Buena ubicación y buen lugar
Pros:

Muy bien distribuida la habitación y el personal amable.

La red de wifi proporcionada nunca funcionó. El personal de la recepción solo está cuando se hace el check in, sin embargo, atienden las consultas vía WhatsApp con prontitud.

Galata Hotel Review
Pros:

We loved the vintage vibe of the room with a modern touch. Everything was clean and nice. Great shower and useful things such as kettle, hairdryer. We appreciated the cleaning service and getting fresh coffee and water every day. The staff was really helpful and kind.

Cons:

There is not much to complain about. The stairs were a bit steep and could be dangerous for someone with limited movement ability. Otherwise, everything was fine.

Pros:

I had a great stay at this hotel. It has a good location, comfortable room, and, above all, very friendly and welcoming staff.

A special mention goes to Salma, the receptionist, who was incredibly friendly and helpful. She gave me some great tips that made my stay even more enjoyable and was always willing to help whenever I needed anything.
Looking forward to come back soon.

Cons:

The only thing I missed in the room was a sofa or comfortable chair. It would also be great to have some furniture on the balcony, as it would make it even nicer to sit and relax there.

Thank you
Pros:

Great value for money, really comfy bed and bathrooms. Good location near to the metro, plenty of restaurants and cafes etc.

Cons:

Street noise could be a bit loud but I think that’s inevitable in Istanbul.

уютный отель в шаговой доступности до основных локаций
Pros:

крутой маленький отель в отличном расположении, персонал очень отзывчивый, проблем не возникало, приехали рано - нас сразу заселили. до метро 10 минут пешком в гору) рядом прекрасная пекарня где подают фантастические пиде, причем мы уезжали в 5-40 утра - нам оперативно испекли пиде с собой на завтрак - просто супер. до парома на азиатскую сторону 10 минут медленным шагом. мы жили на последнем этаже- лестница на самом деле очень крутая.

Cons:

сложно тут что-то улучшить. все хорошо
единственное - хорошо б почистить фильтры кондиционеров в номерах - на них просто гигантские скопления пыли и грязи
