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.

The standard rooms are very small, barely any space to move around for 1 person. The terrasse has a perfect view of Galata Tower. However the workers on the terrasse have an attitude and one worker started talking to me very rudely in front of all guests asking me my room number and raising his voice, when he had already taken my number when I got to the breakfast area a couple of minutes ago, it was embarrassing, they think I will try to steal breakfast from them? We were staying for our honeymoon, none of the staff mentioned us anything even though I had left a message about it. The breakfast spread was also very poor, seems like there is a lot of things going on but no taste and the service is slow for beverages. We had to ask 4 times before getting our glass of juice and by the time we got served we were done with the breakfast. You will definitely be wakened up by the morning prayer call, no sound isolation. If you are looking to stay close to Galata Tower with a nice view terrasse, this is the hotel. The front desk staff were okay, nothing special. Some of the staff from breakfast ruined our stay with their attitude and their behaviour, because of that, I will stay somewhere else next time.
