the staff were amazing, very helpful very kind. I booked three rooms, 2 of the 3 rooms were upgraded for free. I got sick and they sent me ginger tea to my room without me asking for it. look for Ismael he’s a dear, we were sad we couldn’t say goodbye before leaving. the room view was breathtaking, and even with my messiness they were able to clean the room perfectly and organize my stuff. location is also great, metro station, super market, pharmacy, currency exchange, river and galata tower, all is 2-5 minutes walking distance. galata port and Eminonu grand bazar are 20 minutes walking distance taksim square is 8 minutes away. bars and restaurants are less than 10 minutes walking distance. over all, location is close to everything.

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.

    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.

    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.

Galata tower is right around the corner but thankfully, the hotel is tucked away in a quieter street. The staff is super helpful and offered recommendations to restaurants and shopping!

    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.
