Guest Reviews

• Stef (1/5): Scammers - The hotel was closed, without any notice We couldn’t get into the hotel
• Vikriot (3/5): Poor - location is good, near to center, galata tower and basically it is it bed is awful, it isn't king bed, it just 2 single bad connect to each other and what is the terrible part - they a wrong size and high! bathroom is dirty, unclean. no more. thx
• Delia (9/5): Superb - All staff was very friendly and professional. internet had good speed. I got a tasty omlette for breakfast and free tea. Overall very good service for the money totally recommended!! The stairs were a bit narrow my room was on second floor
• Balaussa (9/5): Superb -
• S (10/5): Exceptional - nice and helpful staff, hotel close to Taksim street and metro
• Valentina (1/5): Nightmare - Only location Just one person speak english, but you must find her time when she is working. Breakfast is far away from pictures. “Hotel” is a nightmare. Unclean, and ruin, far away from pictures. the rooms cannot be heated because nothing seals, but you will therefore smell the food that the employees prepare for themselves
• Ekinci (1/5): Bad - Fraud!!! I booked a place for a 1 night stay on January 4-5, I paid the money. The next day they called me and confirmed my reservation, but since there was no room at the hotel, I was asked to cancel the reservation. It was stated that my money would be refunded after cancellation, but no refund was made. I could not stay at the hotel and they took my money. I made an objection, there is no return!
• Adam (1/5): Dreadful experience - Nothing! Rude customer service from hotel manager who very callously informed us upon arrival that due to a booking.com error we had no room and was generally unwilling to offer assistance until we persisted in explaining that we had paid IN FULL therefore he had a duty to provide accommodation. At this point, we were informed that the only available accommodation was at a different hotel and given the lateness of our arrival we felt we had no choice. We planned to raise the issue with booking.com the next day. The new room provided was unhygienic and lacked even basic facilities (broken hairdryer) with really substandard living accommodation that was nothing like what we had booked. When we reached out to booking.com no resolution was offered and customer service were generally really unhelpful. Steer clear if you plan on staying in Istanbul!
• Ching (3/5): Poor - The water in the bathroom doesn’t work well, it could be extremely hot in one second and extremely freezing in the next moment. And the voice isolation is really bad. The standard of each staff is different which makes us so confused. For example, The breakfast is served in different flavours even though we have been ordering the same food every day (one day is very plain and very salty the next day…) One day they told us” this opinion is free” while the other day they asked us to pay.
• Davit (10/5): Exceptional -
• Janja (10/5): Cosy place on a great location - The room was clean, had good water pressure (and enough hot water), it had a space heater and water kettle (with complimentary tea options). It's close to a Metro station and close to ferry ports. Breakfast was great (limited options if you are staying for more than one night, but very tasty) Not a deal breaker, but maybe a note in order to avoid unpleasant feeling from some - the place is not as picture perfect as on booking photos (so some things are badly constructed, leaking or shabby), but based on previous experience this is how most properties in Turkey look like.
• Keane (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly staff. Meryl has been exceptional!
• Mary (6/5): Nice area cozy room - The location and the cozy style The cleaning! Towels doesn’t smells good and the breakfast was poor
• Tatyana (10/5): Charming boutique hotel with exceptional hospitality. - I’m so glad I chose Galata by Rich Hotel for my one-week stopover in Istanbul. First of all, the location is perfect. Iconic tourist spots like Galata Tower, Istiklal Street, and the scenic Bosphorus promenade are all within walking distance. The area is packed with restaurants to suit every budget, as well as delicious street food options. While the neighborhood is busy, the street where the hotel is located is relatively quiet compared to the surrounding area, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. I also felt completely safe staying here. Secondly, the hotel itself is wonderful. It’s a small, cozy boutique hotel in an authentic building, full of character and charm. It has a unique vibe that makes it feel like more than just a place to stay — it’s a hotel with soul. Finally, I can’t say enough about the amazing staff. Everyone went out of their way to make me feel like a valued guest. A special thanks to Meral, whose incredible hospitality truly made my stay unforgettable and made me want to return to this hotel again and again. Thank you to the entire team for such a fantastic experience! I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Istanbul.
• Radin (3/5): I don't recommend it - Behaviour of the staffs was really impolite. The towels was dirty and we ask several times to change it.
• David (8/5): Super friendly staff, excellent service and location for a budget hotel - Super friendly staff, excellent service and location for a budget hotel.
