Galata tower area
I loved the area which was surrounded by restaurants and cafes along the street . I could see the galata tower from my room . I t was safe but noisy and crowded . The room was clean and has a small balcony . The staff were very friendly but the room was very small and there was no TV. The bathroom and the door of the room has little issues .

Konum mekan temizlik
Konum olarak harika bir yerde . Eşimle beraber memnuniyetle ayrıldık . İstanbul’da bu tarz otellerde konaklamadan önce hep acaba temiz midir , diğer konuklar nasıl olur , rahat eder miyiz , ses gürültü olur mu gibi soru işaretleri olur aklımızda. Bu yer tüm bu soru işaretlerimizi olumlu yanıtladı 😊😊

A Regrettable Disappointment
This hotel was a disappointment. They market themselves at a 4-star standard online but I'd rate them closer to 2-star. We were excited for our stay because of how cute the room seemed online when we booked. However, the hotel was obviously not operating at a professional standard. It was in rather shabby condition and the hallway was being used for storage. When we first got into our room, the toilet had a broken seat. The hotel was also very stingy on towels, providing only 1 set for two people the second night. When we requested more towels they smelled strongly of vinegar and were unusable. The disposable slippers provided smelled of toxic, noxious chemicals and we therefore did not use them. The staff were not unfriendly but the hotel was not run to the professional standard of a hotel claiming to be 4-star. To their credit, the room was cute and almost as-shown in the photos, albeit a tad tired and worn. They provided bottled water in the fridge, which was appreciated. For comparison, earlier in our trip we stayed in Sultanahmet at a similar price point and received excellent service in a spotless hotel that was very professionally managed.

In general it’s fine, but the bed wasn’t really comfortable, leaking water in the toilet and some other minor drawbacks. After two weeks in Istanbul and mostly staying within this area there is something to compare with.

Amazing!!
The atmosphere & design in the hotel is absolutely amazing, it’s giving retro vibes. We got greeted at the door which I find that very welcoming as not alot of places do that nowadays. The location is definitely the best part of the hotel it is walking distance to all the attractions. Overall I would highly recommend this hotel & I can easily say I found my new home once I return to Istanbul, Thank you

The hotel does a very nice view from the room, we did not have a full balcony, but just a small terrace. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would say that was the best part of our stay. The room is a lot smaller than pictured. I read some other reviews, commenting on the smell coming from the pipes of the bathroom and that was true. Not sure what it was but the bathroom does not smell great but the room and the bathroom were very clean. great location with everything all around.

10/10 Exceptional

Overall the stay was wonderful. Lots of shopping and dining experience on the Galata Hill which was very reasonably priced and a huge variety of different shops. It is approx 30 mins walk to Taksim square and Egyptian market. Grand bazaar is roughly a 40 mins walk from hotel where you walk across the Galata bridge and you see the locals all set-up for fishing and fresh cooked fish dining experience. Along the way there was lots of pit stops you can make. It is a stones throw from Galata Tower. The hotel was very clean, rooms were spacious with all working amenities, staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend.
