Galata Antique Hotel - Special Category - Istanbul

The room had central heating, a private safe, and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels - great amenities! the ideal location in front of Metro station Sishane made our stay even better.

the very amiable and extremely helpful staff was much appreciated. its classic room was elegant with different double beds, quirky touch plus a new carpet. the check-in was early and the atmosphere was elegant overall.

Lovely romantic and elegant rooms come with comfy beds. Elegant atmosphere and private bathroom.

Busy staff!

The hotel of choice in Istanbul. Wonderful venue, clean facilities, and extremely helpful staff. Rooms are beautiful, elegant with a new carpet and quirky touch. Very central location and near a metro station. Fresh and yummy food, great service.

Hotel was very close to the Istiklal Caddesi and to the funicular that takes you to the tram, which crosses the Galata bridge and goes to Sultanahmet. Breakfast terrace has wonderful view over Golden Horn. Breakfast was good.

Hotel seemed to be not very well maintained -- desk chair fell into pieces everytime you moved it, lampshade was missing, carpet was stained or dirty; however, the bathroom was very clean. Also there was a club right across the street which was pretty noisy at night -- might not be such a problem in summer with a/c running). Although hotel advertised wifi throughout hotel, we found it wasn't working much of the time and always would be fixed "in the morning."

The staff were very friendly and helpful. When I was 45 mins late for breakfast due to me forgetting about clocks going forward, they still whipped me up some food and hot coffee. Very nice views from the breakfast room on the top of the hotel.

It was a little noisy - there was a bar directly below my window, but it closed at midnight. Traffic noise wasn't so bad but you could hear a lot of sirens which were pretty noisy. Still... anywhere in this region of town would be as noisy.

The hotel is quaint and has a fabulous central location next to the city center, restaurants, cafes, great shopping, the Sishane metro station.

staff was very friendly & helpful

over-charged for use of telephone far too much

Slippers, which they provide for free and location, which is close to Taksim and Galata.

The building of the hotel is more than hundred years old, but the capital repair inside of the building was poor and absolutely not enough to stay there and feel comfortable. The smell of canalization in the rooms and so small bathroom, that if you use the toilet, your head is in the sink and you may wash you head at the same time.

the location was amazing, right in front of the Sishane Metro station. the hotel itself is situated in a beautiful historical building, adding to the charm of our stay. the rooms were incredibly clean and well-designed, with a comfortable bed for a good night's sleep. the rooftop veranda offered breathtaking views of the city. We were especially impressed with the helpfulness of the staff, particularly Serhat at the reception. He went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and provided us with great tips and directions for exploring the city. This is now our favorite spot in Istanbul!

No issues 😊.

I really enjoyed the elegant and charming ambiance of the hotel. The beautiful decoration with its beige and white contemporary tones or contrasting black and white decor added a touch of sophistication to the place. The general areas, such as the terrace, offered stunning views of the city, which were especially lovely during breakfast. , the hotel's accessibility for senior people was excellent, with easy access to the main attractions and close proximity to public transportation.

The only thing I would have asked for to enhance the vacation for senior people is for the children working there to provide better assistance to the guests. It would have been nice if they were more attentive to our needs and ensured a comfortable stay.

This place is perfect for a luxurious and comfortable stay. The location is fantastic, with easy access to public transport and walking distance to the popular Galata Tower. The nearby metro station makes it convenient to explore the city. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants in the area, offering a variety of dining options.

In conclusion, I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone.
