Definitely thumbs up for this hotel. It is located in the heart of my favorite city in the world -Istanbul so you are within walk away from pulsating Istiklal Avenue, music bars, nice restaurants and the Bosphorus. Beautiful historic building provides the atmosphere that you are looking for when you are world's major cities such as Istanbul. Very friendly staff... more

The only thing that is great about the hotel is its excellent location which is in the middle of almost everything as well as the building's exterior. Contrarily to what you may expect from its website description (I was expecting a small design boutique hotel with all related facilities) everything has been dissapointing. We have been assigned one of the... more

I stayed for 4 nights at the Galata Antique Hotel. The location is just amazing; steps from the subway, tram and the street ith the most fun and amazing nightlife ever! It is in the middle of all the action, so maybe if you want a quiet place this might not be the best location. We loved having lots of... more

We found Galata Antique Hotel to be a very good value, mostly for the primo location and exceptional, friendly service. Rooms are not huge, but plenty of space by New York standards. Bathroom was clean with small but separate shower. Breakfast provided on the roof terrace was a beautiful start to each day, overlooking Galata Tower and a view towards... more

This hotel is at the top of Tunel station and just steps away from other mass transit and the shopping street Istiklal, in the Beyoglu neighborhood. You can get anywhere in the city easily and nightlife is walking distance. Stayed here 6 nights. It was very warm but the A/C worked well and kept the room cool at night. The... more

We only stayed one night in the hotel, while waiting for our apartment rental to open up. As others have said, the location is perfect. I do strongly recommend staying in the Beyoglu (north of the Golden Horn)part of town. There are lots of restaurants -- chic, traditional, cheap and everything in between -- and the area at night is... more

We chose the hotel because of it's location. In this respect it was excellent. Room and bathroom were small but perfectly adequate and I got a very good deal on the price anyway, so can't really grumble. There is a roof terrace which gives great views across to the old city and the Galata Tower. The staff are friendly and... more

Hotel is in a prime location! It's right next to the tram, all the stores, bars, restaurants. It's constantly busy with people. Catching the train to Sultanahmet is easy. Staff is very helpful! Mohammed is very friendly. Room is clean and sufficient. more

Arrived just after dark, which mean it took some time to find the lights in the room. The main ceiling lamp had failed so lots of groping in the dark. I like a nice firm bed but theirs have no give at all so I have had bad hip pain since arriving. The bed was unmade the first day. Despite... more
