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!

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

Pişmanlık..
Konum olarak kötü. Valiz ile gelecekseniz yokuş bir konumda olduğu için zorlanacaksınız. 3. sınıf bir hotel. Personel çok asık suratlı. Resepsiyonda duran arkadaş sanki onun işletmesi gibi davranıyor. Kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum. Paranızı çöpe atmayın.

Nette Mitarbeiter,Saubere Zimmer,hellhörige Zimmer
Hotel ist sehr Zentral...Man kann sehr leicht überall hin. Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich und nett. Ich hatte ein Zimmer was nach hinten gezeigt hat...Dadurch war es leise und man konnte nachts gut schlafen. Jedoch ist das Zimmer sehr hellhörig gewesen und man bekommt ALLES mit was draußen vor der Tür bzw in den Nachbarzimmer stattfindet. Allgemein Zustand der Zimmer war super. Das Zimmer war gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Die Reinung fand jeden Tag stand und man hat auch jeden Tag frische Handtücher bekommen. Alles im einen ein gutes Hotel.
