It was simply the most terrible hotel I ever stayed at. Even though my reservation was for 7 nights, I was only able to last for 1 night and then I had to go to some other place. The room didn't even have enough space for me to unpack my bag. The bedsheets and towels were not clean, and the door was broken, the air conditioning didn't work, the bathroom smelled, and ... . I can't say enough about how awful the experience was. The only good thing about it was the beautiful view of the room and friendly staff.

Das dreckigste Hotel in Istanbul. Müll von den vor Besuchern lag noch im Zimmer rum. Schimmel, rost an den Armaturen, überall schmutz. Sofort wieder ausgecheckt. Einzig positive war das man mir den Betrag sofort ausgezahlt hat.

Ailecek tercih etmeyin

İyi yanları sadece çalışanların güler yüzlü oluşu Kötü yanları 1- otopark yok ve gecelik 40₺ 1 km uzağa bırakabiliyorsunuz 40₺ fazla ödeyip otoparkı olan bir otel tutmak daha mantıklı 2- otelin kapanmayan bir havalandırması var tam yatağın üzerinde uyumak çok zor devamlı motor sesi ve toz atıyor odaya 3- temizlikte kötüydü yorgan çarşaflar değişmemiş 4- balkon yok 5- çocuklu ailelere tavsiye etmiyorum

Like the location and friendliness of the staff, Galata neighborhood is charming with great shops and cafés. Rooms are clean and in good shape considering how old the building is. Also liked the restaurant with good choice of Turkish wine and spectacular views of the city. Disliked the cleanliness of the breakfast restaurant, that also operates as a jazz nightclub Disliked the loud music and stomping coming from rooftop restaurant on a Friday late night. I suggest breakfast to be served on 9th floor for the views.

In den ersten zwei Nächten (ein Donnerstag und Freitag) konnte man ab 22 Uhr SEHR laute Musik mit starkem Bass hören, wodurch das einschlafen schwer fiel. Diese kam aber nicht von der Jazzbar unter dem Hotel sondern von wo anders. Die Musik hat bis 1 oder 2 Uhr angedauert.

En vecka i Karaköy

Trevligt hotell i extremt centralt läge vid Gyllene hornet. Nära Galatabron, spårvagn, bussar, båtar, t-bana. Nära basarområdet och kryddmarknaden etc...Rummen små men med ok ac och wi-fi. Rent och snyggt. Receptionen i minsta laget om man är ett gäng som stämt träff för att ge sig ut på stan men å andra sidan bemannad med trevlig personal som kan sitt Istanbul. Minus: frukosten kunde ha varit lite generösare och mer varierad.

Não tem nada de “hotel boutique” este Purl. As únicas coisas boas são o chuveiro do quarto 602, a cama e a localização do hotel. O resto não condiz com a descrição e nem com o valor cobrado. O café da manhã é pobre, não tem nem um suco, nenhuma torradeira, nenhum iogurte ... não tem as coisas básicas ... e o café estava com gosto de queimado. Temperatura do quarto: eu estava com calor, botões não funcionaram - liguei pra recepção e o atendente disse que o hotel está neste período de “inverno” (primavera com 20 graus lá fora) apenas com aquecimento - então ou ele aquece todos os quartos do hotel ou desliga. Se eu estava com calor, a única opção seria desligar, não teria ar condicionado para refrescar l. Teria que abrir a janela e ficar com o ultra alto barulho da rua, carros, buzinas, música ao vivo do primeiro andar do hotel, além de cheiro de gordura pelos ares. Os atendentes, tanto da recepção, quanto do restaurante do térreo e da cobertura, de um hotel super bem localizado pra turistas, praticamente não falam inglês, ou seja, pra um hotel, fica bem difícil a comunicação. Quarto 602: telefone não funciona, tem apenas 3 cabides pra roupas de 2 pessoas, quase nenhum canal na TV, bem apertado (metragem super pequena) com uma cama enorme que não condiz, frigobar dentro do armário esquentando as roupas e objetos dos hóspedes. Elevador mínimo, então prepare-se pra aguardar ou use as escadas. No título mencionei que parece um hostel, não q hostel seja ruim, preço conta.

Das Hotel ist echt in einer guten Lage und bei den Preisen darf man sich eigentlich nicht beschweren, aber der Lärmpegel am Samstag in der Nacht war kaum auszuhalten. Wir bekamen auch angeblich ein Upgrate aber doch war das Badezimmer einfach viel zu klein. Das Personal hingegen war sehr sehr freundlich und wie gesagt die Lage war super.
