Guest Reviews
- India (3/5): This hotel is in a very loud location. - The location was great - walkable into Taksim for shopping and across the bridge for the mosques. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel had no sound proofing so definitely don’t stay here if you want to get a good night’s sleep. The bed wasn’t comfortable, it was very hard. The shower was a bit rubbish - low water pressure and couldn’t get the temperature right, was either boiling hot or cold.
- Arif (10/5): - Everything and everyone of the staff is very friendly and go out of their way to make Everything possible for you,,safeek was stand out as well as other staff but I dont remember their names.nice small boutique hotel with very good breakfast place nearby. There was nothing i think of it was 10/10
- leyla (10/5): El corazón de Estambul - Me encantó y el lugar es ideal Absolutamente me gustó todo
- Tamara (10/5): - Отель Des Arts Galata — идеальная база для знакомства с европейской частью Стамбула. До Галатской башни буквально 2 минуты пешком, рядом классные кафе, магазины, и при этом в номерах довольно тихо (окна моего номера выходили на Галату, что захватывало дух от красоты и величия башни😍)Номера разных размеров в ретро стиле, что однозначно отражает всю уникальность этого места. Отдельно хочу поблагодарить менеджера Şefik. Это человек который может найти общий язык с любым гостем. Вежливый, ненавязчивый, реально заботится о гостях. В этом можно убедиться только приехав сюда и думаю вы сразу поймете, о чем я говорю, и однозначно останетесь довольны. Могу с уверенностью сказать, что самое ценное в этой гостинице не ее шикарная локация, а люди которые там работают. Абсолютно весь коллектив максимально вовлечен в процесс создания уюта для своих гостей🌸 Спасибо менеджеру Şefik и его коллегам за столь радушный прием, я обязательно вернусь в этот отель и буду его рекомендовать. Все понравилось👍🏻
- Tarni (10/5): -
- Kristina (10/5): I stayed for 2 nights. Location is very central and it is crowded during the day and evening. Workers were super nice an - Perfect location, breakfast and hospitality of workers Matress
- Ana (9/5): - Very cute hotel, homey, the attention to detail is amazing! You can find old apliances all over the room. The bed has thick, comfortable matress, and soft pillows. Bathroom is spacious, clean. It is near Galata Tower, so all the atractions and shops are in the walking distance! I recommend it!
- Voichita (10/5): -
- Cristian (8/5): Buen hotel si viajas ligero - La ubicación, a 20 pasos de la torre galata y muy tranquilo y bonito alrededor El espacio de la habitación es muy pequeño, tuvimos dificultad para abrir las maletas, además no había TV
- Heather (1/5): -
- Roy (10/5): It was a great place to start our trip in Istanbul - Location is great. Staff were friendly and helpful. No complaints
- Rozzo (8/5): - Il personale è molto gentile e accogliente. La colazione è buona e viene servita in un bel locale a pochi passi dalla struttura. La camera era pulita e luminosa. Il bagno è piccolo ma pulito e con tutto il necessario. La struttura è a pochi metri dalla torre di Galata, in pieno centro. Fate attenzione, essendo situato su una strada molto turistica la struttura non è silenziosa.
- Samuel (10/5): -
- Rakhmetova (10/5): Рекомендую всем, все рядом, вид шикарный - Все, локация и вид
- Giorgia (8/5): Piccolo hotel senza troppe pretese ma posizione SUPER in una zona molto carina soprattutto di sera!! - Sono stata in vacanza a Istanbul dal 22 al 26 aprile, mi sono trovata molto bene in questo hotel, è piccolino ma la posizione è molto strategica perchè si trova proprio sotto la torre di Galata dove ci sono tanti locali e per muoversi si può anche fare tutto il ponte a piedi e scendere fino al porto nella zona di Eminonu oppure prendere ad esempio il tram all'inizio del ponte. Ci tornerei perchè è un quartiere bello, vivace e accogliente...anche se, essendo appunto una zona affollatissima, ovviamente è anche parecchio rumorosa. L'hotel è piccolino ma se non si hanno troppe pretese è perfetto!!! La colazione: noi avevamo dei tour organizzati la mattina presto per cui non abbiamo potuto usufruire del servizio perchè ti il ristorante apriva alle 8: secondo me dovrebbero invece iniziare prima, magari già alle 7 del mattino...
- Sergey (10/5): - Отличное расположение отеля,в 50 м от башни. Очень услужливый и доброжелательный персонал. На ресепшене всегда в наличии вкусный кофе и вода. Завтрак очень хороший в соседнем кафе.
- Xhevdet (10/5): -
- Ender (6/5): - L'accueil du personnel, l'emplacement près de la tour de Galata. L'hôtel donne sur une rue très bruyante jusque tard dans la nuit. Les fenêtres ne permettent pas du tout d'atténuer le bruit. On a l'impression de dormir dans la rue au milieu du bruit. Équipements assez vétustes
- Manuela (10/5): Das Hotel ist an top Lage und sehr familiär, Zimmer tadellos und sauber. Wir kommen gerne wieder. - Das Hotel ist sehr familiär und das Personal sehr freundlich. Wir wurden von Herrn Sefik überaus zuvorkommend und freundlich empfangen. Das Zimmer war hübsch eingerichtet und sauber. Die Lage ist ideal und in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Galata Turm, wo es viele Restaurants und Bars hat. Perfekt um das Viertel und die Stadt zu erkunden.
- Ζάννες (9/5): -
- Pietro salvatore (10/5): Ottima scelta: posizione, staff e hotel top! - Soggiorno davvero fantastico! Hotel molto carino, curato e in una posizione semplicemente perfetta per muoversi con facilità. La zona piena di locali molto carini. La colazione top, servita in un ristorante proprio sotto la torre di Galata. Il vero valore aggiunto è il personale: sempre accogliente, disponibile e cordiale, ci hanno fatto sentire come a casa. Struttura pulita e piacevole sotto ogni aspetto. Consigliatissimo! Unico piccolissimo neo, migliorabile senza difficoltà: una maggiore attenzione alla pulizia del bagno renderebbe l’esperienza davvero impeccabile.
- Nadezhda (10/5): Очень дружелюбный персонал. Завтраки по талончикам в кафе за углом. Милый маленький отельчик для любителей оказаться в ц - Локация. 100м от башни. Очень милый персонал Нас не напрягало, но: шумоизоляция окон самая обычная. Засыпали под зажигательные песни кафешек района.
- Birgit (8/5): - Frühstücken kann man 100m entfernt direkt in einem Restaurant mit Blick auf den Galata-Turm. Zur Auswahl stehen ca 15 Gerichte - sehr lecker! Hotel liegt super zentral am Galataturm. Personal ist sehr bemüht und hilfsbereit. Sehr quirliges Viertel - deshalb auch viel Leben und Lärm. Aber die Fenster des Hotels isolieren sehr gut. Haben das Taxi vom Flughaben zum Hotel über das Hotel gebucht - hat sehr gut funktioniert. Betten könnten breiter sein - 1,80 wäre super ;-))
- Johanna (10/5): Perfect Location - The location was a dream! It was right near everything in the Galata area. Sefik was also so kind and hospitable. He always greeted me with a smile and was very personable.
- Achim (10/5): Gute Unterkunft mitten im Galata-Zentrum - Das Hotel liegt wirklich mitten im Gastronomiezentrum am Galata-Turm. Rundherum gibt es viele Lokale und Geschäfte. Wer hier wohnt, muss mit etwas Straßenlärm rechnen. Die Ausstattung des Zimmers ist umfänglich mit einem Vintage-Touch, das Bad ist modern. Der Service ist freundlich, die Rezeption ist 24/7 besetzt, es gibt einen kleinen Loungebereich mit vielfältigen Kaffee- und Teeangeboten. Das Frühstück wird in einem Lokal direkt am Galata-Turm serviert. Es gibt ein Vouchersystem und eine gute Auswahl in dem Lokal. man sitzt dort ausgesprochen gut, der Service ist freundlich und schnell. Die Abreise, wären gerne länger geblieben.
- Harshad (10/5): Very convenient location for stay with good choice for eating and transport. - Breakfast was good. Location is excellent for sight seeing with very good transport links and night life with good food choices. Can't find a fault.
- Meixuan (10/5): -
- Martina (1/5): Unacceptable conditions, it was impossible to get proper rest - We could not rest properly during our stay. One room was extremely noisy, making sleep impossible. The other was uncomfortably hot with no temperature control. Overall, both rooms lacked basic comfort and sound insulation. We left earlier than planned as the hotel was not suitable for a restful stay. It is unacceptable that the room I was given is even offered to guests, as it is simply impossible to sleep there.
- Guido (9/5): - Sehr gute Lage - Preis/Leistung hervorragend - Personal sehr zuvorkommend - Zimmer 4 in der ersten Etage sauber und anprechend eingerichtet - Umgebung sehr lebendig - abends hört man das Leben in der Stadt - Zimmer 10 in der 3. Etage ist deutlich leiser, aber etwas kleiner und mit Minibalkon - Kaffeespezialitäten, Wasser und Tee sind 24 Stunden verfügbar
- Anna (9/5): - Отличное расположение. Приятный персонал. Большей номер. На 3 дня отлично! Не работал фен, не было горячей воды вечером, шумно, если в спальне открыть окно.
- Kravchenko (10/5): - Останавливались с сыном, очень комфортно. Администратор Sefik был очень вежливый
- Kulczycki (10/5): Amazing stay at this hotel. The gentleman at the front desk was incredibly helpful and welcoming. -
- Martina (9/5): Toll gelegenes Hotel mit sehr schönen Zimmern. - Sehr nettes hilfsbereites Personal, sehr hübsche, saubere Zimmer. Tolles Frühstück im nahe gelegenen Restaurant ! Fantastische Lage Einziges Manko Zimmer sind recht hellhörig, auch von der Straße her.
- Nicola (10/5): - Personale
- Ivo (7/5): After rather short period of adjustment I call my stay there as pleasant - Excellent location and very helpful staff Some of room furniture and equipment has to be fixed or replaced
- Stoyan (10/5): -
- Nino (10/5): I would go back again for sure! - The location is unbeatable! In the heart of everything! I personally love to chill at coffee shops and the area has tones around the hotel ! Plus it’s safe to walk late at night . The best thing in the Room was the bathrobe! Oh My God! It’s the best I have ever worn! Oversized! The way I love it , best cotton quality! Very heavy and substantial!!! I wonder where do they get it ! I need to take one home ! Also the staff at the reception are very helpful! SEFIK is multilingual! He spoke my language ( Arabic ) which made the connection fast ! He’s Multi talented and very informative! Helped me with all my inquiries. The bed is short kinda of , my feet were touching the rail at the end . For tall guys this bed will be an issue.
- Kleanthi (10/5): Αξέχαστη - Η τοποθεσία ήταν τοπ! Το δωμάτιο καθαρό και ευρύχωρο. Ήμασταν μέσα στο κέντρο. Υπήρχε χώρος όπου μπορούσες να απολαύσεις δωρεάν καφεδάκι της επιλογής σου όλη την μέρα!! Ο Sefik που μας υποδέχτηκε την μέρα που φτάσαμε φρόντιζε να μας κάνει την διαμονή μας αξέχαστη. Ηταν έξι οπότε τον χρειαζόμασταν!! Η μεγάλη έκπληξη ήταν ότι την Κυριακή 08/03 το πρωί μας υποδέχτηκαν με ξεχωριστό δώρο για κάθε μια από εμάς με προϊόντα περιποίησης για την ημέρα της γυναίκας!! Σίγουρα αν μας φέρει το μέλλον στην Κωνσταντινούπολη θα είναι το ξενοδοχείο που θα προτιμήσουμε και το ξενοδοχείο που θα προτιμούμε σε όσους θέλουν να πάνε!
- Helen (9/5): Great place to stay to explore the city - Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Leaky shower.
- LIU (9/5): -
- Pupok (10/5): Очень понравилось. - Соответствие фото и реальности 100%. Приветливый персонал. Все говорят по английски, так же есть русскоговорящий персонал, что очень удобно. Вкусный завтрак. Местоположение великолепное прям из балкона видна Галатская башня. Лифт - очень удобно. Свежий ремонт. Вечером вода в номере была еле теплая, но утром была уже горячая.
- Kanellia (10/5): perfect - the location was ideal, all of the staff and especially Sefik were very friendly and helpful and kind, the room itself was absolutely wonderful and the breakfast at the nearby restaurant was delicious! i will definitely recommend and i hope to be back! i don’t think there was anything wrong, although the hotel is in a very busy street so it’s not that quiet at night but i didn’t mind it at all
- Ahmad (10/5): - I would like to sincerely thank Sefik for the wonderful hospitality at Hotel Des Arts Galata. His professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made our stay truly comfortable and enjoyable. The warm welcome and excellent service are highly appreciated. I highly recommend this hotel, especially thanks to Sefik’s outstanding support. أودّ أن أتقدّم بجزيل الشكر لشفيق على حسن الضيافة الرائعة في فندق ديزار غالاتا. لقد جعلت مهنيته ولطفه واهتمامه بأدق التفاصيل إقامتنا مريحة وممتعة للغاية. نُقدّر عالياً الترحيب الحار والخدمة الممتازة. أوصي بشدة بهذا الفندق، وخاصةً بفضل دعم شفيق المتميز.
- Philippe (10/5): - Tres bon emplacement, grande chambre. Petite salle de bain, pas trop de place pour les affaires de toilette
- Kaya (10/5): Helemaal top - Echt een top locatie. Aan de voet van Galatatoren en overal dichtbij. Personeel is buiten alles het beste. Wat een toppers daar 👌🏻
- Molla Hasan (10/5): -
- Vladimir (2/5): Один из худших отелей в истории моих путешествий - У этого отеля только одно положительное качество - относительно неплохое расположение. Да и то, если вам нравится жить в самом центре движения туристического потока. Всё-таки в Стамбуле сейчас есть гораздо более интересные локации для размещения. А эта локация - рядом с Галатской башней - не отличается ни чистотой, ни приятной глазу архитектурой (куча заброшки вокруг), ни обилием достойных мест для поесть. Но, действительно, рядом башня, метро, Истикляль и т.п. Очень пожалели, выбрав этот отель. Кроме местоположения, других позитивных качеств у этого отеля не нашли. Номер (тот, который люкс) - обман. На странице отеля указано, что площадь номера - 40 кв. м. На самом деле - вряд ли больше 20 кв. м. Скорее меньше. Номер - прокуренный, стоял устойчивый запах въевшегося табачного дыма. Номер выглядел не как номер бутик-отеля, а как ночлежка с мебелью с помойки. Включая окрашенную в какую-то золотистую краску кровать. Постановочные фото номера не только этого не передают, но и наоборот - маскируют это обстоятельство. Всё весьма пошарпанное, неаккуратное, непродуманное. Например, в туалетной комнате даже некуда разместить зубную щётку и другие принадлежности личной гигиены. Грязно, неопрятно, обстановка требует ремонта. Даже вспоминать не хочется. Очень удивлён восторженным отзывам некоторых других постояльцев. Особенно - учитывая немалую цену на этот отель на новогодние каникулы. Завтрак тоже требует упоминания. Он действительно в отдельно стоящем ресторане. В ресторане всегда много людей, т.к. он находится прямо на площади с Галатской башне. Вряд ли это связано с качеством самого ресторана, скорее - с его расположением. В ресторане тебе дают меню завтра. Можешь выбрать одно блюдо. Весьма скромное по набору составляющих. Например, омлет. Если захочешь к омлету сосиску или овощи, или сыр, или ещё что-то - пожалуйста, но за деньги из основного меню. Можно конечно поесть и голый омлет (натурально будет на тарелке лежать один небольшой омлет и всё), но странно такой завтрак называть "прекрасным и сытным". Разнообразием блюд завтрак тоже не блещет - всё меню с картинками блюд умещается на одной стороне листа А4. Люди на ресепшн - довольно равнодушные, если вопрос не касается дополнительных платных услуг вроде такси. Это, понятно, моя ошибка выбора. Можно было бы и чуть более внимательно изучить детали, которые не бросаются в глаза сходу. Но это точно один из худших отелей, в которых бывал.
- Kalaijian (8/5): -
- Sofia (10/5): İt was amazing and especially with the support of Sefik - Very nice boutique hotel at wonderful location with clean rooms and excellent services. Sefik was great and helped with everything. Sefik arranged even trips and airport transfers and he was very kind and supportive. Thank you Hotel Des Arts Galata and especially Sefik for making my stay wonderful
- Serife (10/5): Würde immer wieder kommen - Die Lage und das Personal Es war alles sehr schön
- Martina (10/5): -
- ANASTASIOS (10/5): - Εξαιρετική τοποθεσία στο κέντρο της Κωνσταντινούπολης κάτω από τον Πύργο του Γαλατά. Ευγενέστατο προσωπικό, με χαμόγελο και αίσθημα φιλοξενίας. Σίγουρα θα το επισκεφτώ ξανά.
- نايف (10/5): - My sincere thanks and appreciation to Şefik at the reception for his kindness, outstanding professionalism, and continuous support throughout our entire stay. He was helpful in every way, and his warm smile and genuine care made us feel comfortable—truly like we were at home. I will definitely repeat this experience, because he made our stay truly special. He also pleasantly surprised me by upgrading my room, as a generous gesture, to one with a wonderful view of Galata Tower. The hotel is very clean, offers all the services you need, and is in a strategic location—close to everything. أتقدم بخالص الشكر لموظف الاستقبال شفيق على لطفه واحترافيته العالية ودعمه المستمر طوال فترة إقامتنا. كان مساعداً جداً في كل شيء، وابتسامته واهتمامه جعلنا نشعر دائماً بالراحة وكأننا في منزلنا. بلا شك سأكرر التجربة مرة أخرى، لأنه جعل من إقامتنا تجربة استثنائية؛ بل وفاجأني بترقية الغرفة ككرم منه إلى غرفة بإطلالة رائعة على برج غالاطا. كما أن الفندق نظيف جداً ومتوفر فيه جميع الخدمات، ويقع في منطقة استراتيجية مميزة وقريبة من كل ما يحتاجه الزائر. Konaklamamız boyunca nazik yaklaşımı, yüksek profesyonelliği ve sürekli desteği için resepsiyon görevlisi Şefik’e içtenlikle teşekkür ederim. Her konuda çok yardımcı oldu; güler yüzü ve ilgisiyle kendimizi her zaman evimizde gibi rahat hissettirdi. Hiç şüphesiz bu deneyimi tekrar edeceğim; çünkü konaklamamızı gerçekten özel kıldı. Ayrıca büyük bir nezaket göstererek odamı Galata Kulesi manzaralı bir odaya yükseltti ve beni çok mutlu etti. Otel de son derece temiz, tüm hizmetlere sahip ve oldukça stratejik bir konumda; her yere yakın.
- Emre (10/5): Magisk, trygt, fremragende. - Alt var rigtigt godt udover toilet døren, morgenmaden er også rigtig godt som er udenfor hotellet og foran Galata tower. Toilet døren, man kan høre alt.
- veli (10/5): Fantastisch - wij zijn zeer tevreden over dit hotel. Het is een aanrader de reden hiervoor is dat de hotelmedewekers zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam zijn. Daarnaast is het hotel gevestigd op een toplocatie waarbij alles makkelijk is te bereiken. Alles was top.
- shah (5/5): Extremely disappointed with the receptionist name is Elvin.. she was soo rude and arrongat whenever we asked about any s - The location Congested
- Альбина (10/5): - Очень уютный отель, красиво обставлен. Вкусный завтрак на выбор в местном ресторане. Отдельное спасибо администратору Шефику, очень приятный и обонятельный сотрудник отеля. Всегда готов помощь . Я забронировала номер с балконом с видом на башню. Спасибо огромное за гостеприимству.
- Aleksandr (9/5): Incredible staff and great location - A very nice small hotel in a great location, with lots of cafes and bars nearby, making it easy to get to various attractions. The staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly! It's a busy area, so it can be a bit noisy outside, but the hotel itself is quiet and cozy. Overall, I liked our room; it had everything we needed, was clean and cozy. It would be nice to improve some small details, for example, there aren't enough shelves in the bathroom, and the pillows could be better.
- Nedzmija (10/5): - The staff were extremely kind and welcoming. The breakfast at the restaurant was excellent, with a great view
- Juan Francisco (6/5): Buena calidad precio - Ubicación Ruidoso
- Mohammed (10/5): - An Exceptional Stay in Every Aspect Our stay at this hotel was truly outstanding. The location is superb, offering easy access to key attractions while maintaining a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere. The hotel itself is elegant, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed to ensure a relaxing experience. I would like to extend special appreciation to ( Shafiq ) at the reception, whose professionalism, courtesy, and genuine hospitality made a remarkable difference. His warm welcome, attention to detail, and willingness to assist reflected the highest standards of service. This hotel sets a benchmark for excellence, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a refined and memorable stay. I look forward to returning in the future.

- Victor (10/5): Excellent location! - I like the place is too close to Galata Tower ad Taksim, probably you can walk from here. The hotel give an upgrade with no cost. It is on top of the mountain, probably recommended only if you can walk hills.
- DIMITRIOS (8/5): Warm & Perfect staying! - Breakfast and services were very good!! The smile and the warm behavior of Mr.Mehmet and staff was perfect!!
- Dorothy May (10/5): We were happy with our stay and the staff are very accommodating and nice. - The breakfast was great and perfect location. It’s just few steps away from the Galata Tower. Overall it’s great place to stay.
- Yuichi (7/5): 便利でお得な宿泊でした。 - リーズナブルな値段で快適に宿泊できた。 施設がやや古く、浴室等が狭かった。

- Karochkin (7/5): хорошее расположение, доброжелательный персонал, вкусные завтраки и чистые номера. - отличное расположение, в минуте от Галаты, пять минут до фуникулера или метро, вкусные завтраки в кафе по соседству. с одной стороны номера выходят на шумную улицу с кафе, ресторанами и громкой музыкой всю ночь, в моем номере на первом этаже было проблематично спать первые две ночи, потом мне поменяли номер на высоком этаже, сам номер оказался гораздо меньше, за-то не так шумно.
- Kristina (8/5): Great bouquet boutique hotel for anyone wanting to be in the middle of it all! - I loved the physical location. Especially on arriving the staff was extremely helpful and kind. I was very excited to spend my first night in Istanbul at Hotel Des Arts Galata. When I left, the staff was again, exceptional. They called a taxi for me and told me the price. The room was cute and I loved looking right at the tower in the evening. I was able to walk around easily and found plenty of good food nearby. My only frustrations came from the area. Was it a great location, yes! But there were some downsides. I'm from the US and never around cigarette smoke so I'm very sensitive to it, especially if it's constant. Because of the area, even with the doors closed and windows closed, I could but stop the constant smell of it. I know it's common here, so it's no fault of the hotel. You should just be aware of it. Secondly, again, not the hotel but because of the area, even though it is winter, people were outside enjoying themselves and singing until about 3:30 am. Then the delivery trucks started around 4:30 am. That was challenging.
- Tobias (10/5): Jeder einzelner Mitarbeiter, unglaublich zuvorkommend. - Personal Geruch im Badezimmer
- Elisa (8/5): Buena opción con vistas inmejorables a la torre Galata. - Las vistas desde el balcón a la torre Galata, la amabilidad de los chicos de recepción y la decoración y limpieza de la habitación. En general, buena opción para alojarse! El ruido que hay en la calle por la noche... un tío estuvo cantando hasta las 2 am debajo de nuestro balcón (con tapones para los oídos mas o menos se soluciona). Los edredones son muy cortos para el tamaño de la cama (aunque esto nos ha pasado en todos los hoteles de Turquía)
- Claudio (6/5): - Posizione centrale Molto rumore e musica fino alle 2 di notte nelle vie sottostanti e camera non isolata. Stanza troppo piccola
- Kayahan (3/5): -
- Alfredo (10/5): - Staff excellent
- Jo (4/5): -
- Maureen (9/5): Excellent spot for a week in Istanbul. - Excellent location where we could walk to everything within 20 minutes. Galata Tower is at the end of the street. Tons of cafes and shops around. Free high quality espresso machine in lobby is excellent. Junior suite was large and comfortable with a nice clean modern bathroom. Appreciated 24 hour staff at desk who were all very helpful and courteous speaking English. A lot of street noise as loud tourists are walking by the hotel almost all night long. We needed noise cancelling headphones to sleep. Located at top of hill, so not appropriate for dragging luggage around this area on cobblestone streets and narrow sidewalks.
- saptak (10/5): - Great location and warm hosts - especially Shefiq and his sense of humor.
- Rebecca (9/5): - Excellent location, just a few seconds from Galata tower. Super friendly staff, extremely comfortable rooms. Definitely would stay again and recommend to friends.
- Evrim (10/5): Excellent location, outstanding staff — especially Şefik — and a truly comfortable stay - We had a wonderful stay and were extremely satisfied with our experience. The hotel’s location is excellent, very central and just a short walk from Galata Tower. Despite being in a historic building, everything was well maintained, clean, and thoughtfully arranged. What truly made our stay special was the staff, especially Şefik at the reception. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful. During a demanding night, the team showed great care and support, making us feel comfortable and very well looked after. The staff member who took over during the shift change was equally professional and friendly. The breakfast arrangement at the nearby restaurant facing Galata Tower was also a great experience — both the quality of the food and the atmosphere were excellent. Overall, this hotel truly deserves a very high rating. We felt welcomed, supported, and at home throughout our stay, and we would gladly choose it again. Nothing
- SofiaOfNorthfield (10/5): A Gem near the Galata Tower - Friendly, welcoming staff, that all spoke excellent English. Beautiful room, with a very comfortable bed. Fabulous neighborhood, near the Galata Tower and lots of restaurants. Highly recommended, and we will be back! Also, they help support the street animals of Istanbul.
- Zubir (8/5): Salata Stay. - Location steps distance from Galata Tower. Surrounded by so many unique caffe provided alot of delicious cuicines,traditional shopping with hard bargain. Staff very friendly,very helpfull, very kind and having excellent sense humor. Standard room without Television channel,inrernet little bit slow, for hotel breakfast we have go to nearby restaurant with very limited selection of menus.

- Georgios (10/5): - Πολύ ωραίο ξενοδοχείο, καθαρό, πολύ ευγενικό προσωπικό και η τοποθεσία ιδανική
- Christos (7/5): -
- Anton (4/5): - У объекта отличное месторасположение, прекрасный персонал, все приветливые и отзывчивые, прекрасные люди там работают! Очень маленькое пространство, не органично расставлена мебель, неудобно жить в этом номере, сильный запах сырости и плесени в ванной.
- Andrianakis (9/5): - Τέλεια τοποθεσία ! Κοντά σε πολλά σημεία ενδιαφέροντος ! Δεν υπήρχε τηλεόραση στο σωματείο και γενικά ο αποθηκευτικός χώρος ήταν περιορισμένος.
- Garcia (10/5): It was more than I could’ve dreamed of. I will definitely stay at Hotel Des Arts Galata on my next visit. I recommend it - The property was great. It’s right where you wanna be in Galata. Galata tower is just steps away and so are the shops and restaurants. Can’t beat its location I personally liked everything about the property. The staff is exceptional and extremely friendly.
- Gian Luigi (10/5): Boutique hotel a Istanbul - Il.personale molto cordiale. La posizione eccezionale vista Torre Galata noi avevamo la camera n. 7 con terrazzini con vista stupenda. Struttura accogliente pulita. La colazione veniva fornita presso un bar a 50 metri e nella hall c'era una postazione bar self-service. Praticamente nulla
- egorova2205 (10/5): - Отель просто супер, у нас был номер с балкончиком и видом на Галатскую башню. И это был вид на миллион!!! Превосходное расположение, идеальное для тех, кто планирует много гулять и перемещаться в разные районы Стамбула. Отдельно хочется сказать про завтраки - они проходят в кафе напротив, как раз около Галатской башни, и это еще один огромный плюс отеля. Потому что когда день начинается вкусно и еще в атмосфере такой красоты, это задает настроение всему дню. Сотрудники отеля очень доброжелательные и всегда готовы помочь. Выбирайте номер с балкончиком в отделе Des Arts Galata и наслаждайтесь Стамбулом!
- Danilo (10/5): A calm, beautifully kept stay with exceptional staff, thoughtful touches, and a perfect Galata location that lets Istanb - Hotel Des Arts Galata was an absolute pleasure to stay at. We stayed in an apartment with two balconies, located on the quieter side of the street, which made a huge difference — peaceful, calm, and perfect for slowing down after the city. The space was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained — nothing flashy, just done right. The staff were phenomenal: genuinely kind, attentive, and always one step ahead without being intrusive. Breakfast was excellent, served in a nearby restaurant with a beautiful view of Galata, which made mornings feel special rather than routine. A lovely surprise was a bottle of wine waiting for us, a thoughtful gesture as we were celebrating life — small detail, big impact. Warm, tasteful, and quietly memorable. A place that lets Istanbul speak, without noise.
- Chasdi (9/5): Great time - Great location, super friendly staff.

- La (10/5): - Otelinizde gerçekleştirmiş olduğumuz konaklamadan son derece memnun kaldık. Tesisin temizliği, konforu ve sunulan hizmetlerin kalitesi kusursuzdu. Ayrıca otelin konumu son derece avantajlı olup, konaklamamızı daha da keyifli hâle getirmiştir. Tüm ekibin nazik ve profesyonel yaklaşımı için teşekkür ederiz.
