The staff were really friendly and chatty. Restaurant was amazing! Delicious food and wine for a really good price. Rooms were comfortable and well designed. Across the road there is a nice main street with restaurants and bars. There is also a nearby Starbucks. The train is only a few mins away taking you further into the city.

Briana United States of America

Everything. The location was a plus, as it was close to all transportation facilities like the ferry, metro and bus station. Also, the breakfast was an open buffet and was so tasty, many thanks to the chef, such an amazing lady. Also, special thanks to Ahmet and yassin and everyone working in the hotel. Also, the rooms were very clean and there is daily housekeeping.

Sub is in a fantastic location to enjoy the bustling Karakoy neighborhood. Many great restaurants and nightlife spots are within a few steps of the front door. We particularly enjoyed Chez Moi, Berlin, Mukellef and the restaurants in the new Novotel - go for dinner at Murver for a gorgeous view and delicious meal! Galata Tower is a 10-minute walk and Taksim Square is about 20 minutes. Staff was super friendly and helpful - shout out to my new friend Firuz and his excellent customer service. The yummy breakfast spread was a great bonus and the rooms/ beds are comfortable. Sub felt more like a cozy bed & breakfast than a hotel to me and a great value overall! Would absolutely stay here again.
