The staff are amazing, so helpful. If you have any issues with noise at night ask for one of the art rooms. I was kindly moved when there was noice. The rooms are lovely, the bed comfortable, really good breakfast and the location is fabulous. Close to a metro line and about a 10 min walk to the tram. Very close to Galata tower. I will be back. Best hotel I have stayed in in Istanbul.

Galata Tower

Medieval Galata Tower pierces the clouds above Istanbul’s skyline, a soaring structure to the north of the Golden Horn. A replacement for a previous tower destroyed in the crusades, this one was built by the Genoese in 1348. For hundreds of years, it was the tallest building in Istanbul – its highest balcony still has the best views of the city today.

    While the tower is great vantage point, overlooking the entire Golden Horn, the admission tickets are quite expensive and the place is crammed with crowds. If you decide to visit anyway, aim for the 30min before sunset

    Another joke which is not even Turkish, as most of the monuments. Anyway. 35 euros just to inside the tower. If you want to use the lift you’ll pay 60 euros to enter. Told you these guys are born thieves! Amazing.

    The place has amazing vibes with the cafes surrounding the tower and the cobbled streets and all but the crowd is just crazy. Everyone wants a pic there for whatever reason and they are a painful hindrance to enjoying the place

    It's good that they have installed a set of lifts to get to the top of the tower. So you are not walking up too many steps. Best to get there early or towards sunset to see spectacular views with the mosques and the sea across Istanbul.

    Definitely a must. Go in the early evening as the night lights are awesome. Museum Pass is a must - this is one of the places you can visit with it. I bought a 5 day pass for 700 TL at Topkapi Palace.

    Fantastic location just a block from the Galata tower, lots of cute neighborhoods and streets, and 10 minutes max walk to many different transportation. Being near the tower also made it easy to find our hotel! The breakfast options were great and the staff so very helpful. They went out of their way to help us, couldn’t recommend them more!

    Great location, very close to Galata Tower and Istiklal st. Lots of restaurants around, it's right next to the metro line so easy access to anywhere you want if you choose to use the metro. Very easy to get taxi's as well (always ask for a meter taxi!) . The room and bathroom were spacious and comfortable. You get great views of the city from the top floor of the hotel and the Lylium spa at the hotel is fabulous! We had a wonderful Hamam experience there.

    Prime Location Alert This property is nestled in a vibrant neighborhood with a lively street, perfect for those who want to experience the city's energy. With the metro station just a 4-5 minute walk away, you'll be connected to all the major attractions. Plus, iconic landmarks like Galata Port and Galata Tower are within easy reach. What I loved the most about this hotel is its unbeatable location & staff. Mr. Ozkan went way out of the way for us which made our stay very comfortable.

    The staff were friendly and very helpful. They told us the best way to get to certain places around Istanbul and they offered us a metro card which we used during our stay. Breakfast was lovely and the complimentary drink on arrival was a bonus. The hotel was close walking distance to Galata tower, shopping precinct around Taksim square and many restaurants and dessert places close by. Only a few tram stops away from the old town.

    I traveled with my family and we stayed 5 nights in this hotel. This was one of the best hotels I've been to. Solely cause of the location, which was phenomenal! You will hardly find a better one in the center of Istanbul. It is only a 2-minute walk from Taksim Square, where all public transport stations are located, whether you go by metro or bus. We had a room directly facing the Galata Tower. Also, the staff is so friendly! Especially Mr. Muneeb and Mr. Ahmet. Next time we will return to the same hotel!

    The staff was incredibly helpful and available 24/7. The location was excellent, right by the Galata tower and lots of cute streets for eating and shopping. The price was very reasonable for a 3 bedroom apartment. Beds were comfortable with AC in each room, small living room and kitchen with a table, couch, fridge and a little stove top for simple cooking. There was an elevator to get to the third floor where our hotel apart was which was perfect because we had our baby with us. Super accesible.
