Royal Galata Hotel

I had a very wonderful stay in the hotel. The location is superb around 20mins of walking from taksim square, 15mins from galata port and 10mins from galata bridge.The staff were all very friendly and helpful. There are lots of cafe options that you can go for chill coffee break or nice breakfast (cost for buffet set around TL300).Or you can enjoy coffee and people watching at the hotel cafe. I would definately stay here again! To access to the hotel from Sabiha, you can either take Havaist bus drop off at Taksim Square (TL102.50) and continue to walk downhill for 20mins or you can take metro and stop at Sishane station. Other alternative is take Havaist bus drop off at Karakoy ferry terminal (TL77.00) and proceed with ferry to Kadikoy (TL39.90) estimated 30mins and continue walking for 10mins. Both Havaist option will take about 1hr depending on traffic.

Tolle Lage.. Zimmer etwas hellhörig, aber sonst alles tipptopp! Vielen Dank an Can, der uns in allen Belangen immer sehr behilflich war und stets ein Lächeln im Gesicht hatte;)

I recently stayed at the Galata Royal Hotel in Istanbul, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The hotel’s location is unbeatable—everything is within walking distance, from transportation options to a wide array of restaurants, shops, and local markets. You’re just a short stroll away from the vibrant Taksim Square and some of Istanbul’s most famous historical sites, making it perfect for exploring the city. The hotel itself is fantastic—comfortable, clean, and modern, with excellent amenities. But what truly made my stay exceptional was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel at home, and I want to especially mention Baris. He treated me like family, always ensuring that I had everything I needed and offering helpful recommendations for things to see and do around the city. His kindness and generosity were beyond what I expected, and it truly made my time in Istanbul unforgettable. If you’re looking for a hotel that combines a great location, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Galata Royal Hotel is the place to stay. Highly recommended!

Pişmanlık.. Konum olarak kötü. Valiz ile gelecekseniz yokuş bir konumda olduğu için zorlanacaksınız. 3. sınıf bir hotel. Personel çok asık suratlı. Resepsiyonda duran arkadaş sanki onun işletmesi gibi davranıyor. Kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum. Paranızı çöpe atmayın.

Nette Mitarbeiter,Saubere Zimmer,hellhörige Zimmer Hotel ist sehr Zentral...Man kann sehr leicht überall hin. Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich und nett. Ich hatte ein Zimmer was nach hinten gezeigt hat...Dadurch war es leise und man konnte nachts gut schlafen. Jedoch ist das Zimmer sehr hellhörig gewesen und man bekommt ALLES mit was draußen vor der Tür bzw in den Nachbarzimmer stattfindet. Allgemein Zustand der Zimmer war super. Das Zimmer war gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Die Reinung fand jeden Tag stand und man hat auch jeden Tag frische Handtücher bekommen. Alles im einen ein gutes Hotel.

New Year Break Room was smaller than anticipated, with very small bathroom Staff were great though, always helpful and friendly Hotel is perfect for Galata Tower and Taksim Square but beware that airport transportation struggle to find it due to one way system on narrow approach roads
