Value for Money

Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast described as 'fantastic' and 'absolute perfection' by some guests, but there are at least one report of no breakfast available for another guest — overall positive but inconsistent.

Pros:

Spacious room, well decorated and comfortable. Good location.

Cons:

We stayed 2 nights and the day in between, the room was not cleaned by housekeeping. We also ran out of toilet paper and as there was no one in reception after 16:00 we didn’t know how to find anyone to provide a replacement so had to buy some from a store across the street. I informed the property when we checked out and they were very apologetic.

Repetiría experiencia
Pros:

Habitación amplia, decorada con gusto y perfectamente insonorizada.

Cons:

Me gustó todo. Tal vez, por decir algo negativo, algunos días el desayuno no se podía tomar en el mismo local y te remitían a un hotel cercano asociado. Los días en que si que había desayuno en el hotel, era excelente.

Well-maintained beautiful room in great location
Pros:

The room was very beautiful and well looked after, and the location near Galata tower was great.

Cons:

Note that 'courtyard view' is not really true - the windows open out onto just a narrow 1m gap between two buildings.

Excellent location, beautiful charming room and extremely welcoming staff.
Pros:

Location was excellent. Some people left reviews saying there can be a lot of street noise, this was not my experience.

Cons:

Sound proofing between our room and the room upstairs was not great. One evening we could “hear” the neighbours upstairs.

Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and the hotel and staff were very helpful and supportive. Recommended!
Pros:

Fabulous hotel with beautiful rooms. Quiet, comfortable and private. Great location with access to the Galata bridge and beyond.

Staff attentive and welcoming.

Enjoyed the breakfast for 3 mornings in the main hotel (a short walk) was the views from the rooftop restaurant were amazing and the selection was very good.

Cons:

2 breakfasts in the Stone Inn was a lot more intimate which was nice but with limited selection. However, I'm sure if I'd asked they would have provided some other choice on request.

Pros:

Beautiful room and it smelled amazing

Cons:

Because it’s a heritage listed property, the walls / roof were quite thin and you could hear the people walking / talking in the room above

Leider nicht wie erwartet
Pros:

Für was es 5 Sterne gab ist mir unklar
Die Einrichtung war schick und hat optisch ansprechend ausgesehen.
Freundliches Personal
Service per Telefon war gut.

Cons:

Der Abfluss in der Dusche war sehr schlecht.
Der Boden war in die falsche Richtung verlegt. Beim duschen stand man im eigenen Wasser, was äußert unangenehm war.
Das Waschbecken war ekelig und nicht sauber, da war ein schmutzfilm entlang der Fugen.
Das Licht im Bad war schlecht positioniert.
Bei einem elektrischen Teil in der Wand, wurde die Wand mit einem papier klebeband angeklebt.
Wir sind erwachsen und erkennen die Gefahr aber für ein neugieriges Kind kann das schnell gefährlich werden.
Parken in der Nähe war nicht möglich.
Auf Anfrage ob man stornieren kann, wurde abgelehnt.
Somit mussten wir in der Unterkunft gezwungenermaßen bleiben.
