Clean, friendly and helpful staff. Only thing I did not really like was, that you could not darken the room enough. We stayed in a duplex appartment, loads of space and very airy. If they would add some more curtains, or proper blinds, I would have given 5 out of 5 stars

We have just returned from Galateia Residence and are already wanting to return. The appartments are beautifully furnished and are immaculate. They are also spacious and comfortable. The location is perfect for visiting all of Istanbul with excellent dining and shopping within walking distance. Staff are wonderful and nothing is too much trouble and you are always greeted with a... More

This is an excellent hotel and the apartments are very well decorated and maintained. We rented two apartments (one two bedroom and another one bedroom) for our family stay. The woman who works at the front desk every morning is lovely and was so incredibly helpful. I wish I could remember her name. She helped us book the whirling dervish... More

You can go to a hotel in the old town and squeeze yourself in a 12 square meters old room, or you... More

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights from March 17-21st. We booked the smallest apt available but in reality, the space was massive. Lots of room for 2 people. We booked through bookings.com and had written a list of requirements and the hotel actually listened and heeded all our requests. They were very helpful in doing laundry for... More

Galateia is wonderfull located, close to Galata Tower and to metro and tram stations. Although Istikal street is just up the street the place is quiet. There are a lot of shops and restaurants in the neighbourhood but only small places to buy food so cooking a real meal is not easy. WI-FI internet works everywere and the bathroom is... More

In a very quiet street but Tunel tram station is only a minute of walk away. No taxi driver can find the whereabouts of the street but u can ask for Tunel station and just walk a bit if u hv no luggage. But your main visit will be mainly Old istanbul. This hotel is less convenient. The room (apartment)... More
