Excellent location and hotel.
Excellent location, if you have a car hired there’s literally a car park across the road. The view from the top floor restaurant is outstanding. We had two family connected rooms, very good overall.

I highly recommend Galata Times Hotel. From the moment I booked my room, I received exceptional service. Hotel staff contacted me if I needed airport transfer, which they conveniently arranged. All the staff are helpful and friendly. Special mention to Simin, Rashit, and Osman who went out of their way to make us welcome, comfortable, and always attended to our needs. Simin arranged for our Turkish bath reservation while I was in US through whatsapp. Rashit guided us in navigating the tram system and even gave us a tram card to top off.,Osman helped us with our luggages and escorted us out to our waiting van at 3am. Not to mention the rooms are clean, bed comfortable, toiletries always fully stocked, and breakfast at the rooftop cafe superb with incredible views. Istanbul is a beautiful city and everyone should visit it and stay at Galata Times. Thank you for an enjoyable stay!

Why are there condoms in the fridge?
It is a typical Istanbul small room hotel, if you have been to Istanbul before it is pretty much as expected. Room was clean and no problems, breakfast was standard Turkish breakfast. 2 issues I had (minor) were breakfast was from 8AM, this is too late for me as I had to be somewhere for 08:30 start for work so I could not have breakfast on 2 days. Also why were there 2 condoms in the fridge? Really tacky to see that and no necessary at all.

The staff was what set this hotel apart. They had great tips on what to explore in the city, and even gave us a city commuter pass to use for the street car that had pre-loaded money on it. On our last day, we had to leave for the airport the free hotel breakfast opened, and the front desk went above and beyond to get us breakfast early and coffee to go. Only downside is that the rooms are fairly small, but the hotel made up for it in service.

Clean and centrally located. Steps to the metro. Only criticism is they provided a coffee machine but not the coffee pods. What’s the point if you don’t have pods to use it. We had to call them every night to make sure we have coffee pods for the morning. They limit 2 pods only.

Staff are very helpful and lovely people. If we needed advice on where to go they were always available. The property was clean and very comfortable. Only downside was my room was facing the main road where people sit to watch sunset and musicians play, it was pretty noisy and went on till 2am . Other then that it was a great experience and would stay there again. Located near metro which was convenient and Galata tower where there wete loads of shops cafes and restaurants
