The hotel is located in the heart of Istanbul. You can easily walk everywhere. Also, the metro station is right next to the hotel. All the hotel staff were very nice. They arranged our transportation from the airport so we didn't have to deal with taxis. They gave us information about all the tours we could join in the city. I recommend the Bosphorus dinner tour to everyone. I will definitely come back on my next trip to Istanbul.

We stayed at this hotel for four nights during our first visit to Istanbul. We loved this hotel very much. We think it is the best hotel in Karakoy. The hotel is conveniently located and easy to reach all attractions. We are very grateful to Mr. Efe and Mr. Harun from the reception team and especially Mr. Sedat, the front desk chief, for their help during our stay. Mr. Sedat arranged a great room for us with a view of the main historical sites of Istanbul. The room was very clean. The breakfast was rich and the environment was very nice. They arranged the best vehicle to pick us up and drop us off at the airport. We would recommend this hotel to everyone. We thank the reception team and the hotel manager for everything. Thank Mr. Sedat for the very warm send-off.

Staff was amazing, helped us with everything we needed, on our second day they even went out to find a very specific battery for my film camera that I would probably spend all day looking for. Location is perfect, near Galata and easy to cross over to the Bazaar, Hagia Sofia etc. We loved the view from our room as well:)

Galata Tower

Medieval Galata Tower pierces the clouds above Istanbul’s skyline, a soaring sentinel to the north of the Golden Horn. A replacement for a previous tower that was destroyed in the crusades, this one was built by the Genoese in 1348. or hundreds of years, it was the tallest building in Istanbul – and its uppermost balcony still offers unrivalled city views today.

    While the tower is great vantage point, overlooking the entire Golden Horn, the admission tickets are quite expensive and the place is crammed with crowds. If you decide to visit anyway, aim for the 30min before sunset

    Another joke which is not even Turkish, as most of the monuments. Anyway. 35 euros just to inside the tower. If you want to use the lift you’ll pay 60 euros to enter. Told you these guys are born thieves! Amazing.

    It's good that they have installed a set of lifts to get to the top of the tower. So you are not walking up too many steps. Best to get there early or towards sunset to see spectacular views with the mosques and the sea across Istanbul.

    Definitely a must. Go in the early evening as the night lights are awesome. Museum Pass is a must - this is one of the places you can visit with it. I bought a 5 day pass for 700 TL at Topkapi Palace.

    Absolutely yes! Istanbul is open restaurant. In every corner you can find perfect meal. Good to try fish restaurant in Bosphorous, or in Çiçek Pasajı. And also good to try restaurants in Maiden or Galata Tower with perfect city view. What it can be better than that!
