Great location in buzzy Karaköy. Spacious Superior room on higher floors with balcony. windows/sliding doors are double glazed & we heard nothing from the busy late night music bars. The included breakfast was excellent.

This is not a complaint - be aware hotel is situated on a pedestrian traffic free mall so your taxi may not be able to drop you off at the door. Best to arrange with hotel the easiest point for your transport to drop u off. it will only be a 2min walk away, so no big deal!

the location

the noise of the locals near hotel

Good location in Galataport and a 10 min walk to Beyoglu. Lovely room. Breakfast was on par with every other Turkish hotel. Short tram ride to Fatih area for Hagia Sofia.

Bar below and next door play loud music until early hours with very little soundproofing and bass vibrates the building. Very touristic neighbourhood but not far from a better area. Mini bar was ludicrously expensive €6 for 330ml efes. Can go to the Sok down the street and get 6 for the same price. No individual fridge to store items without the risk of being charged for mini bar items. Toilet is less than a meter from the bed if you are shy.

I would rather choose location to stay in Istanbul in Karakoy - as for now it's one of the most comfortable areas for me. 5 minutes walking from a wonderful Galata Port and new Istanbul Modern. The hotel is in the middle of series walking streets with all-the-day activity full of restaurants with different flavors and cuisine, bars, some music clubs. It can be active here and full of sounds (not over-loud but quite permanent in the evenings). Hotel beautifully fits the former old building that is significantly renovated outside and inside. Everything inside is new and up-to-date. Nice breakfast on the ground floor, good selection and traditional food, kitchen can prepare something of your choice. Rooms are not big but they are made cozy with just needed space (but more than in Paris, for example). Staff is very friendly. They have a lot of facilities for your visit.

I liked everything - the underlined features form the orient picture here. You just might take a notice that it's active and sometimes crowded area (locals and tourists as well). small streets, many cafes and restaurants. Buildings are close to each other, so there are cozy inner yards between them

Location, location, location, amazing vibrant part of Istanbul Design furniture room and hotel, trendy, hipster style, live music in the evening Good breakfast

Rooms are very small, we were lucky that we have balcony, so we can storage our stuff outside Rooms are little bit used, they should need some better care (cracks and dirty spots on the walls) When we arrive, staff was supernice, when we were leaving, they behave strange - not even ask about our stay, helping with the luggage...

The quiet rooms were soundproof and no music could be heard. Great comfortable beds, a good hotel bar in a good location. The staff is doing well, nice and friendly people working daily with a smile.

The breakfast was ok for one day. Turkish style, daily always the same herbs,salads,cucumbers and cheese. After three days we gave up and went to a bakery to get something better.

The staff was super friendly and helped with everything. You can also buy an e-sim card at the hotel which is also very convenient. The location of the hotel is also a 10 star. Middle of karaköy but also close to the galata port and you can easily walk to the bazaar on the other side. The rooms were clean and very luxurious bathroom. Everything was perfect!

Location was right in the heart of Karaköy, with a metro station (Tophane) no more than 5-6 minutes walk away. There was a beautiful uphill walk towards galata tower and a lovely new development parallel called galataport which is definitely worth a trip. Rooms were a nice size, balcony rooms are extremely loud at night but wasn’t too much of an issue for us personally. Rooms cleaned everyday to very good standard so overall very happy!

The noise on some nights were difficult to overcome so wouldn’t be ideal for families with younger kids. Also we opted to not eat the breakfasts on most days as they wasn’t a lot of choice and more of a “one size fits all” approach.

Definitely recommend this place. Clean hotel, interesting style. Amazing staff, great location very close to Tramvay and Galataport. A lot of restaurants, bars around. But just so you know bars around play music very loud and you might have issue if you like peace at night

Staff members 

Room was a good size and bed was very comfortable. Room was very clean with thorough cleaning every day. Excellent location close to trams buses ferry with lots of bars and cafes close by. Very good breakfast each day, staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again

The area has a lot of late night noise though this did not bother us. Closing the windows blocked a lot of this out though did not eliminate it completely. The breakfast was typical Turkish breakfast which meant it was virtually the same every day, though everything we had was delicious. A menu might be useful so that people could choose what they wanted.
