Guest Reviews
- Stephanie (10/5): - AMAZING! loved the area! the facilities the staff! First time to Turkiye and it did not disappoint!
- Silke (8/5): Tolles Stadthotel in bester Lage! - Super Lage! Tolle Restaurants, Cafés in direkter Umgebung. Straßenbahn T1 fährt direkt in die Altstadt zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Sehr schöne Zimmer, gute Dusche. Frühstück war im Nachbarhotel mit wunderbarer Aussicht und Rundumblick. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter. Zimmer vorne raus ist laut, aber bei geschlossenen Fenstern ist es ok. Treppenhaus ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen, bin über einen alten aufgerissenen Teppich gefallen. Aber kein Grund das Hotel nicht zu buchen!
- Marcus (9/5): -
- Rachael (9/5): Comfortable, convenient & very friendly. - The location was very convenient for seeing the Historical Sites in Sultanahmet. Staff were super friendly, accommodating and offered recommendations. The bed was super comfortable and room was fairly sound proof considering the busy street below! Very minor, but it was difficult to find a switch for the bathroom light & dehumidifier (we kept meaning to ask and forgot!) so we were unable to turn it off.
- Berezskiy (10/5): Приезжайте - Очень удобная локация, в номерах чисто и уборка со сменой белья ежедневная.
Завтраки хоть и не слишком разнообразные, но всегда можно найти что поесть и насладится очень красивым в дом на Босфор.
Персонал нереально классный и приятный, как минимум из-за них хочется туда вернуться! Все прошло отлично!
- Edith (10/5): -
- Mardonov (10/5): - Удобно очень к центру хороший завтрак на крыше номер каждый день убирает всегда чисто персонал очень дружелюбный
- Adele (9/5): -
- John (9/5): - Love the style.
- Catherine (6/5): Peut mieux faire - La localisation et le petit déjeuner Le petit déjeuner était dans un autre hôtel, la chambre très petite
- Patrik Neutjens (8/5): Would definitely go back - excellent location; friendly staff; nice rooms; cool overall decor and vibe breakfast was served in a rooftop restaurant next doors; whilst the view was fabulous, the breakfast buffet was a bit monotonous and lacked (not-Turkish) food options and variety
- Olexandr (9/5): - A good hotel. I would recommend this hotel.
- Hélène (10/5): -
- Jose Felix (9/5): Muy buena experiencia y hotel muy bonito para el precio - El personal fue muy atento y servicial.
- Monica (10/5): It's a very special place with a warm welcome and loads to see and do. - We felt really welcome. Mert and team were so hospitable and attentive - they really cared that we were comfortable and had all we needed. The hotel itself is in a good location with great options for lunch and dinner close by. There is also a really nice jazz club 5 minutes away. Tbh very little. It is on a fairly busy street, but noise wasn't too much of a problem for us.
- Sanne (8/5): -
- Jane (10/5): Excellent- thank you! - Exceptionally helpful, friendly and welcoming staff. Great location a few metres from the T1 tram stop, modern art gallery and easy walk from Galata Bridge. Smart very contemporary decor and spacious light room with good facilities and comfortable bed. Complementary Turkish coffee and tea in reception and kettle and coffee machine with pods in room. Excellent breakfast in neighbouring partner hotel on 9th floor with spectacular view. Highly recommended! Nothing
- Mariia (10/5): - The hotel stands out from the dozens of similar hotels in Istanbul, that's why I chose it. The rooms were exactly as they were in the photos, we had everything needed (even Bluetooth speaker). Rooms were small but clean and comfortable. I want to give a special thank you to the staff: Mert and Ibrahim were incredibly welcoming; I don't think any hotel has ever taken such good care of us as they did here! Thank you very much. I 100% recommend this hotel and I will stay here again. the pillow was too hard for me
- Laila (6/5): On the spectrum of hostel to hotel, much closer to hostel - Location was fantastic, staff were very kind and helpful. They checked in several times about whether there was anything they could improve which was nice, but the issue was mostly in advertising so didn't have much to say. The hotel itself is fine, just not quite what it's advertised to be. Certainly closer to a hostel in ambiance and amenities than appears from their website or reviews. Rooms are quite small with no real space to sit/be besides the bed, wifi doesn't really work, and everything feels a little run down.
- Eva (10/5): Tolles Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - Das Zimmer war schön und sauber. Das Frühstück war in Buffetform im Hotel neben dran mit Rooftop Ausblick und großer Auswahl.
Das Personal war immer ansprechbar, ausgesprochen hilfsbereit und sehr gastfreundlich. Das Reinigungspersonal war immer während unseres Frühstücks da und hat alles schön hinterlassen. Es gibt immer Kaffee und Tee und eine gemütliche Bar ist auch vorhanden. Die Haltestelle Tophane ist nur 3 min entfernt.
Die Lage ist sehr gut in Karaköy. Es könnte evtl noch eine Lampe mehr geben in dem Zimmer. Ansonsten gibt es nichts zu meckern.
- Ricky Campos (6/5): Buena ubiacacion, cama mala y desayuno regular a malo - La ubicacion muy buena, para salir a bares, y tambien para recorrer todo Estambul a pie, cerca de todo... La cama muy mala. para ir a desayunar tenias que caminar una cuadra, y el lugar donde se desayunaba estaba sucio,cables por todos lados, poca variedad, y la atencion no fue muy buena.
- Marius_76 (10/5): Good location for the short stay. - Location is more than perfect. In 2 minutes walk you have mass of restaurants, bars etc.... Staff is very friendly. Rooms are simple, but have all basic items. Tram T1 station is 100m from the hotel door, so you can reach most POI's very comfortably. Galata tower is 10mins walk away too. A bit noisy if you want to sleep with window open.
Bathroom doors are very noisy, (steel), a bit lack of light in the bathroom. Breakfast is in another building and is ok, but could be mo variety. No beer at the hotel's bar, but as there are plenty of bars around it is not a big issue....
- Ija (10/5): - Прекрасный отель, локация лучшая, рядом трамвайная станция, но и пешком все очень близко. Рядом много
В отеле современный дизайн, уборка каждый день, отзывчивый персонал, помогает во всех вопросах. Даже одолжили деньги, когда были праздники и закрыты обменные пункты.
Обязательно вернемся! Официанты на завтраке не слишком приветливы :(
- Thomas (4/5): - Nähe zum Hafen Kein Kleiderschrank im Zimmer.
Preisliste für im Zimmer befindlichen Getränke nicht vorhanden.
Zimmer winzig.
- Andrew (10/5): Great location, excellent staff, and very good facilities. - Stayed for five nights and had a really great experience overall. The hotel is well run and the facilities are excellent. Guests can also use the gym and spa at the sister hotel, Root, which are both very good. The location is a big plus, right in the heart of Karaköy and within easy walking distance of cafés, restaurants, and the waterfront. The staff were also fantastic. Mert and Ibrahim at the concierge were extremely helpful throughout my stay, and when there was a small air-conditioning issue in my room they quickly arranged a room change with no hassle. The elevator is quite small and there is only one serving the floors, so occasionally you might have to wait, but it was never really a major issue.
- Vincent (7/5): Travelman one time stay - Very nice people
The pictures on booking are old. the new interior is all black and paint look/smell pictures booking, old picture. the interior lounge total black now
- Oleg (4/5): -
- Maria Deborah (10/5): Boutique hotel di design nel cuore di Karakoy. Super consigliato - La struttura si trova nel cuore del quartiere Karakoy a pochi passi da tanti locali e dalla movida. L’hotel è molto bello, di design, curato nei minimi particolari. La colazione viene servita nel rooftop dell’hotel accanto, bellissimo ed è buonissima e abbastanza ricca e variegata. Il personale sempre gentile, disponibile e sono presenti in reception h24. L’ultimo giorno ci hanno portato anche della frutta in camera, gesto carino e super apprezzato. La nostra stanza era un po’ piccola ma nonostante questo era molto confortevole e curata. Forse avrei voluto più spazio per i vestiti.
- Alina (8/5): -
- Nicole (10/5): Great central location, nice surroundings, helpful warm and friendly team. - A very satisfied stay we were welcomed and taken to the tram stop on the first day to assist with a local travel card, it just made things a little smoother. Also keen to advise on any travel tips and accommodate any way. A very central location and hospitable team. Breakfast was located next door in the sister hotel a healthy selection and fantastic view. Showers worked great warm almost immediately and good force. Heater and air con worked well. The decor was quirky too.
We had a really pleasant stay. Only thing which was a bit high and too much puff for me was the pillows but that is just a personal preference. I like a flat pillow but they had no bumps which was good.

- Petros (7/5): -
- Feriel (8/5): -
- Guinevere (9/5): -
- George (9/5): Πολύ καλή τοποθεσία πολύ ευγενικό προσωπικό - Η τοποθεσία άριστη !!
Το προσωπικό τέλειο πολύ εξυπηρετικό !!!
- David (8/5): -
- PHILIPPE (9/5): - L emplacement, le déco, le petit dej très copieux
- Ekaterina (10/5): Уютный отель, отмеченный Мишлен в 5 минутах от Галатапорт - Отличный уютный отель рядом с Галатапорт, отмечен гидом Мишлен, приятный персонал, стильные номера, красивый интерьер в лобби, удобные кровати
- matteo (7/5): - Posizione Stanza troppo calda , bisognava stare con la finestra aperta.
- Mkrtych (9/5): -
- Maria (8/5): - Τοποθεσία χώρος πρωινού τιμή προσωπικό μαγαζιά καλά κοντά Φως στο δωμάτιο , το τζαμί δίπλα μας συχνά ακουγόταν
- Valentina (8/5): - Really great position, probably one of the best areas in town. You can easily walk to the main point of interests of the city. Really close to all sorts of bars and restaurants. My room was quiet despite the hotel being located in a popular spot. Not major but the rooftop, gym and spa are located in a other hotel situated a few blocks away. The gym there is not great, same for the spa.Generally the hotel is rather a 3 stars according to EU standards.
- Miguel (8/5): Hotel cómodo y muy bien ubicado. - La habitación es de un tamaño correcto. Buena ubicación, cerca de transporte publico y de restaurantes. Nada. Todo fué bien.
- Ahmed (5/5): Average hotel. With grey safety. - Nice location. Quite room. Clean I was stolen in this hotel. I discovered the theft at the last day. I reported to the management during check out. 300$ and 20 euros are not a money I may not notice it’s disappearance!! They texted me later that they checked camera (at the time I suspected theft to happen) and found no one entering my room. That doesn’t prove anything as much as doesn’t exile anything. I also reported suspicious behavior from one of the staff.
Because I stayed in the room for two nights. There were many chances to do this.
Anyway, the manager didn’t ignore my complaint. But the result was not fulfilling. I expected deep search for the whole stay period. Especially that I didn’t ask for any money. I just left and asked to find the thief. I will surely not come back again. And I assure everyone to take care. Because someone might be still there uncovered.
Hint: Room Safe is locked and doesn’t work. Sounds suspicious?!!
- Onur (9/5): Ein rundum angenehmer Aufenthalt mit sauberem Zimmer, perfekter Lage und außergewöhnlich hilfsbereit - Ich kann den negativen Kommentaren zu diesem Hotel überhaupt nicht zustimmen. Mein Aufenthalt im SuB Karaköy war absolut hervorragend! Das Zimmer war stets sehr sauber und komfortabel. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich die ruhige Atmosphäre des Hotels, obwohl es mitten in der Stadt liegt – abends war es immer angenehm ruhig. Die Lage könnte nicht besser sein: In nur 2 Minuten erreicht man die Metrostation und Busstation, und in 5 Minuten ist man am Galataport. Ein Bankautomat befindet sich ebenfalls nur 1 Minute entfernt.
Ein großes Lob geht an das Personal, insbesondere an Yazan und Ibrahim. Beide waren äußerst hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend – sowohl bei der Ankunft als auch beim Check-out. Sie haben sich immer wieder erkundigt, ob alles in Ordnung war, und bei eventuellen Fragen oder Problemen sofort eine Lösung gefunden. Der Service war wirklich top!
Ich kann dieses Hotel jedem empfehlen, der eine zentrale und angenehme Unterkunft in Istanbul sucht. Ich werde definitiv wieder hier übernachten, wenn ich zurück in der Stadt bin!
- Vanessa (8/5): -
- Ləman (10/5): -
- Olivier (7/5): - Perfect location Don’t expect too much of the gym: there’s no stairmaster and the treadmill is broken.
- Scott (8/5): - great location. cool hotel
- Dustin Maxwell (8/5): Eine Woche die wiederholt werden sollte - Die Lage ist perfekt wenn man schnell auf die asiatische Seite von Istanbul möchte oder alle anderen Sehenswürdigkeiten besuchen will. Die Dusche war leider etwas undicht und teilweise gab es leichte schimmelflecken
- Özen (10/5): Very unique -
- Sheauping (9/5): Overall, I still like it very much. - Convenience Elevator is too small and old
- Tricia (7/5): The hotel worked fine for the one night quick stay. - The location was good and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The bathroom was clean. Rooms are very small and beds sit low to the ground. I couldn't figure the TV out.
- Lisa (7/5): - Well located, cool decoration, great views for breakfast (nice food but nothing exceptional), kind staff, clean, comfortable bed. There was a party at the restaurant on the rooftop during the first night of our stay making it extremely loud and hard to sleep until 2am. That was really disappointing… pretty loud on any night anyway given proximity to the bars.
- Ak (10/5): Excellent choix car très central et personnel super 👍 - Emplacement très central Le bruit dans la rue
- Joël (7/5): -
- Nick (10/5): A fabulous, well priced, hotel in the best area for everything - What a lovely hotel, with great staff, and in the best location for everything. Tram only 2 minutes away will get you literally everywhere. Lots of little bars and restaurants on the doorstep and the most amazing breakfast room on the 9th floor with outstanding views, especially as it transforms at night to a very lovely top restaurant. We’ll stay next time in Istanbul! Nothing not to love!
- Harriet (2/5): -
- Juan (6/5): Noisy, akward decoration, good breakfast at top roof with wonderful view and well located - Breakfast at rooftop with superb view Very noisy, receptionist does not speak English, reception is in the middle of a bar
- Adam (8/5): -
- Albert Gabriel (8/5): -
- Nida (5/5): Super Lage , Bad braucht dringend eine Renovierung - Die Lage ist super Die Zimmer sind sehr dunkel gehalten mit schlechten Licht, die Ausstattung ist alt vorallem das Bad ist miserabel und muss dringend renoviert werden.
- Meryem (9/5): -
- Alanod (5/5): المكان ممتاز النظافه صفر - الصدق مكانه كويسه بس النظافه صفر من عشره
جلست اسبوع فيه زقاره تحت المغسله وكل يوم يجون ينظفون ولا شافوها!!! ولا الموظفين لطيفين مرا
بس النظافه قذاره المكان وسخ
- Wilson (6/5): -
- Joao (10/5): -
- Manon (10/5): Je recommande et reviendrai avec plaisir - Parfaitement situé à proximité des stations de métro et de ferry.
Situé au sein du quartier très vivant de Karaköy (bars, cafés, restaurants, pâtisseries, street food…)
La décoration de la chambre est vraiment sympa, le personnel était attentionné (à la réception comme pour le nettoyage des chambres)
Chambre particulièrement calme, literie confortable, salle de bain équipée
- mark (8/5): -
- nestor (10/5): - Everything was nice! The room amazing, the staff amazing and location also! There were something at the bathroom that smelled bad, maybe could be changed
- Alexis (8/5): -
- Sharyn (8/5): Location, location, location. - Great location, good value, quirky decor. No operational restaurant on premises but close to many other options.
- khaled (3/5): -
- Mohamed (4/5): -
- Beatrice (9/5): À ces jours au calme, dans un bâtiment ancien extraordinaire - Le bâtiment est extraordinaire, le petit déjeuner salé est très bon, à noter que ce n’est pas la même société qui exploite le restaurant et l’hôtel. Les chambres sont spacieuses très bien équipées et décorées avec beaucoup de goût et des matériaux authentiques, pas de plastique. La grande douche bien carrelée fait beaucoup de bien. Il peut y avoir de la musique le soir dans la cour centrale, mais les chambres sont bien insonorisées
- Wesley (7/5): -
- Jenni (8/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): - Great location, clean and comfortable room, friendly staff. Very safe. They didn’t give me the code to the wifi upon check in, when I called the front desk nobody answered and I had to go down there to speak to someone, the bathroom was showing real wear in the shower seal and other parts - in need of a tune up!
- Sara (9/5): Great Location and Modern Comfort in Istanbul! - Our stay at Sub Karakoy was excellent! The location couldn't be better – just a short walk from the Galata Bridge and near some of Istanbul's trendiest neighborhoods like Karakoy, Beyoglu, Kabatas, which are full of cool cafes, restaurants, and shops. The area has a lively, urban vibe, and we loved that the street parallel to the hotel was lined with great spots for breakfast or a casual meal. The hotel itself is modern and well-designed, with comfortable rooms that made for a relaxing stay after a day of sightseeing. This is definitely a perfect base for exploring Istanbul! The muezzin sound during the night. The hotel should provide earplugs
- Ioannis (10/5): Exceptional -
- Redben99 (7/5): Great location - The hotel enjoys a fantastic location, with breakfast served just next door at its sister property. There, you’ll find a beautiful rooftop terrace offering a generous buffet featuring a wide variety of authentic Turkish dishes. A tram stop is just a one-minute walk away, providing easy access to major attractions such as the Hagia Sophia and the Grand Bazaar. The breakfast staff could be friendlier and more attentive.
- Torsten (8/5): Great location, stylish atmosphere, and good value for money - We really enjoyed our stay at SUB Karaköy. The location is perfect – central but quiet – and the hotel has a modern, creative feel. Everything was clean and well maintained.
The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was fresh and tasty. Overall, very good value for money.
We would happily stay here again. /
- Sarah (8/5): Very good - The location is great, and the staff is friendly—special thanks to Eoa and Mert for their help and kindness.
- Michelle (9/5): Superb -
- Christopher (6/5): We loved Istanbul and the location of our hotel. We felt a little let down by the slightly tired state of the place and - Location The bathroom needed some serious renovation. The breakfast was not great. Lack of selection, poor coffee. The room it’s served in is really hot.
- Catherine (10/5): Absolutely amazing stay, would return - Super well located, clean, and different than a regular hotel room. Gym was nice and breakfast on the roof amazing Nothing
- Desiree (9/5): Superb - Subkarakoy was central clean and breakfast at the Root hotel excellent
- Rifat (10/5): wonderfull experience thank you to all team of Sub Karaköy - amazing hospitaly amazing team amazing hotel
- Nicholas (9/5): Superb -
- Galina (10/5): Exceptional - Best location, best hotel, close to everything in my interest and in walkable distance from coffee places, restaurants. Very nice area close to the sea and to the new Istanbul neighbourhoods. I recommend the place.
- Jose (10/5): Amazing location and perfect stay for Istanbul - The location was perfect. Karakoy is a wonderful suburb to walk around. Plenty of cafes and restaurants. Walking distance to port, Galata tower and other attractions. The tram/cable car stop is just around the corner - which can take you to the Metro or directly to Sultanahmet. The accomodation was very comfortable and had a very artistic and modern feel, which ties in well to the Karakoy aesthetic. Would definitely stay here again. Nothing. But I was travelling alone and the space was perfect for my needs. Some couples may find the rooms on the smaller side but definitely sufficient.
- Ana (7/5): Good - The location is very central. There are a lot of restaurants and cafés around.
The stuff was extremely friendly, always helping and taking care of the guest. The area is very loud—like, really loud. I live in a city, but Istanbul is another category. My room was facing a courtyard and still I couldn't open the windows. I also had no view and the room was very dark. Upstairs was a restaurant that I could hear until late.
The room needed some maintenance and a deep clean. Neither the small stereo nor the Nespresso machine were working. The hotel gym also needed maintenance and some equipment (very typical for a hotel gym).
When leaving the room and taking the card out, the fridge also turned off. My food went off—something maybe to consider.
- Claire (8/5): Very good -
- Esther (6/5): Just ok - Breakfast Took a long time to get a taxi. My luggage, with my stuff in it was knocked over. Housekeeping knew about it but didn’t say anything. Front desk was going to follow up with the manGer but nothing happened
- Robert (8/5): Great location and friendly staff - Location was excellent, had everything you wanted. Room was clean and had good facilities. Some of the carpets have strands coming off and the staircase carpet is worn. Bathroom had been repaired before.
We weren’t told about breakfast so to be told the breakfast was additional cost at check out was a surprise.
- Julie (8/5): Very good - great location and really good breakfast with a nice view ( rooftop from their other hotel next door) noisy plumbing but we only spent one night so it was OK
- Kate (7/5): Good - Great location! The air con wasn't working properly, and the shower overflowed with water. The room wasn't as spacious as other accommodation we have paid for on this trip.
- Guntars (8/5): Very good -
- Sam (9/5): Superb -
- Samuel (9/5): Super friendly staff, great location amazing breakfast really fresh and such a great location also for breakfast with a - Great design amazing Breakfast and great Breakfast location To be honest nothing would have been great to have the bar downstairs and it’s opening soon
- Lars (8/5): Very good -
