The hotel was a little hard to find as in an uphill and there are a few steps to navigate with luggage It’s pretty self serve but adequate room. Spa downstairs in the basement seemed to lack privacy As a hotel guest I was able house the sauna a bit which was nice. My door key didn’t work and they had to call the Servicd company which was a pain. Very self serve type of place

Simple, chic boutique hotel in a convenient area easily walkable to food and shopping. Friendly, professional host. The room was simple and a little on the older side but had a/c, coffee/water, was clean, and faced onto a quiet lot. Overall would go again. Be warned that the entrance is on a steep hill, for those who might need help walking.

I recently stayed at the Galata Royal Hotel in Istanbul, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The hotel’s location is unbeatable—everything is within walking distance, from transportation options to a wide array of restaurants, shops, and local markets. You’re just a short stroll away from the vibrant Taksim Square and some of Istanbul’s most famous historical sites, making it perfect for exploring the city. The hotel itself is fantastic—comfortable, clean, and modern, with excellent amenities. But what truly made my stay exceptional was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel at home, and I want to especially mention Baris. He treated me like family, always ensuring that I had everything I needed and offering helpful recommendations for things to see and do around the city. His kindness and generosity were beyond what I expected, and it truly made my time in Istanbul unforgettable. If you’re looking for a hotel that combines a great location, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Galata Royal Hotel is the place to stay. Highly recommended!
