I was extremely satisfied with my stay at the hotel. The room cleanliness and comfort were excellent; every detail was thoughtfully considered. The staff were extremely friendly, attentive, and professional. From check-in to check-out, I truly felt like a guest. The location was very advantageous and provided great convenience in terms of transportation. Both the quality of service and the overall atmosphere exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend it and would like to choose it again.

My stay at this hotel was unfortunately a bit underwhelming. A few basics were missing right from the start: no notebook or pen in the room, and not even a proper chair to sit on. There was also no room for it, tbh. The cleaning staff would leave the windows open all day so when we got to the room in the evening, there was a strong BBQ/smokey smell coming in, which wasn’t very pleasant.

Housekeeping was inconsistent: the tea was only replenished once, there were no face towels, and I ended up with two shampoos but no body wash. Small details, but they add up.

Noise was also an issue. I was woken up by people moving chairs at 1 AM and again at 3 AM, which made it hard to get a good night’s sleep. Room was located under the breakfast room and despite me bringing this to the attention of the guest reception, nothing was done.

Lastly, despite booking through Expedia, I didn’t seem to receive any of the usual perks that come with it.

Overall, not a terrible stay, but definitely not what I expect when staying at a 5*.

Staff were polite and nice. Excellent location. Breakfast was ok, not a huge selection. We only chose this hotel as it had a spa which we couldn't use as it was fully booked on the day we had free, so highly recommend you book way in advance your 30 min allowance to use the facilities.

This was my second stay at this hotel, and there are definitely things I like about it. The location is great, the staff are kind and helpful, and overall it’s a comfortable place to stay.

We booked a Superior Golden Horn View Room because one of the photos showed a corner panoramic view of the Golden Horn. However, when we arrived, I realized the view from our room was not what I expected. The staff explained that a different photo actually shows this room, and the one I was hoping for was a Junior Suite—but there was no way for me to know that from the listing.

I was willing to pay extra to move to the Junior Suite, but unfortunately it wasn’t available. The hotel apologized and offered us a different room, which we accepted, though I was still a little disappointed.

It’s now been a month since my stay, and I see that the same misleading photo is still shown under the wrong room category.

Just a note for travelers: if you are booking the Superior Golden Horn View Room, be aware that photo #9 does not represent this room.

The hotel is quite nice. However, the area around it seems abandoned. The building right in front of the hotel seems like a ghost town.

When I arrived at the hotel, I did not receive any welcoming gifts or showcases of how to get around the city. I had to ask for all this. My friend who was staying in Istanbul at the same time at his hotel received thousands of gifts and treats every time he entered the lobby. They also gave him a free IST card to get around the city. They walked him around the area to help understand how the city works. His hotel was 4 stars and this one is 5 and didn't do bare minimum except charge 6 dollars for a box of gum. I wouldn’t recommend staying here after hearing all the other great hotels out there.

My friend stayed at the Golden Horn Bosporus hotel.

From the moment we arrived until the time we checked-out, we were treated like royalty. I say that literally. The staff were amazing. If I had to list the names of those that went above and beyond, I would simply write \"All\". We stayed for 9 days 8 nights. The room was spotless and perfect. Everything we needed was there. (On my wife's birthday, the third day of the trip, we came back to our room and an amazing, and delicious, chocolate cake with Happy Birthday written on it with plates and a whole spread, was left in the room. I never told them it was her birthday) The view from our room plus the view from the restaurant were stunning. An amazing lounge area for drinks in the lobby.

Location could not have been better. We walked everywhere. Galata Tower is a brief, steep walk from the front doors as well as the Galata Bridge

If you are still scrolling through hotels and are reading this review, I urge you to book your stay here. You will be extremely satisfied. We will definitely be staying at this hotel again and again. 5 Stars+

Thank you.

Really disappointed. We arrived at night to be shown to our room, we only released in the morning it had no outside windows!! So was dark and had no air.
Imagine putting guests that are staying for 3 nights in a room like that. I was really excited about the stay, was really disappointed. Front desk staff were cold, it wasn’t a nice atmosphere.

As a family of 10 we thoroughly enjoy our stay at the Galata Hotel at the end of October 2024. We were there 3 nights and 4 days. Hotel is pleasant, the rooms were large and very comfortable. The hotel accommodated us by having all our rooms next to each other. The staff and service was impeccable, very warm, welcoming and attentive. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone for making our holiday special. The location is great and near shops, cafes and restaurants. Advisable to be fit as there are some steps and some steep roads not lasting more than a few minutes before you enter the main tourist area.

Overall stay was okay. Property is in a great location in gálata and nearby the tram / lots of rooftops / going out areas.

Room itself was really nice and clean. Overall service was fine as they were trying their best.

Would rate this hotel a zero for VIP access benefits. I had to repeatedly ask for the spa discount and welcome drinks as they were not offered at checkout. I made a spa reservation that they messed up and then they didn’t have anywhere on file that I was an Expedia member so it was a huge hassle to get the discount. Made for a disjointed stay — disappointing as I spent 6 nights there.

The Galata is a wonderful hotel with friendly staff, delicious Turkish breakfast, and well-appointed rooms. The Turkish bath on-site is very nice, with similarly amazing staff and the amenities you would expect. My only issue, and not one the hotel can control, is that the area immediately around the hotel is in a state of transition. Many buildings are under construction and its difficult for car services to reach. It's not really a big deal because once you walk closer to Galata Tower, things are nicer again. If you're reading this 6 months from now I'm guessing much of it has cleared. I'll also acknowledge we stayed in mid-February, which is definitely the off-season, so that could partly be the cause.

Overall an amazing experience and one I would repeat next time I'm in Istanbul. Definitely order the Turkish breakfast in your room and the Turkish bath!

Beautiful Interior design, “Autoban”did amazing job yet again. Amazing breakfast area. Definitely include the breakfast option, worth it. Hotel is very Clean and is at a very central location. If you like walking and exploring a new city, this is your area in Istanbul. Most beautiful sites are walk in distance.
Parking option available but expensive and streets are very narrow and hard to navigate during the rush hour. “Hamam” is extraordinarily beautiful but 30 mins limited access doesn’t make much sense, considering at least 1 hour is needed. Make reservations to “hamam” no walk ins! Staff is friendly, very kind but they make you feel like they rather are doing their job only. They do not make you feel home so much as far as hospitality idea goes.
The ambiance makes the hotel worth staying. Roof bar has a good view to enjoy couple drinks.

Rooms are small and bathrooms are really tiny.

Very low chance of getting room upgrades with your vip access.

Shampoo, conditioner and body wash is good quality.

For us this was the perfect location. A couple of minutes from the Galata bridge and access to the old town and minutes away from both the Karakoy area and the Galata Tower albeit up a steep hill but this is unavoidable. Hotel itself was in excellent condition and staff helpful. Bonus is the onsite presence of a beautiful hammam.

Needs tweaking but good

It was a good hotel, and a good stay, but needs to improve a few things. Breakfast was wonderful and the best part of the stay, shower great, bed very good. Just missed a little bit of a local touch of a baklava at brrakfast. Check in felt like a series of upselling efforts for a better room, restaurant, spa, too much. The room has a few annoying flaws that should be fixed such as controlling the light is really difficult. The DND light on the door didn’t work, could not switch off / lower the sound on the TV and the phone does not have a button for front desk so getting in touch with them was challenging. Basics. Also, there was no wine opener in the bar so why sell bottles with a cork, maybe switch to a screw top - and they definitely could cut back on plastic in the room. Last airconditioning was either super strong cold or hot so we had to tweak it back-and-forth.

Having said all of that the hotel has a beautiful design, friendly staff, well located and is clean and the deluxe room was a good size. For what they charge I would just expect a little better.

This is a quiet hotel with very friendly staff.

(Or walk 4 mins to the Tunel funicular railway, the second oldest underground railway in the world after the London Underground for a ride to the top of the hill). And 5 mins from ferry terminal for the trip to Asia or Bosphoros Tours.

We booked a standard room, and at check in we were offered the option to upgrade. We chose. It to, as we were going to be busy in the city so didn’t need lots of time in the room.

We wish we did upgrade though as the room we had (1117) was very noisy. We could here people all night (concierge and night porters I think). This was all night, this part of the hotel was very noisy and we did. Or sleep very well.

When we checked out, the same lady who checked us in was checking in some other guests and she told them they we being upgraded to a better room because there was plenty of availability. This was a bit frustrating and felt almost like an insult. But that it what it is.

I am a travel agent and will probably recommend other hotels to my clients in the future.

I thought the hotel itself was perfect; rooms were lovely, clean, comfortable. The one point that was odd/not so great was the taxi situation. It's very clear that Istanbul has a problem with reliable drivers, so when we asked the desk to call a taxi for us and they said it was impossible, we really were shocked. This is a service that is usually standard in most hotels, especially those with higher ratings. I would highly recommend that the hotel sort out something to compensate for this; either have a list of recommended drivers ready to recommend/call for guests with fixed prices, or a list of reliable taxis, etc.

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel staff helped arrange transportation and tour guides. They also offered hammam.

My room was on the first floor (in the US this is the second floor) facing the interior lobby and the windows are quite thin. I could hear anyone and everything in the lobby. I played white noise on my phone to drown out all the other noise. The hotel says the room is non smoking but the smell of smoke still entered the room. Not sure if this was due to the restaurant being on the floor above me and smoking is allowed there. The smell was so strong that it burned my eyes and I would turn on the AC to help get rid of the smoke smell. Other than that, I would’ve given the hotel a 5.

Good location but could have done better

On the positive side, the location is good. It is very well connected to the tram station Karaköy, the metro station Shishane and the ferry station of Karaköy. On the downside, the surrounding is not the best with many cars coming and going. Because the streets are so narrow, the cars were blocking the way all the time. The room was also quite small. The bathroom did not have a socket for the hair dryer. The room keeper probably forgot to refill the bottled water. And even after we called frontdesk, nothing happened. We have expected more from a 5 star hotel.

I am very impressed with the everything! The hotel has a great location with the most friendly hotel staff I have ever seen. They know how to treat their customers. I stayed with my friends there for about 5 days. Next year we are coming back!

Great hotel!

Great stay just a few minutes walk from the Galata tower and only 30 mins or so walk from the Hagia Sofia. Comfortable room, great service and lovely rooftop bar!

Also, felt very safe in the current times, with temperature checks every time we entered the hotel, very clean and all staff wearing masks etc.

Perfect romantic hotel

This hotel was very clean, and the actual lobby area is beautiful. It is a fun hotel to explore and the staff were extremely attentive and friendly. The hotel has the layout of a cute quirky family owned bed and breakfast but the slickness of a multinational chain. Breakfast was excellent.

However, rules are inconsistent (door was open to terrace during breakfast so grabbed a table then after being served breakfast told 'you should not sit there...but anyway') also the hammam was firmly shut at 10am in the morning despite a sign saying it is open from 9am.

We were given a different room than what we have booked online on Expedia. The pictures shown on Expedia for a superior room was different than what was provided to us by the Hotel. They changed the room after we showed them the picture of the room on our Expedia Booking.

Clean and good location. However staff seems a little edgy at all times which is unexpected from a concierge. Secondly it says breakfast service on the booking...doesnt mean its free. Costs 15 euro.. all else is ok.

Loved the staff, super friendly and always ready to help. Rooms are beautiful and clean, very uniquely renovated. Great location, right next to the Galata tower. The view from the restaurant and 5th floor balcony is amazing, facing Sultanahmet.

Elegant Hotel with Character, Highly recommend.

I stayed here twice on my recent trip to Istanbul, enjoyed my first night that I cancelled my booked hotel a week later and decided to stay here again. My room had a breathtaking view of the Istanbul skyline, very clean. Even the breakfast room had a view of the Bosphorus, Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. You know you're in Istanbul. My bed and pillows were so comfortable too. There's a bar that also provides a great view. The hotel used to be a bank and has its original historic bones, adds a lot of character. Its historical Çeşme Hamamı was built by Grand Admiral Kaymak Mustafa Pasha at the end of 1720, so beautiful. The service was exceptional. Thanks for a great experience, I will return in a few months and will stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at the Galata Istanbul Hotel Mgallery. The staff were extraordinary trained, welcoming guests with a smile and super efficient. The front desk/concierge especially Elliya \"I hope I spelled his name correct\" and Frieda from the Breakfast Language were an exceptional staff. The property is super clean and comfortably equipped. Normally we like to stay in higher rooms for a better view but we were told that better to get lower room as it doesn't have the noise from the night club they have on the roof.
