I stayed one night at the hotel. Upon arrival, my room was upgraded completely free of charge, and the communication before my arrival was very positive. The team was very welcoming, especially a young man at the reception who was very helpful during check-out. The breakfast was great — there was a good selection, and everything was very tasty. The location is also excellent, with everything within walking distance.

This was my second time in Istanbul, and I really won a lottery with this hotel. Great location - right by metro, so getting to and from the airport is a breeze, and it's easy to get to any touristy locations. The room was quiet. Amazing considering it so loud outside. And the best part is staff - they are all amazing!

Great location. Great food. Great view. My room was a bit small but lacked nothing. And who wants to spend too much time in your room when the most beautiful city is at your doorstep?! Well recommended and I will return.

The staff were amazing at the hotel. It is a smaller boutique hotel and rooms are on the smaller side but the location and staff make up for it. Breakfast could be improved. Options were a bit limited and very limited meat options (I only saw deli meat). The pancakes were very cold and hard. Need a variety and change of menu daily.

Great Location!

The Galata Times Hotel was a bit of a surprise, both good and bad. The location is wonderful as it is close to the Galata Towers, the famous Istiklal Street and a plethora of hotels and shops. We’ve eaten at the lovely rooftop restaurant at this hotel before, but we’ve never stayed at this hotel. Unfortunately, the room was much smaller than I had expected. There was a terrible odor of sewage in the hallway and in the room. And there were hairs on my boyfriend‘s pillow. The mattress was a little harder than I preferred. The shower was amazing and the bathroom was spacious. One of the best things about this hotel is the staff. They were kind, friendly and accommodating. The breakfast is the other best thing about this hotel. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet. Kudos to Resit, Barrett, Hasan and Yusel. Thank you for taking great care of us.

Great hotel. Exceeded my expectation. Renovated and all conveniences. Walking to Istiklal and Galata Tower. Metro is right outside door. Buses are aroubd the corner. Breakfast was delicious. And view from Breakfast place was breathtaking. Only downside is the staff during breakfast doesnt really offer any help or ask. They just stand and watch. Also they cover the bread out of reach. Not sure why. Otherwise best hotel in the area. I would stay again.

Unfortunately, I will not come back to this place and there are Two reasons… noise from out of the window cars beeping and people yelling from 2-6am and second, which is main one the smell in the room coming out from the bathroom and looks like there is a big sewage problem…. It’s toxic and not pleasant to smell.
