Our experience at Nabu was great, located in a perfect area to see the Galata Tower, the port promenade and much more on foot, a quiet area but with enough great places to dine and more. Totally recommended.

The hotel is located on busy street with shops, cafés, bars and restaurants around. Staff is really friendly and the breakfast selection is great!
Selin, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Terrific location, especially for boarding cruises at Galataport, and the property is well maintained and offered a very nice breakfast. The area is noisy at night, though, so not ideal for light sleepers.
Chuck, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nabu is a wonderful hotel - not too small, not too large! So convenient to everything - many restaurants and important tourist sites Next to Galataport, but also only 4 minutes to the most useful tram stop Just moments from the Golden Horn and Galata Bridge. I have visited Istanbul 9 times over last 20 years and will stay at Nabu whenever I next visit. The hotel staff are so friendly and helpful for any needs a guests might have.
Stephen, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice hotel with a very good location in terms of dining options and transportation accessibility
Sara, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient hotel to take tram or walk around the very nice karakoy and Galata port area. Definitely worth the price point and everything was well maintained. Just be aware that there are some club noises at night.
Gary, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very modern hotel with amazing and helpful staff. I also loved the area we were in, lots of bars and amazing restaurants. You are at the Galata tower in 15 minutes and on the Galata Bridge in 10 minutes. Room was clean and modern. Will definitely stay here again!
