand Bazaar is within walking distance, and rooms, some offering sea views, seem well-equipped. For a 2-star hotel, it seems to offer a solid, genuine experience.”
