The stairs are a bit step to get to the entrance with luggage. The staff happily assisted us when leaving. Get the taxi to drop you off at the top of the stairs not the bottom like we did.

Excellent space, great views close to the Tram. Breakfast was excellent.

The breakfast was mediocre, which would have been disappointing if we were eating breakfast there every morning. However, the neighbourhood has a lot of great cafés to enjoy an excellent Turkish breakfast as well as mamy other options, which I would recommend to include in your experience, so this wasn't a huge problem for us. I would advise to book a room with a sea view, as this made all the difference. Without it, all of the steps up to the hotel entrance would just be a pain.

The room was spacious and comfortable, and the view of the Bosphorus was spectacular. Yes, the hotel is only accessible up many steps, but if this is not an issue, I think that it is worth it to enjoy the view, so a room with a sea view is highly recommended. The staff were very helpful and attentive in mitigating this by carrying our luggage and offering water amd refreshment whenever we would re-enter the hotel. The location is also close to Taksim and the T1 tram line and the ferry port so it was very convenient for getting around.

Dodgy loose fittings everywhere - easily fixed with a screwdriver

The friendliest staff and the proximity to the Kabatas ferry are the biggest pluses. Staff are fabulous and very helpful

Had no idea there were so many stairs. Difficult as we had so much luggage. Plus we are both over 70 and do not need to go up and downstairs Plus wallpaper coming off the walls in our bedroom and the towels in the bathroom need to be updated

Staff were helpful

Very friendly staff and an excellent breakfast with high-quality products. Slippers, a toothbrush and toothpaste, and a bathrobe were provided in the room. On arrival, the reception upgraded our room to one with a beautiful Bosphorus view. Great location as well close to subway, boats, bus and tram, we really enjoyed our stay!

That the pool was completely drained, the outdoor bar was not manned, and the seating area outside was never used with half the tables. Did not look like the images.

I liled how close it was to the main streets and tram lines for accessibility.

The breakfast was poor and some of the hotel could do with refurbishment.

The located in a vibrant area with lots of restaurants and easy access to the old city by tram, The room have a lovely view and the rooms were excellent.

The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and always willing to assist with anything needed. The location is perfect—quiet enough to relax, yet close to Taksim, Galataport, and public transport.

Noice isolation wasn’t really good. Coffee was most of the time finished at breakfast. Breakfast starts late - only 8 am. There were lot of stairs to get to the hotel.

Absolutely great views from room. Very friendly staff.

The pictures promise more than you can expect. The cleanliness of the floors could be improved.

Well-located hotel near the Bosphorus, albeit a little outdated – in this case. Short distances to the metro and tram, as well as to some sights. Very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was very good, but not very varied. The room was very large and satisfactorily equipped.

Many steps to get to the hotel entrance from the two adjacent streets. But if you take your time and use the railings it makes up for a nice daily exercise.

Great remodeled rooms. Great hot showers with great water pressure. Bedding was super comfortable too. The front desk and kitchen- cleaning staff were super engaged and friendly. Also very close to public transportation, small food stores, and drug stores.

It has about 200 steps in front of it so taking your luggage is an unforgettable experience however the staff gladly moved all our 6 luggages 100 steps up and down but still I felt so bad.

This hotel has fantastic view of Bosphorus, specifically in third floor, panoramic. Staff Yashem, Ghodrat and other gentlemen I forgot the name were fantastic. Kind, helpful and attentive.

There are stairs leading from the street to the property, although the staff kindly assisted with the luggage. However, it may be uncomfortable for guests with mobility issues or back pain.

The property featured a terrace with a great view. The rooms were clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was well located, close to tram and bus stops, and within easy walking distance of major attractions.

The hotel is located between several buildings and requires climbing a long stairs to reach it. Guests should be informed of this when booking.

The staff in the morning was so friendly. The breakfast was OK. Room size was acceptable. In general I recommend it for travellers few luggage " backpackers "

Noisy AV next to the window. Breakfast rather basic. Hotel can only be reached via long and steep stair.

Top location with great view over Bosphorus. Tramway stop very close. Staff very kind and supportive.

The safe in our room was not working. The management needs to replace this please.

Please understand that you have to climb lots of stairs to even reach the lobby of the hotel! I didn’t realize that from my research and when we arrived after midnight following a long day of traveling we had to climb 115 stairs with our suitcases. There is a lot I liked about the hotel but I want others to understand the setup better before booking. The staff were all amazing, helpful, pleasant and very kind! The room was comfortable, clean and well appointed. The view of the Bosphorus from our room was brilliant! We even saw a sub (Russian?) one morning as we were looking out of our room!🧐 Breakfast was also very good, with a lot of variety. Please take the hotel’s offer of the arrangement for a taxi to meet you at the airport. The price they offer is half of the fare that the other airport taxis quote and their own driver will make your arrival and departure as easy as possible. The hotel’s taxi driver will carry your bags and suitcases from the street to the lobby. Their taxi will also park on the street so you will descend to the lobby about 60 steps. We ended up with a random airport taxi driver who dropped us off on the lower street and we had to climb 115 steps with our suitcases.🥵 Please understand that you must be physically fit, and able bodied to stay at this hotel because there is no way to avoid the many stairs to get to the hotel lobby and your rooms daily after sightseeing, etc.

Step leading up to property are many so property only good for able bodied families.

Family run hotel. Very friendly and welcoming reception. Room 101 is a two bedroom apartment. Our main bedroom was very spacious with views over the Bosphorus for New Year's Eve. Two spacious marble bathrooms. Comfortable bed and lounge area with smart TV. Breakfast was simple and wholesome. Location is a 20 minute walk to Galata tower. Close to Dombalce palace. Very happy to book taxi and carry bags up to street upon check out.

The stairs were hell, you literally have to go up what seems like 6 or 7 flight of stairs to get to the hotel. After a long day roaming the city with 2 kids and a pram, climbing up by the end of the day was quite a challenge. Most of the staff were friendly except a couple who weren’t very friendly.

The location is perfect to say the least. View is extraordinary looking the river.
