A great hotel, a short walk from Galata Tower, interesting streets, and transport. Staff were delightful and made our stay relaxing. We had room 402, Deluxe Sea View. It was spotless and exactly like the photos, if anything, even nicer. Serviced daily to a high standard. A Turkish rug made the room beautiful. There is an excellent terrace on the top floor for breakfast and also drinks, which you can order simply with the phone there. We received the front door code, but there is always an attentive staff member faster than us to open the secure door. I recommend this hotel. Soundproofing was fine. We stayed ten days and were satisfied, would stay again.

No complaints A future guest may like to note it does not have an operating hammam or sauna, the description should be edited. For further information, the elevator does not extend to the terrace so from an accessibility perspective you will need to be able to use stairs for one floor.

The location is excellent, close to all local attractions including Istiqlal Street and a short walk to the trams. Our room was very comfortable, bathroom is big and updated. The breakfast was good with many choices. Most importantly the hotel staff are excellent! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and were so helpful and pleasant always! We also loved the upstairs roof terrace, great to hang out after a long day on the go and enjoy the panoramic views of the city.

Nothing we loved everything

Hotel didn't look inviting from out outside but the location was great just a short walk from the metro station and lots of bars and restaurants. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Great view from the rooftop where the great breakfast was also served. The staff could not be more friendly, considerate and inviting - even when I arrived in the middle of the night I was greeted with a friendly welcome. They were very willing to help in anyway they could and would always stop for a chat.

Nothing notable. Wifi was sometime a bit variable but this was very minor.

Staff and location are amazing. We were received by the hotel owner who kindly spent some time explaining the region. The Room was big, beautiful and with an increadible view to the Bosphorus.

The air conditioning system is the same for the whole building. Our room had an inside temperature of 24 to 25 degrees celsius with the heat off and even by asking twice the staff could not turn on the cooling system even if it was that hot, because it means they would turn off the heat for the whole building (but why having the heat on for such a high inside temperature?). We couldn’t sleep any night because of the hot temperature, and it was disappointing, because I made a reservation of a room with air conditioning afterall and there wasn’t any note informing that the cooling system would be off in this period.

The room was big, bright and well equipped. The view was great. The shower and restroom were well designed. I enjoyed my room. Besides, the location was great, a couple of miles from the Galata Tower, Eminönü and Karakoy. You just walk there. Transportation is near also whether it's the metro of bus. The staff were very nice and helpful for every inquiry. The breakfast was great also, it's in the terrace in the 7th floor offering a mesmerizing view on the city I highly recommend it!

We stayed for 6 nights in this beautiful hotel and were absolutely delighted! The service and staff were excellent, very friendly, and incredibly welcoming. Our spacious room on the 6th floor was tastefully decorated (the owner is an architect) and always spotless. The stunning sea view was a highlight we enjoyed every day. The hotel also has a very good location, with the metro, Galata Tower, and Istiklal Street nearby. It was fantastic to have the option to order breakfast to our room or enjoy it on the terrace, which offered an equally wonderful view. In summary: Highly recommended!

Room was comfortable and had everything we needed. Despite the location of the hotel near to the busy street, with closed windows it was really quiet and we had a good sleep. We enjoyed the view from the window to the old city and Golden Horn. It was easy to walk from the hotel to the main attractions. We really liked the roof top terrace - view was incredible! It was so nice to sit there in the evening and admire all the city lights and illuminated mosks. And staff at the reception was really nice and helpful - thank you! Coffee and breakfast was very good too. We would stay here again.

The view from the terrace is breathtaking. Breakfast is served there and it is abundant. Next to the basics they serve every day another egg-dish for variation. The rooms are nice and comfy but nothing special and the view is not as good as it seemed but the terrace's view and the exceptionally friendly attitude of the staff makes up for it 10 times over. The location is very central and you can reach Eminönü (where e.g. the Grand Bazaar is located) or the famous istiklal street in just a few minutes time. We would stay there anytime again.

There was nothing bad to say about this place. Very friendly staff, great view and and good food.

We LOVED the location, it's about 500m from the Galata Tower and the Şishane Metro Station is opposite, with the Ṣ̌ishane bus stop being close as well. This quaint hotel has a functional lift, which was a prerequisite for us being on the top floor. The views from the room and from the large quiet communal terrace are spectacular. The fully air-conditioned room is serviced daily, has a kettle, cups, glasses, sugar and coffee sachets in the room as well as a flat screen TV and a bar fridge. Our room was 3 sleeper with a beautiful marble bathroom and was comfortable for us, with our luggage bags. We only had breakfast at the hotel one day however, it was ample and good value for the price, when compared to breakfasts prices elsewhere. The owner gave us valuable tips and advice on our way out every morning. I would definitely stay here again.

The duvet on our bed was a little too small for a queen sized bed and there is no microwave in the hotel kitchen to have food warmed, but the staff tried their best to heat our food on their hot plate.

The hotel room is nicely decorated and has gorgeous views of Istanbul. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The facilities are clean: bed, sheets, bathroom, all as you’d expect. I am a trouble sleeper and I slept very well here! In the morning you do hear other guests as well cleaning staff working in the corridor but it’s normal and it doesn’t happen early anyway. Location is perfect, close to the coffee shops, restaurants, and public transport. I felt safe and welcomed here, will happily return to this hotel :)
