Lovely Hotel
Amazing location close to all Karaköy İstanbul activities and Galata area and Galata new port. Staff polite and friendly. good service I have received there. I stayed one night so I didn't face the hotel bad side. Same as what happened in other three hotels during my long vacation stay.

Old Hollywood movie Hotel
The lobby of the hotel is hollywood movie memorabilia. The rooms are themed after cities around the world. The bathroom was spacious so was the room. Unfortunately, the room needed some loving, the wall paper was coming down. The bed was missing parts of the headboard, the ceiling had lots of water damage. Overall, it was a good stay, solid wifi.

Lovely hotel in Istanbul
The hotel was lovely. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and fresh. The bed was memory foam and very comfy. Only complaint was there were no blankets, only sheets on the bed. We could have asked the front desk for a blanket, but didn't. We used the extra sheets from the cot for more warmth. Not too bad. Excellent hotel, would recommend.

Soulless, boring, don't bother.
We spent 11 nights in Istanbul at 3 different hotels. This was the least enjoyable for a variety of reasons, though the room and en-suite bathroom were at least spacious and in good order. We stayed here for 4 nights. Given the location on a pedestrianised side-street, it would be reasonable to assume that it would at least be a quiet location. Wrong! Taxis use this street as a rat-run, consequently the hotel's street-side tables are not as attracting as they might be. My wife was woken on several occasions by cars honking in the middle of the night. The main issue I have with the hotel was the lack of engagement from the staff. Sure, they go through the motions checking you in, taking your luggage, etc, but I got the impression that they didn't really care about my visit. When I asked about how I might take a trip to the beach, they just wrote down the name of a town nearby without any other useful info. Breakfast was rubbish. The first day there was at least a selection but on subsequent days there were simply plates prepared and covered with cellophane. The hotel has 20-ish rooms, yet during our stay we only saw 2 other guests in the hotel; this made it feel a bit like a zombie hotel. The lack of other guest didn't even prompt the staff to be more attentive to us. In summary, don't bother. You may be seduced by shiny pictures, but this place is entirely soulless. There are many, much better hotels in the same price range, where you will be treated like real guests.
