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.

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.

Parfait emplacement et personnel exceptionnel
Pros:

Le personnel de l’hôtel était extrêmement gentil et à l’écoute. La literie était excellente !

Cons:

Dommage que l’hôtel n’ait pas d’extérieur et que le petit déjeuner ne soit pas en buffet, il est servi directement à table mais du coup beaucoup d’aliments sont gâchés.

Great location - boutique hotel
Pros:

The hotel is small and really well located - the breakfast was generous and the staff were excellent

The photos make the room look a lot bigger than it is - but it was still comfortable and spacious enough

Everything was perfect.
Pros:

The character and design of the building. Every detail is thought about. Kind and warm staff like Umut , he honestly couldn’t do enough for us. The quality of the bathroom wash, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner was such a nice touch. I loved the product so much I sourced it and purchased some to take home. The bed was extremely comfortable. Room was clean and the re was absolutely no noise at night . Location was great with restaurants nearby . We will be back .

Cons:

Nothing
