Our room was spacious and clean. The hotel is around the block from the Tower, which is nice and quiet. The tower area is vibrant and fun to be at night. A lot of restaurants, cafes and shops. We felt safe in the area. To get to the hotel we had be dropped off at the tower and walk to the hotel. It’s down an ally, the ally was dark and not clean, so it felt sketchy. At the end we liked being off the main road.

Unhelpful staff . Note that the “annex” is far from the hotel, has no lift looks to a service alley full of trash and the staff would not let us change rooms to the other building to have the family together . Had to make a new reservation . Terrible

Ideal location for young people/couples to stay. The city was busy, the views around were good plus good restaurant options - walkable distance from tram to get to anywhere you’d want to go in Istanbul. The staff was super friendly, especially Sevgi from guest relations was super helpful and catering. Greeted me and my partner with amazing decor and postcards with complimentary refreshments. Highly recommended!

Hello, I like this property because was close to Galatta Tower, my favorite place in Istambul. I like the shopping and dinning. It is wonderful. The hotel inside is quiet and safe. Breakfast very good. Staff at the reception was the best, they do the best to make you comfortable. Maintenance staff was very nice and same staff at breakfast time. I will reserve this place again if I travel. I did not like outside because street was not clean. Thank you so much Meroddi La Portal. Maria Egoavil

Awesome customer service

We had an awesome stay in this hotel. Thanks to Reha in the front desk who went above and beyond in customer service in our 3 night stay. On our last day, he helped me and my wife dragged our luggage to the end of the street because the taxi cannot enter the street at that time. Breakfast is delicious and the view from the restaurant at the 5th floor is beautiful.

Nice and comfortable stay

My recent stay at this hotel was fantastic, largely due to the exceptional service provided by Avnee and Can at the reception. Avnee's warm welcome and Can's attentive assistance made my stay truly memorable. Their dedication to customer service is commendable, and I look forward to returning in the future.

Excellent stay at Meroddi La Porta

Superb stay at Meroddi La Porta. It is a great value given the wonderful service from the staff, who really looked after us (thank you Umil and Cagatay!), the incredible proximity to Galata Tower (literally around the corner), and the comfortable (small) rooms and wonderful and scenic breakfast. We wanted to stay very close to the tower and not spend too much and are very happy to had found this hotel and would recommend it highly. This neighborhood has a lot of cobblestones and hills and requires normal walking ability. The street itself is small and a bit alley-like, but the location around the corner from Galata square makes it a superb value.

Comfortable option in Beyoglu

Modern, comfortable and clean hotel located just a few hundred meters from Galata Tower (the street it is on is not very charming, but the area is!). Breakfast buffet is offered on the terrace: nice views, but a little chilly in the cold months. I didn't need to have much interaction with the staff, but they seemed friendly. However, when I asked about the closest airport bus stop and how to reach the hotel from it, they answered that they could arrange a private transfer for me. Not what I asked!! Other than that, I had a pleasent stay.
