Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Simple, chic boutique hotel in a convenient area easily walkable to food and shopping. Friendly, professional host. The room was simple and a little on the older side but had a/c, coffee/water, was clean, and faced onto a quiet lot. Overall would go again. Be warned that the entrance is on a steep hill, for those who might need help walking.
What I didn’t like was it was on a hill. Very hard to walk up and down with knee issues. Other than that it was great. Great staff that were helpful with luggage.
Room was smaller than anticipated, with very small bathroom
Staff were great though, always helpful and friendly
Hotel is perfect for Galata Tower and Taksim Square but beware that airport transportation struggle to find it due to one way system on narrow approach roads
I recently stayed at the Galata Royal Hotel in Istanbul, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The hotel’s location is unbeatable—everything is within walking distance, from transportation options to a wide array of restaurants, shops, and local markets. You’re just a short stroll away from the vibrant Taksim Square and some of Istanbul’s most famous historical sites, making it perfect for exploring the city.
The hotel itself is fantastic—comfortable, clean, and modern, with excellent amenities. But what truly made my stay exceptional was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel at home, and I want to especially mention Baris. He treated me like family, always ensuring that I had everything I needed and offering helpful recommendations for things to see and do around the city. His kindness and generosity were beyond what I expected, and it truly made my time in Istanbul unforgettable.
If you’re looking for a hotel that combines a great location, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Galata Royal Hotel is the place to stay. Highly recommended!
The guy who checked us in was v rude he didn’t had A/C controller next to his chair and didn’t even bother to turn it on after 1 hour of trying my self i went down to ask him he said i just turned it on higher room smell v bad of cleaning chemicals was v hard to breath . Yes it is close to galata tower but i would definitely not recommend to stay there if you going with kids .
