    penthouse room
    cozy pasta shop

    We loved the amazing view from our penthouse room. A cozy little pasta shop in the lobby was a good surprise! The hamam experience was refreshing after a long day of exploring. Plus, it's super close to Taksim and the historic sites.

    breathtaking view
    delicious food
    helpful recommendations
    cleanliness standards
    communication issues
    construction noise

    I had a nice time staying here. The location shines bright with easy access to many attractions. I loved being close to Taksim and the ferry. The view from my room was breathtaking, especially from the penthouse. The small pasta shop in the lobby served delicious food. The Turkish hamam offered a relaxing break after exploring the city. However, I faced some challenges as the air conditioning unit confused me. I struggled to get it to work properly. The staff were nice, but communication could improve, especially when asking for help. It became quite disruptive. Lastly, the cleanliness could be better—some areas felt dusty, and I noticed expired toiletries. My overall experience was good but could use some polishing in these areas.

    great location
    miscommunication issue

    Had an awesome time with friends! We visited the iconic Galata Tower and enjoyed great shopping nearby. The location is perfect, easy to get to attractions without needing a taxi. The staff was super friendly and offered helpful recommendations. Clean and cozy vibes all around!

    Our experience was slightly spoiled by a miscommunication regarding room arrangements, we wanted single beds but didn't receive confirmation. This could be an issue for future guests, so it's best to clarify with the property beforehand.

    great location
    surprising breakfast
    lack of amenities

    We loved our stay here! The location is perfect for exploring both vibrant and historic parts of the city, and breakfast was a delightful surprise each morning. Our three kids particularly enjoyed the convenience of nearby attractions, allowing us to explore seamlessly.

    My kids wished there were more kid-friendly amenities, like a game room.

    cozy pasta shop
    perplexing air conditioning

    A cozy escape in the city

    Woke up to the aroma from the cozy pasta shop below. The staff were cheerful and quickly assisted us with our needs, making every moment delightful.

    However, the air conditioning was perplexing and took time to figure out, and it made for some warm nights, not ideal for a summer stay.
