Super locatie en lief personeel!
Pros:

De locatie is top: rustige straat in een drukke wijk. Het enige geluid komt van de zeemeeuwen. De prijs/kwaliteit verhouding is super. Het personeel was zo lief, checkte een aantal keer hoe het met ons ging, of we iets nodig hadden, kregen souveniertjes en een fles wijn!

Cons:

Het bed en dekbed was iets te klein voor 2 lange Nederlanders.

Pros:

Odlican smjestaj u centru grada, odmah do Galata tornja. Najbolji dio hotela je dorucak, na terasi sa pogledom, hrana super sa mnogo izbora.
Takoder osoblje je izuzetno usluzno i od pomoci, dali su nam prekrasne suvenire i savjete za Istanbul.
Toplo preporucujem ovaj hotel, definitivno cemo se opet vratiti.

Cons:

Prozor od sobe se malo teze zatvarao, ali osim toga sve super!

Pros:

colazione in terrazza, il personale, la posizione.

Cons:

ogni tanto un po' di puzza dal bagno perché le tubazioni saranno un po' vecchie ma tutto molto sopportabile. Il letto matrimoniale in realtà è alla francese quindi in due si potrebbe stare un po' strettini (io ero sola). non so se ci sono camere con letti più grandi

Parfait !
Pros:

Tout !
Excellent séjour au Merrodi La Porta. Chambre très propre avec une literie au top. Le petit-déjeuner et varié et copieux, du sucre, du salé. L’emplacement est parfait pour visiter Istanbul à pied ou en transport puisque le métro n’est pas très loin. Le personnel est super accueillant. Je recommande et je reviendrai sans hésitation !

Cons:

Rien !

Lage super, Ausstattung und Sauberkeit verbesserungswürdig, Frühstück top.
Pros:

Die Lage war super. Das Frühstück sowie die Aussicht beim Frühstück ebenfalls. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und sehr bemüht bei Wünschen zu helfen.

Cons:

Das Bett war eher klein, als Pärchen ok. Für die zwei Burschen in der Gruppe mit 2m war das Bett definitiv zu klein. Die Sauberkeit in der Dusche ist verbesserungsbedürftig.. an der Decke blättert die Farbe ab und die Lüftung könnte auch mal gereinigt werden. Das Zimmer roch am Anfang etwas feucht und muffig.

Considering the value for money, I'd choose this hotel again, because of the staff and location.
Pros:

It is next to the Galata Tower, which is very convenient (although the accommodation is on a hill, so that’s something to keep in mind — but it wasn’t a problem for us). We could reach public transportation within a 10-minute walk (tram, bus, ferry), so it was easy to get everywhere. The breakfast was varied and very delicious, and the staff were helpful, kind, and attentive. The housekeeping staff cleaned and organized the room beautifully every day. We couldn’t hear the guests staying next to us at all when we were in the room.

Cons:

Our room faced the street, and the window (due to its design) could not close properly, so it was often quite noisy, but we got used to it — and in Istanbul you shouldn’t really expect complete silence anyway. The bathroom ceiling was moldy because of water damage, which was unpleasant and I was only comfortable showering in a flip-flop.

Pros:

Ci siamo trovati molto bene in questo hotel a due passi dalle torre di Galata e dai localini tipici. La camera era pulitissima, decisamente ampia e spaziosa, con tutto il necessario per rilassarsi dopo una giornata passata a esplorare la città.
Inoltre, abbiamo gradito tantissimo il pensiero che l'albergo ci ha offerto: un dolcino ,un souvenir e una calamita, un gesto davvero gentile che ci ha fatto sentire coccolati.Unica pecca il vicolo dove è situato l'albergo e in salita e piuttosto sporco ma non è colpa dell' hotel

Wij komen zeker terug!
Pros:

De centrale ligging. De Galata toren bevindt zich op 2 minuten van het hotel. Je stapt het hotel uit en bent meteen omringd door restaurants en gezellige terrassen. Het ontbijt is uitgebreid en met veel zorg bereid..De ontbijtzaal is de bovenste verdieping en geeft een geweldig uitzicht over de stad en de Bosporus.

Cons:

Niet van toepassing. Iedereen even vriendelijk

Coming home to Meroddi La Porta
Pros:

I loved the buffet breakfast because of the delicious, traditional Turkish foods, the location in Galata Tower district, which is next to İstiklal and all the excellent restaurants and shops, and the welcoming and thoughtful hotel staff. Great value for the price. That’s why this was my second stay at Meroddi La Porta.

Cons:

I only wish there was more space in my room, like a small table, for my luggage. Other than that, Meroddi La Porta is excellent. Looking forward to my next stay!
