Nice room, renovated hotel, good location, busy outside but quiet in the rooms. It’s a touristic area but if you walk 15 min you can find local neighborhoods and good restaurants.

We thought the decor was amazing, felt very comfortable and cozy. The room was beautiful, and although small-they make the most out of the space. Very friendly and helpful staff and the restaurant on the top had excellent food! Great location to shopping and walking around town.

Overall, we would highly recommend this hotel. It is perfectly located in the heart of the bustling Beyoğlu district/neighborhood, close to the Galata tower, and also still centrally located for you to maneuver to other neighborhoods, ferry points, and sites.
When you step into the hotel, it feels like a small oasis. The service is personable and helpful, while the rooms/space are clean and enjoyable.
Would definitely recommend.
