I had a great stay at SubHotel-- the staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast was really good, the room was clean and comfortable, and the location is great. Walking distance to the ferries, trams, and buses, as well as restaurants, cafes, and lots of historic attractions. Highly recommended if you're visiting Istanbul!

Great location with easy access to the tram, ferries and plenty of local bars and restaurants. The surrounding streets are quite quiet at night. Breakfast and gym/spa are located at another hotel a few doors up the street. Room was compact and had a musty smell, but overall was fine. I appreciated the cool bluetooth speaker.

Quite a bohemian funky hotel which we loved, in the heart of Karakoy, handy for transport links and in walking distance of many of the major sites. Breakfast was in their sister hotel down the street but choice was rather limited. No fruit or fresh salad and nothing if you were vegan. The sister hotel had a spa but the prices were outrageously high. Overall a good hotel to stay in with friendly reception staff who went above and beyond to help.

Smaller rooms but comfortable. Everything you need for a base while visiting Istanbul. TV has youtube and netflix capability which is nice for English speaking guests. Breakfast very good. Easy to walk across the bridge to Sultanahmet area as well as up the hill to Taksim Sq and Iskatel Street. For the price it is clean, safe, and convenient option. Staff were very accommodating to my requests. Baggage storage pre and post check in. Even allowed me to check in at 7:30am when I arrived.
