We enjoyed the hospitality staff, the neighborhood vibe, and the wonderful, clear-sky nights with the beautiful Galata tower in very close view. Love the place near shops, restaurants, and delicious traditional Turkish food. Stairs were our exercise, but it was worth it to be on the fourth floor. The room had two semi-open bedrooms and enough space to host three adults with different routines.

It was the first time for my husband and I to Istanbul, we could not have ask for a better stay, from the day we arrived to our departure the staff was amazing and very helpful, always willing to help us or advice us. Our room was very spacious and clean, we were in the very busy area but didn’t get any issues with the noises from the street. In our next visit we will definitely be back .

Lovely small hotel on a lively street. The two bedroom with balcony was wonderful! Spacious and breezy. No elevator was a nuisance for us, as the room was on the 4th floor. Other than that, the hotel was wonderful!!

We enjoyed our stay here. The location was central, close to the old town, public transportation and the ferries and trams. The coffee shop was very good and a lot of shopping nearby. The room was comfortable with a fridge and very small safe. The staff were excellent, very helpful with dining suggestions, booking airport transfers and just getting around. A good value small hotel.

The hotel has been sympathetically renovated and is very tasteful. My room was just as advertised. Staff were very friendly and helpful at all times. The hotel is in a central location near the Galata Tower. There are many gift shops and cafes on the same street as the hotel. The new Cat Museum (charming) is just round the corner, and the Dervish Museum is just up the hill. The ferries are about a 10 minute walk away, as are the Galata Bridge and the restaurants and shops around Beyoglu. The hotel is also close to the Tunel, the funiculaire which runs up and down the hill.

Great hotel for our 4 night trip to Istanbul. Super central and convenient location close to Galata Tower. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The in house coffee shop with resident cat was a very nice bonus. Rooms were excellent and well sound proofed so no noise from the street was heard. Would highly recommend people stay here for their trip to Istanbul.

Fantastic little hotel with welcoming staff

A charming, boutique, well located hotel with very friendly staff. The manager and front desk host were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The cafe has great coffee and food. I generally stay at Soho House but they were booked. What a surprise this hotel turned out to be. The hotel is on par with Soho and the price can't be beat! Don't hesitate to book.
