We loved this hotel and will definitely be back. The location is great, with metro and funicular nearby but still quiet. It also has plenty of places to eat and drink within walking distance, and the rooftop bar and restaurant is excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and everything works as expected. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great.

Good value but our room window just looked out at a black gate so could’ve been dangerous if there was a fire. Hotel restaurant prices were a bit expensive and the laundry service was very expensive. The staff although were very friendly and helpful and the room was nice for the price we payed. The location was phenomenal.

Terrific breakfast (very much in line with the other reviews), certainly exceeded expectations. Staff was very nice and accommodating. We stayed in the family room which was comfortable with 2 separate rooms and 2 separate bathrooms and comfortable beds. My chief complaint is the noise coming from the outside, cabs and cars beeping until 3 am each morning and music playing so we barely got any sleep. The location is great, very central but the constant noise from the outside was a bit too much for us (no fault of the hotel, just a lot of traffic and other things going on nearby). If you are looking for a quiet place, suggest to look at other hotels.

Million dollar rooftop view from the daily breakfast location. Incredibly helpful front desk staff - from sightseeing recommendations to a last minute early AM breakfast accommodation. Lovely restaurant staff. Rooms small but extremely clean and well decorated. Recommend a rooftop dinner. Galata area is the best location to explore Istanbul (Istiklal Street up behind the hotel is 2.5 km of endless interest, easy access to Blue Mosque etc. via walk or public transit).

I stayed at Galata Times for 3 nights with my husband and we had a terrific stay! The room is not so spacious; but its’s clean and equipped with useful amenities. The hotel is one street next to Galata Tower, and situated next to a sunset watching spot. Although it has crowd coming by outside, the room is well soundproofed with blackout curtains. So we had great sleep. Breakfast is delicious and well-prepared. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
