An amazing stay surpassing expectations. At first I was a little sceptical since some reviews mentioned loud noise, especially as we were staying there on a Friday and Saturday night. However, the stay was fantastic. Staying in room 206, we were provided an early check in, full tour and a very dutiful explanation of the hotels offerings and recommendations of places to see and restaurants to visit. Eren went above and beyond with providing us with a list of great recommendations and showing us through the city map, highlighting his personal favourites away from the tourist traps. Greeting us each morning and saying hello on the street when we bumped into him when his shift finished, his hospitality was a real asset to the hotel. The rooms have everything you can think of, bottle of wine on arrival in the room, full complementary mini bar, all the amineties needed, loafers, shoe horn, polish, fantastic robes, slippers and a lot more. The rooms are decorated as you’d expect in a boutique hotel with a Soho House-esque feel and an unbelievably comfortable bed. We didn’t have any issues with noise with our room being at the back of the hotel, and for those wanting to explore different parts of the city, I’d thoroughly recommend. The rooftop bar had an international crowd with greats wines and cocktails and fantastic food partnered with great view and attentive service. For the price I don’t think you can beat it. Great hotel in a fantastic location.

Loved the hotel

Amazing stay at hotel. The standout from the experience was the staff. Always so helpful. Sinan on the front desk was lovely and always smiling and wanted to do everything he could to make my stay perfect. Proper Turkish breakfast was superb on the roof terrace. The location is great too if you want to experience the city. You can walk across to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia and you have all the delights of Beyoğlu on your doorstep. I want to come back here with my family and allow them to experience the hotel too.

Overall, we would highly recommend this hotel. It is perfectly located in the heart of the bustling Beyoğlu district/neighborhood, close to the Galata tower, and also still centrally located for you to maneuver to other neighborhoods, ferry points, and sites. When you step into the hotel, it feels like a small oasis. The service is personable and helpful, while the rooms/space are clean and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend.
