We stayed for 4 nights. The hotel is an old building, with loud noises coming from outside and inside. We stayed on the 4th floor and the floor above us was the rooftop breakfast area. Every morning, a lot of noise interrupted our sleep coming from the kitchen and seating areas. The room heating didn’t work and the family had 2 terrible nights. The staff onsite is inexperienced and completely clueless how to help the guests. The breakfast is good. The rooftop views are excellent while enjoying the breakfast. Overall, the value for money is terrible- look for better options to stay. This hotel is everything but luxury. Frankly, it spoiled our vacation in Istanbul, which otherwise was perfect.

Room 147 4th floor is very loud during breakfast and dinner. Due to being on the top floor and dining area above the room. When chairs are moved around you’ll hear everything down in the room. It gets pretty annoying if your trying to get some sleep during breakfast time which is 8am-11am.

Nice place and views, right next to the Galata tower. Be prepared to climb a lot since the hotel is on a hill. Some of the rooms are very small. Would have rated higher but the hotel over booked and moved us to their sister hotel for one of the 2 days.

Quaint comfortable room with classic feeling furnishings. Helpful and attentive service, very good breakfast. Panoramic view from roof, but staff don't permit photos with interchangeable lens cameras "because the hotel is a designated historical site." And they said that status could be at risk if I was cought using my camera on the roof.

I would stay at this hotel again. I had a wonderful experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, making the stay even more enjoyable. The location is excellent, situated in a very central area that's convenient for exploring the city. One of the highlights was the rooftop. The views are absolutely breathtaking. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay.

The hotel was well located for the type of trip taken. Everything about the hotel was very good, with the exception of the excellent service. All hotel employees encountered were friendly and professional. Of particular note was the outstanding services provided by the front desk staff Some of the best service I've ever experienced at a hotel.

This is a very charming and cozy Ottoman era historic hotel, with beautiful hand painted designs on the room walls. Plenty of hot water and good water pressure in the shower. It's very clean. The staff were all fantastic - friendly and efficient. The front desk staff went out of their way to be helpful and they speak perfect English. The daily hot and cold breakfast buffet was scrumptious! All kinds of fresh baked breads and pastries, fresh and dried fruits, salads, cheeses, yogurts, olives, jams, nutella, eggs, sausages and more. The waiters are very attentive and the hotel plays beautiful background music in the lobby - bossanova and classic soft jazz from the 1940s or 50s, giving you a feeling of stepping back in time. The hotel is located in a central location, 5-minutes' walk to the Galeta bridge and 1 minute to the Galeta water tower. It's close to public transportation and walkable to most historical sites, (Blue Mosque, Aya Sofia, Grand Bazar, Ottoman palaces, cruise boats on the Bosphoros, and more. There are cute cafes, restaurants and shops all around the hotel. As a woman, I felt very safe walking alone in this neighborhood, even at night. There are lots of people around and the shops are open late, so it has a bustling feeling. I will definitely stay there the next time I go to Istanbul.

Beautiful, elegant hotel, full of charm and you just can’t beat the location. A few minutes walk to Istaklal street, in one direction and to the Pier and tram (to get to mosques and bazaar) in opposite direction. Our room was beautifully decorated, spacious, with a beautiful bathroom but the room was lacking light with only two of the three lamps available working. There is no full length mirror in the room but staff kindly delivered one to our room upon request. Breakfast was located on the 5th floor which included outdoor terrace. The view from the terrace is just amazing! The breakfast buffet was generous and while most staff were friendly the woman behind the bar, with long black hair was extremely rude every single day!

Great Rooftop, not so good room

The location is close to the Tower and the rooftop restaurant has a great view. The room was very small with no shelves or room to put things and it is very loud with doors slamming in the hallway (no sound proofing) and there was a cockroach in the room. Service was good sometimes and very poor other times. Not very friendly.
