Leandros 10.0

Great Location. We went alone and discovered a lot in the city. Galata bridge just opposite the hotel, Also metro there and if you are going to meet this area, this is the best way to do it. Breakfast was really tasty, with wonderful view. We would go again to the same hotel.

Perfect location for the metro, short walk across the bridge and you are in Eminonu. Comfiest beds ever!

Hector 10.0

I had a wonderful stay of over a week for work. The staff were always helpful and attentive — special thanks to Shokufeh and Tolga, who supported me with everything I needed, from arranging an extra chair for my workspace to helping with luggage and coordinating the airport transfer. The breakfast was varied and delicious, and the location was perfect — my partner could safely explore the area on foot while I focused on my work.

Halich was perfect for our 4-day stay. Location was perfect for us. You're not in the middle of touristy things, but it's walkable to Galata, Karakoy, and various tram stops, ferries, metro and bridges which makes it perfect for reaching the best bits of Istanbul in 10-15mins. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a decent variety, and views from rooftop every day were amazing. Room was spacious enough for us and very clean. Simple and minimal, not much in the way of extras except the slippers, but it was enough. I'd say this is more of a 3-star hotel than 4-star FYI, but it was fabulous value for money.

Leelane 9.0

It was clean, quiet, and instant coffee and water were providence daily. There is a very good cafe right next door that served excellent, inexpensive coffee.

Snježana 10.0

The staff have been very helpful. We get upgraduate rooms and this was a nice surprise for us. The location is amazing because it is nearby the top attractions such as Galata tower, and coffe shops with amazing cakes San Sebastian we would like to recomend, all the museums , Aja Sofija, Cisterna etc. The breakfast on the rooftop was great with the best view to Aja Sofija etc. We would like to praise Mrs Ceren and the room division manager Mr. Ensar who has helped us with a big problem we have had. All the teams was working on it and all of them are great. Thank you also for the fruits and wine delivery to the rooms after we have solved the problem together. Great team - the best I have ever met ! Congratulation ! Snježana and Anthea

Milan 9.0

Excellent location central to anything you’d want to see or do in Istanbul, and only a short 5 minute walk to the beautiful Galata tower. The breakfast was great - lots of variety with an amazing rooftop view as well! We had an early checkout and hotel was kind enough to pack us some food to pick up upon leaving. Hotel staff Ceren and Arda were especially very friendly and helpful. Would stay again!
