Hotel is very average, not 5 star, nothing special. Service needs to improve, no one to help with getting bags down stairs at departure. Very limited choice of food, nowhere to get a lighter meal. Nice views from bar and good location but not worth the 5 star prices

I'm eager to return to The Galata Istanbul Hotel MGallery for another wonderful experience. The hotel's prime and tranquil location, combined with its friendly staff, made my experience truly enjoyable. The restaurant not only offered tasty food but also provided a breathtaking view. The highlight of my stay was the Historical Turkish Bath & SPA ‘Çeşme Hamamı, adding a perfect touch to my relaxation. Highly recommended!

Hotel catered to a certain clientele, which wasn’t me but I only stayed one night so everything was fine. Helpful staff, great location close to public transportation and all the happenings around Galata Tower and The Bosporus. Do note the restaurant changes into a club on Friday night, which was right above my room.

From the moment we arrived until the time we checked-out, we were treated like royalty. I say that literally. The staff were amazing. If I had to list the names of those that went above and beyond, I would simply write "All". We stayed for 9 days 8 nights. The room was spotless and perfect. Everything we needed was there. (On my wife's birthday, the third day of the trip, we came back to our room and an amazing, and delicious, chocolate cake with Happy Birthday written on it with plates and a whole spread, was left in the room. I never told them it was her birthday) The view from our room plus the view from the restaurant were stunning. An amazing lounge area for drinks in the lobby. Location could not have been better. We walked everywhere. Galata Tower is a brief, steep walk from the front doors as well as the Galata Bridge If you are still scrolling through hotels and are reading this review, I urge you to book your stay here. You will be extremely satisfied. We will definitely be staying at this hotel again and again. 5 Stars+ Thank you.

Overall stay was okay. Property is in a great location in gálata and nearby the tram / lots of rooftops / going out areas. Room itself was really nice and clean. Overall service was fine as they were trying their best. Would rate this hotel a zero for VIP access benefits. I had to repeatedly ask for the spa discount and welcome drinks as they were not offered at checkout. I made a spa reservation that they messed up and then they didn’t have anywhere on file that I was an Expedia member so it was a huge hassle to get the discount. Made for a disjointed stay — disappointing as I spent 6 nights there.

Needs tweaking but good

It was a good hotel, and a good stay, but needs to improve a few things. Breakfast was wonderful and the best part of the stay, shower great, bed very good. Just missed a little bit of a local touch of a baklava at brrakfast. Check in felt like a series of upselling efforts for a better room, restaurant, spa, too much. The room has a few annoying flaws that should be fixed such as controlling the light is really difficult. The DND light on the door didn’t work, could not switch off / lower the sound on the TV and the phone does not have a button for front desk so getting in touch with them was challenging. Basics. Also, there was no wine opener in the bar so why sell bottles with a cork, maybe switch to a screw top - and they definitely could cut back on plastic in the room. Last airconditioning was either super strong cold or hot so we had to tweak it back-and-forth. Having said all of that the hotel has a beautiful design, friendly staff, well located and is clean and the deluxe room was a good size. For what they charge I would just expect a little better.

This was my second stay at this hotel, and there are definitely things I like about it. The location is great, the staff are kind and helpful, and overall it’s a comfortable place to stay. We booked a Superior Golden Horn View Room because one of the photos showed a corner panoramic view of the Golden Horn. However, when we arrived, I realized the view from our room was not what I expected. The staff explained that a different photo actually shows this room, and the one I was hoping for was a Junior Suite—but there was no way for me to know that from the listing. I was willing to pay extra to move to the Junior Suite, but unfortunately it wasn’t available. The hotel apologized and offered us a different room, which we accepted, though I was still a little disappointed. It’s now been a month since my stay, and I see that the same misleading photo is still shown under the wrong room category. Just a note for travelers: if you are booking the Superior Golden Horn View Room, be aware that photo #9 does not represent this room.

Mediocre stay. Some bright sides, some downsides. Some staff was kind, others were rude. Overall I was not impressed and wouldn’t stay again. I didn’t feel comfortable in the majority of my stay to be quite honest.

The hotel is quite nice. However, the area around it seems abandoned. The building right in front of the hotel seems like a ghost town. When I arrived at the hotel, I did not receive any welcoming gifts or showcases of how to get around the city. I had to ask for all this. My friend who was staying in Istanbul at the same time at his hotel received thousands of gifts and treats every time he entered the lobby. They also gave him a free IST card to get around the city. They walked him around the area to help understand how the city works. His hotel was 4 stars and this one is 5 and didn't do bare minimum except charge 6 dollars for a box of gum. I wouldn’t recommend staying here after hearing all the other great hotels out there. My friend stayed at the Golden Horn Bosporus hotel.
