I had mixed feelings about my stay at Lady Diana Hotel. The location was unbeatable, being just a stone's throw from major attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. However, I found the room to be quite small and dated, which took away from my comfort. While the rooftop dining offered amazing views, the breakfast options were limited and needed improvement.

I really loved my stay at the Lady Diana Hotel. The location is unbeatable, just a short stroll to major sights like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. The breakfast spread was fantastic, especially with that gorgeous view from the rooftop. However, the internet was quite in and out, which made it a little tricky to stay connected during my visit.

I spent 8 days at the Lady Diana Hotel in Istanbul, and it was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, allowing easy walks to nearby attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. However, the room sizes were small, and the lack of amenities like a minibar and limited breakfast choices left something to be desired.

The hotel had some basic facilities, but the lack of a proper restaurant and bar was notable. While I could get some drinks at a nearby hotel for sunset views, I expected more options within the hotel itself.
