Really disappointed
Really disappointed. We arrived at night to be shown to our room, we only released in the morning it had no outside windows!! So was dark and had no air.
Imagine putting guests that are staying for 3 nights in a room like that. I was really excited about the stay, was really disappointed. Front desk staff were cold, it wasn’t a nice atmosphere.
I expected more from this brand.

As a family of 10 we thoroughly enjoy our stay at the Galata Hotel at the end of October 2024. We were there 3 nights and 4 days. Hotel is pleasant, the rooms were large and very comfortable. The hotel accommodated us by having all our rooms next to each other. The staff and service was impeccable, very warm, welcoming and attentive. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone for making our holiday special. The location is great and near shops, cafes and restaurants. Advisable to be fit as there are some steps and some steep roads not lasting more than a few minutes before you enter the main tourist area.

We have enjoyed a lot our staying at The Galata Istanbul MGallery hotel. Excellent location and walking distance to the Galata Tower. Very friendly and professional staff, clean room . From the 3rd floor restaurant you could have an amazing view of the Mosque and Bosporus. Really appreciated all the arrangements and help received from the hotel. A must recommend place to stay.

Solid hotel. Great location - right in the middle of it all. Excellent facilities. Gym is a bit basic but better than nothing. Rooms are great. Reception staff are good when you engage with them, but not exactly proactively so. Told front desk about a blocked shower drain, twice, but wasn't fixed. Other than that, a great stay.

This was an excellent choice with very friendly and helpful staff - and well positioned for walking to the old town. The only downside was that we have not booked breakfast before. It was good but expensive- we should have booked it in advance.
