Small hotel but adequate, very clean and helpful staff. I loved the location and especially the rooftop area for breakfast, the view was amazing in the day and at night. The breakfast was excellent serving some different options each day. Public transport close by metro, funicular and bus and plenty of taxis. Easy walk to Taksim Square or you can get the metro. Two minute walk to Galata Tower area had a nice vibe.

We loved this hotel and will definitely be back. The location is great, with metro and funicular nearby but still quiet. It also has plenty of places to eat and drink within walking distance, and the rooftop bar and restaurant is excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and everything works as expected. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great.

Good value but our room window just looked out at a black gate so could’ve been dangerous if there was a fire. Hotel restaurant prices were a bit expensive and the laundry service was very expensive. The staff although were very friendly and helpful and the room was nice for the price we payed. The location was phenomenal.

Million dollar rooftop view from the daily breakfast location. Incredibly helpful front desk staff - from sightseeing recommendations to a last minute early AM breakfast accommodation. Lovely restaurant staff. Rooms small but extremely clean and well decorated. Recommend a rooftop dinner. Galata area is the best location to explore Istanbul (Istiklal Street up behind the hotel is 2.5 km of endless interest, easy access to Blue Mosque etc. via walk or public transit).

Terrific breakfast (very much in line with the other reviews), certainly exceeded expectations. Staff was very nice and accommodating. We stayed in the family room which was comfortable with 2 separate rooms and 2 separate bathrooms and comfortable beds. My chief complaint is the noise coming from the outside, cabs and cars beeping until 3 am each morning and music playing so we barely got any sleep. The location is great, very central but the constant noise from the outside was a bit too much for us (no fault of the hotel, just a lot of traffic and other things going on nearby). If you are looking for a quiet place, suggest to look at other hotels.
