Stayed here in 2022 and came back because it was located in a great area (a walk away from Galata Tower and Istiklal Caddesi). The staff are lovely and very accommodating and overall a great place to base yourself if you want to explore Istanbul! the galata tower view from the rooms is a plus!

The hotel is situated in a very good location with good transport. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant has an amazing view with nice small selection for breakfast. The only thing is the rooms could be bigger with better sound proof and the restaurant didn’t have great variety for lunch/dinner.

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.

The property is very ideally located if you like to spend more time in the Galata side. Saltbae Burger is close too! Rishit and everyone else on the front desk was great. Breakfast is super tasty! Only thing I would say is it would be great if the rooms are a little bigger but not much can be done about that.

Stayed at Galata Times Hotel on Sept 28- Oct. 1. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Thank you, Rahmi & Reshit for making us feel welcomed during our stay in Istanbul, Turkey. Also, the rooftop 106, server are very patient with us, they waited until we finished eating. Best believe, this hotel gives excellent service.

This boutique hotel was a real gem. Modern, clean, excellent location, right next to metro, and just a few minutes walk to Galata Tower. Breakfast was excellent as well, and the view from the breakfast area was beautiful.
