The Galataport Hotel offers a prime location in Istanbul, with easy access to popular attractions such as the Galata Tower, the Galata Bridge, and Istiklal Street. The hotel is also within walking distance of the Old Town and can be reached by foot or metro. For those who enjoy a lively evening, there is a convenient shop nearby where you can find cigarettes, beers, and other spirits to enjoy while sitting on the steps below the Galata Tower. The hotel is well-furnished and comfortable, with modern and clean amenities including comfortable beds and a clean bathroom.
When staying at the Galataport Hotel, we felt free to seek assistance from the friendly and helpful staff, and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them.

The location of the hotel was excellent. It was within walking distance to popular attractions such as Galata Tower and Istiklal Street. This made it convenient for exploring the city without the need for public transportation. Additionally, the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. They provided useful information and recommendations about the area, which was much appreciated.
There were a few negative aspects to my stay. there was road construction happening in front of the hotel, which made it difficult for taxis to drop off guests directly.

This hotel is a hidden gem, tucked away in a small side street just next to Galata Tower. The rooms offer a verry nice view of the city, and the breakfast served on the panoramic terrace is simply spectacular. The staff is super friendly and attentive, making sure all your needs are met. The location is convenient, with Şişhane Metro Station just a 5-minute walk away.
All in all, everything was ok, no complaints.
