The hotel is located on a quiet street near the Galata Tower, in walking distance to all major attractions of the city. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, always willing to answer any questions about directions or call a taxi. The room was clean and modern, with comfortable beds, flat screen TV and a well-stocked mini.bar. The bathroom was... More

I have just returned from my 4 day break in Istanbul. Couldn't be happier with the choice of the hotel! when I stay in a hotel I need central location, the clean environment and the people I can turn to. I found all this in Galata la Bella. first it's right by the Galata bridge, Galata tower, ferry stations and... More

The hotel is very modern with nice furnshings, comfy bed and excellent power shower. It's on a back street but still close to all of the happening areas, an easy walk to get to most of the sites and good for the ferry if you are going to the Asian side and catching the express bus back to the airport....

The La Bella Hotel in Galata is hidden in a quite backstreet of this bustling city. The immediate surrounds are mainly empty buildings, but the hotel itself is of high quality. It is within short walking distance of the Galata Bridge, great restaurants, trams and other public transport and views of the Golden Horn and the Bosphorous. The staff are... More

This small hotel (27 rooms total) was reopened after renovation 4 months ago. So it is as much fresh as possible - everything is new. I had single room on the 2nd floor. It is very small but I think it is ok as a single. Pay attention that all single rooms there have no window view - you can... More

Hello, this hostel Bella Galata is perfectly located (accessible by foot from the old city of Sultanhamet as well as from the modern part).

The location of this hotel is ideal for most tourists and business travelers making it the "Best of Both Worlds" in terms of: - Accessibility to most major attractions in Istanbul - Being in a quite neighborhood and the ability to enjoy a good night sleep (which is not guaranteed in bustling neighborhoods like Sultanahmet, Taksim and Istiklal Caddessi) -...

A botique hotel very well rennovated, walking distance to major attractions in the city, the hotel's location itself is not quite nice but very convenient, the major tunnel is right behind the hotel and walking distance to galata bridge to the old town and city center "Taksim". Staff are very helpful, and they speak good English. Very clean hotel, breakfast... More

Very nice hotel. The only thing that is unbelievable is that they charge you for coffee at breakfast! Guys seriously? Come on! A boutique hotel cannot charge for coffee, if it includes breakfast it includes coffee.

Having read previews reviews about Galata La Bella, I had some ambitious expectations when I gave it a try. As many reviewers pointed out, the location itself is not vibrant, but it's only minutes away from major attractions. The metro station is easily reached from the hotel. Galata Tower is only a short, yet steep, walk away, and from there,... More
