Great small boutique hotel located in Galatar historic district just a few steps from Sishane metro stop. Excellent metro access from the IST airport as well as to Grand Bazar, Sultanahmet historical district via tram. Also enjoyed the Istanbul sunset views, excellent breakfast from the roof top bar. You can find all you want to do in Galatar district including shopping, restaurants/outdoor bars, art gallery. Wonderful staff and charming hotel cat too!

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!

I stayed at the Galata Times Hotel during my trip to Istanbul and had a truly great experience. From the moment I checked in, Rahim at the front desk was super welcoming and kind. He really went out of his way to help me, arranging my tours and transportation so I didn’t have to worry about anything. The location couldn’t be better, Galata Tower is just a couple of minutes away on foot, and Istiklal Street is also close by, which made it easy to explore the city. The hotel itself was very clean and comfortable, with a nice vibe. All the staff I met were friendly and helpful. Overall, this was one of the best hotel stays I’ve had. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul. Huge thanks to Rahim for making my stay extra enjoyable.

We had an amazing time in Istanbul and the hotel was wonderful. From the moment we checked in, Rahim and the team took excellent care of us, making sure that our questions were answered and that our stay was nothing less than perfect. In addition, the breakfast and the view of the Galata Tower each morning was breathtaking. Our breakfast host, Simin, always greeted us with a smile and she truly brightened our mornings. Çok teşekkür ederim!! We will definitely come back in the future. Highly recommend! - Best, Maria and Farideh

The staff were amazing at the hotel. It is a smaller boutique hotel and rooms are on the smaller side but the location and staff make up for it. Breakfast could be improved. Options were a bit limited and very limited meat options (I only saw deli meat). The pancakes were very cold and hard. Need a variety and change of menu daily.

The best thing about the hotel was the location as the metro entrance is just in front of the hotel and the extremely helpful staff. Rahmi was a big help for us. He showed us the best locations to eat and even ordered food for us. We always had a nice and fun talk with him whenever we met him. The manager also helped a lot when I ordered flowers for my better part. All in all, the staff enhanced our istanbul experience and we will come again. 😁

El personal muy amable, nos permitieron dejar nuestro equipaje unas horas despues del check out, tiene una vista hermosa tanto del Bosforo como de la torre Galata, la zona esta llena de tiendas y restaurantes, sales del hotel y podras observar la entrada al metro. Las habitaciones no son muy grandes, pero muy confortables y las instalaciones estan muy bien. Sin duda si regresaria. Saludos

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel — everything was perfect! The service was excellent, the room was spotless and very comfortable, and the location couldn’t be better. It’s right in the center, surrounded by great restaurants and cafes, and just a short walk from the Galata Tower — such an amazing area to explore! The front desk staff were fantastic — super friendly and helpful. They even helped me arrange my shuttle to the airport and were always very attentive. I totally recommend this hotel 100%! I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip to Istanbul.
