Rough Guide
"Hard to believe this well-positioned, tastefully refurbished hotel was once the Yücelt Hostel, mainstay of the young and impecunious heading out to India in the 1970s."

"Maybe it's hip because it's a pioneer -- Siraselviler Avenue used to be a bit dicey, but it's now very close to having a clean bill of health."

"The lively nightlife and shopping area around Beyoğlu is generally neglected by hotel entrepreneurs... the Lush is the first to offer interesting accommodation without the fanfare."
Jetsetter
"Eclectic hotel with arty rooms and bags of character in Istanbul’s vibrant Taksim Square."

You can choose from cereals, pastries and Turkish favorites — sesame-covered simit, goat cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and yogurt — ask the waiter for Turkish tea and eggs made to order.
Lonely Planet
"One of a fast-sprouting crop of boutique hotels around town, this self-consciously hip place has 35 attractive rooms of varying sizes, all of which are individually decorated and full of amenities."
