I had a lovely stay at Beethoven Hotel - Special Category, enjoying the cozy room with a nice balcony and impressively clean amenities. The breakfast spread was good, especially the trilece cake, though I was disappointed by an encounter with a rude spa staff member that marred an otherwise fantastic experience. The location was excellent for exploring Istanbul, just a short walk from major attractions and public transport.
