In this hotel everything was on top level. Zeynep and Salim and the rest of the staff took care for us for all of our visit in Istanbul. They were so kind and very helpful. They gave their 100% for creating for us incredible memories of our staying in this hotel. Breakfasts were so delicious with amazing view. Room was so comfortable. We received also free Internet. Localisation of this hotel was also perfect (close to Galata Tower, metro station, Galata Port and other must see spots). For sure I have to admit that for all this years it was the best hotel which I booked. I highly recommend this hotel!!! For sure when I will come back to Istanbul one more time I would like to book this hotel once again :))

Very nice hotel, positioned perfectly at the coast of Galata. 5 minutes to the public transport, trams and ferries, Karakoy district, shops, restaurants and bars. Staff was so nice and helpful. Room and the hotel itself was very clean and considering the location next to the busy street, room was relatively quiet and we didn't have problem sleeping well. Bed is the queen size, but enough for a short stay for couples. Breakfast is buffet stile, but the best thing about it is the fantastic 180 view of the bay, Galata bridge and the other side of the town, with Aia Sofia, Blue Mosque and Eminonu. From the bar above, you can see the Galata tower in the back. From the hotel tower is about 5-10 minutes away and if you continue up, you will find yourself in the Istiklal street, bringing you to the Taksim square. Only thing missing for this place would be nice swimming pool, but we knew it does't have one ahead of our arrival.

This hotel is excellent: in a great location close to Galata tower and transport options (metro Sishane). The rooms are clean, modern and well furnished. If you can, pay a bit extra for the top floor rooms with a terrace: the view of the Golden Horn and the mosques is out of this world and even better than on the photos provided on this site. This would deserve a 10 rating in itself but what made this hotel truly exceptional is the personal service by the owner and its team. Thank you very much for taking such good care!

Galata Tower

Medieval Galata Tower pierces the clouds above Istanbul’s skyline, a soaring sentinel to the north of the Golden Horn. A replacement for a previous tower that was destroyed in the crusades, this one was built by the Genoese in 1348. or hundreds of years, it was the tallest building in Istanbul – and its uppermost balcony still offers unrivalled city views today.

My favorite spot !

My favorite spot ! Always end up in that area at night , because it’s always busy, coffee shops are open after midnight! You can always hang out there ! I also love all the gifts shops in that area , good places to be souvenirs cheaper than the Grand Bazaar. You can also buy a ticket to go up the Galata Tower and see Istanbul on 360 degrees scale. Beautiful!!! But be prepared for the long line at the ticket window!

While the tower is great vantage point, overlooking the entire Golden Horn, the admission tickets are quite expensive and the place is crammed with crowds. If you decide to visit anyway, aim for the 30min before sunset

Another joke which is not even Turkish, as most of the monuments. Anyway. 35 euros just to inside the tower. If you want to use the lift you’ll pay 60 euros to enter. Told you these guys are born thieves! Amazing.

It's good that they have installed a set of lifts to get to the top of the tower. So you are not walking up too many steps. Best to get there early or towards sunset to see spectacular views with the mosques and the sea across Istanbul.

The staff are very kind and responsive, they are always ready to help... They helped me with my heavy luggage up and downstairs as there is no lift in the premises... The location is excellent, within a few minutes walk from the Metro station and from Galata Tower. The hotel is very clean and my room was big and had everything I needed.

When I am in Istanbul I choose this hotel. Good location near the Galata Tower, Istiklal Caddesi Street / many shops, restaurants. There is a metro nearby and it is also nearby you can catch a tram or ferry within 10 minutes walking distance. I recommend choosing a room with a view of the tower. Breakfast is included in the price or you can pay at the reception. Prices in Turkey vary/ we paid 8 euros per person for breakfast. The staff is helpful. The room cleaning is good. I will be happy to be a guest again interesting interior ;)

We really enjoyed our stay at Wilson galata Hotel. The location was perfect — it was very close to Galata Tower, and the tram station was also just a short walk away, which made getting around the city very easy. The staff were friendly and helpful, and my room was clean and comfortable. A special thanks to Kerim for his excellent service during our stay. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

We travelled Turkey for 14 days visiting several cities and towns. Even in Antalya we had much worse experience than in this amazing hotel in the middle of the busy street neat Galata Tower. I don't know how they managed but there is no sound in the rooms at all even though the streets are full of loud music. We stayed on the 5th floor. The breakfast is good, there is a choice of local food.

Absolutely yes! Istanbul is open restaurant. In every corner you can find perfect meal. Good to try fish restaurant in Bosphorous, or in Çiçek Pasajı. And also good to try restaurants in Maiden or Galata Tower with perfect city view. What it can be better than that!
