Staff support in Galata for stress free stay

Appreciated luggage storage and help from Mehmet in booking a taxi to the airport. We stayed twice in between overnight tour with Crowded Hose tours to Gallipoli and Troy. Was great to take overnight luggage only and know the rest was safe in Istanbul. The Galata and Tophane area is convenient area to stay. T1 tram and Bosporus boats close by. Uphill walk to the Galata Tower with 360 views and history. Family room with balcony was in better condition than without. Little things like toilet button, but both have very tight space on bathroom. No door on second bedroom with twin bed. Good kitchen set up if you want to cook, but plenty of places to eat out close by. Supermarket and convenience stores also close. We had a traditional Turkish breakfast delivered at 8 on our last day, but made own breakfast other days. Used service to wash clothes based on weight of laundry bag with same day return handy when traveling. We were helped by staff at night when needed assistance with room key working, an iron etc but wanted to call out Mehmet who during the day gave us extra extra support.

We recently stayed at Selvese Suites in Istanbul for two days, and unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. To start with, the flush in the bathroom was broken, which is unacceptable for any hotel, let alone one that advertises itself as a “suite.” Even worse, they completely misrepresented the sleeping arrangements — they advertised sofas as actual beds, and we ended up having to sleep on uncomfortable sofas instead of proper beds. There were no comforters provided, no drinking water available in the room, and we had to explicitly ask for these basic necessities. The entire place felt hastily thrown together in a “Frankenstein” way, with odd combinations of furniture and design that made the space feel cramped and far smaller than advertised. Overall, we felt misled and very uncomfortable during our stay. I would not recommend Selvese Suites to anyone looking for a comfortable or honest accommodation experience in Istanbul. Also, they bring breakfast in your room with limited items, another false advertisement.

We stayed at Selvese Hotel and unfortunately had a major issue with the bathroom. There was a noticeable gap between the shower and the floor, which caused water to flood out every time someone used it. With four of us sharing one bathroom, it became completely unusable for the rest of the day after just one shower — a serious inconvenience. We raised the issue with management hoping for a solution, but were only offered a mop, which didn’t solve the underlying problem. It was disappointing that nothing more was done to address the situation during our stay. Aside from that, the hotel itself was fine. The location was convenient and within walking distance to most tourist spots, which we appreciated. But unfortunately, the bathroom issue really affected the quality of our experience.

I really enjoyed staying at this property. Before I even arrived the staff responded promptly to all my inquiries. Their communication with guests has been the best I have experienced in all my years of staying at hotels. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. The room was clean, comfortable and we (my family) had our own spaces. We stayed in a 2 bedroom type apartment. I would stay here again.

The property worked for us. Great location for shopping, food and exploring. $15 taxi to the grand bazaar. The bathroom would not be good for an over sized person. Or someone with mobility issues. There was mold on the floor next to the shower and the bedroom curtain was on the floor when we arrived. My husband fixed part of it so we had darkness, but couldn’t fix the other part. King bed was all springs. Husband checked and it was upside down. Not sure why and didn’t want to flip it over and find out. Kitchen was nice. Fridge, sink and small microwave. Tea kettle and I think a coffee maker. It’s not as bad as this may sound and maybe the hotel will fix these issues once they read this. The staff was great and very attentive and friendly. We stayed in the family suite.

I had a great stay at Selvese Hotel Galata. The location is perfect—right in the heart of Istanbul, just steps from Galata Tower and within walking distance of great restaurants, cafés, and public transport. The hotel itself is clean, with well-maintained, comfortable rooms that made for a relaxing stay. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities added to the overall experience. What really stood out was the attentive service. If you’re looking for a comfortable stay in a prime location, Selvese Hotel Galata is an excellent choice. I would definitely return!

Could have been better

The hotel room had no heat the entire stay. The provided space heaters but they did very little. There was a very large outside bathroom vent that let cold air in and a very noisy fan ran all day and night on the adjacent building by the vent. The only person that was very helpful at the front desk was named Onur

Istanbul trip

I stayed in Istanbul for the first time for 3 days. Really loved the area! Hotel was very close to T1 tram that will take you directly to main historic attractions. It is close to cruise boats as well, so you can take cruise on Bosphorus. Lots of small cute little cafes, shops and restaurants. Can easily walk to Galata tower, Taksim square and one of the big shopping streets. The room had everything you need. I work remotely and I would consider this hotel for a longer stay, especially because they have kitchen in the room.
