Galata Calm Tale Hotel

Nice hotel, good location if you want to visit Araketler, Besiktasa and Osmanbey area.

We had a great experience at this newly opened and renovated hotel! The bed was incredibly comfortable and large, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The air conditioning worked well, which was important during the warm days. The location is quiet, with no noise disturbances, and it’s super central for exploring this part of Istanbul. Restaurants and shops are just a 5-minute walk away, and there’s a nearby metro station. Also, cat lovers will enjoy seeing many cats around the area and even in front of the hotel! On the downside, the hotel doesn't have an elevator, and the stairs are quite narrow. While we only had hand luggage, this could be a challenge for anyone with bigger bags. The reception isn’t always staffed, which might sometimes cause problems for guests. Lastly, the balcony could be better equipped, as it lacked a table and chairs for relaxing.
