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!

Hotel is perfect for Galata Tower and Taksim Square but beware that airport transportation struggle to find it due to one way system on narrow approach roads

Did not sleep at all. At first look the room seemed fine and the ahower was excellent, but the room faced the street which was noisy all night with people and cars and the seals on the windows were so bad, that you could hear the noise as if the window was open. Pillow and mattress were extremely uncomfortable. Switched air con off, but it kept making dripping noises all night. Would not book again…

Konumu güzel. Eşimle bir gece konakladık. Temizdi. Fakat oda çok ufak. Bizim valizimiz ufaktı. Birden fazla ve büyük valizle odaya sığamazsınız. Uzun süreli konaklamaya uygun olmadığını düşünüyorum. Odaya ilk girdiğimizde havasız geldi. Sigara kokusu vardı. Bunun dışında bir sorun yaşamadık.

Posizione strategica

Hotel situato in posizione strategica per raggiungere a piedi la torre di Galata, İstiklal Caddesi, ponte di galata e Karakoy, servito da molti mezzi di trasporto nelle vicinanze.
La nostra stanza era spaziosa, pulita e dotata anche di un piccolo balcone. Personale cordiale. Purtroppo la struttura si trova in una ripida salita, quindi non agevole per chi è dotato di scarsa mobilità
