Friendly receptionists, clean room, nice breakfast buffet, convenient to shopping and restaurants. The room was small, the coffee maker tray was set on the night stand which made it useless.

VIMAL

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Stayed on 3rd floor for 2 nights. Hotel is extremely noisy. Bad acoustics, noise from communal areas is heard in the room. The room doors slam close, this is incredibly annoying. You can hear every door slam. Surely there is a way to slow down the latching. There is virtually no noise insulation between rooms, I could clearly hear conversation, coughing, any noise, particularly shouting. Not enjoyable. The bedding is old, worn, and my room pillow case and duvet cover did not look fresh, in fact,the next day I could smell a stale odour from the duvet cover. It did not look or feel clean. I was checking out next day as it was short stop during business trip. The location is convenient to restaurants. I would not stay here again.

Room is very small no place to hang clothes . No microwave . No table and chairs to eat . Security at hotel is good. Very hopeful staff. I arrive 2 a.m in the morning front desk staff agree to buy food for me and my wife . So nice. Major problem messaging with hotel . They do not understand english very well. They assume what I request wrong without confirming my request. Also they agree to help me with travel inside turkey. . When I ask a question about visiting certain city. They refer me to find informations on the internet.

Dear Alex, Thank you very much for your kind comments about our hotel and staff . Galata’s Hotel is an official city center 4 star hotel, not an apart hotel so we do not have a kitchen nor a microwave in our rooms, all of our room facilities and room sizes are written very clearly on our web page and also on Expedia. Our sales team and front office team are fluent in English , we tried to find an email about your request but there is none. Our front office team is very helpful about everything as you know, but when it comes to arranging to travel to another city, it is something you need to do individually, they can only give you advices and suggestions.
