Good hotel but not the perfect location
The location of the hotel as described in its website says that it is 500 m from Taksim square which is totally untrue. To go to Taksim, you have two options: Either walk to the tunnel and take the metro for one station then you will reach the Istklal street that is 2 km away from Tksim square. Or walk to the station named ''Shishane'' and take the metro also to Taksim station. If you prefer to walk it is not easy because you will walk to the Tunnel then walk 1.2 KM in an incline road totally hard then reach Istiklal street and walk 2 km to Taksim. So this is the worst point about this hotel and I have to add that the street where the hotel is located is dark at night and thus unsafe to walk ! The stuff are very nice but don't undertsand English that much. The high floor sea view room is a nice choice where you can enjoy the view of the OLd city acccross the Golden Horn. The breakfast is moderate (not really open buffet) , very few options compared to other hotels.

Entertainment tip:
Short walk from hotel
You can take a boat in the Golden horn and reach ''Pierre Lotti'' at almost the end of the Golden horn where you can take a telefrik and see Istanbul from a high point and may be having a cup of coffee at Pierre Loti's cafe.To take the boat and the telefrik you can use your Istanbul card for metro or the token.

gut gelegenes Hotel
Das Hotel ist grundsätzlich an einer guten Lage, wenn da die stark befahrene Strasse nicht wäre, die enormen Lärm verursacht. Das freundliche Personal sowie die Sauberkeit und das Restaurant auf dem Dach, machen die schlaflosen Nächte wieder Wett. Das Frühstücksbuffet lies keine Wünsche offen, war super. Die Zimmer sind eher klein und sollten unbedingt in den obersten Etagen liegen.

dünne wände
Sehr dünne Wände. Wenns mal im Nebenzimmer laut wird kann man nicht schlafen. Man hört sogar den Fernseher vom Nebenzimmer. Des weiteren war unser Bett sehr hart. Die Aussicht aus unserem Zimmer wurde verbaut. Man sah nur aus einem kleinen Winkel rüber zur Altstadt.

Très bon hôtel
Hôtel situé dans le quartier de Galatassaray, à deux pas du célèbre pont d'Istanbul. Bien situé, avec vue magnifique sur la Corne d'Or. Nous avons bénéficié d'une chambre avec vue sur le Bosphore sans supplément de prix, merci ! Bon accueil par le personnel et très bonne chambre. Petit déjeuner très copieux au 10ème étage (vue magnifique sur Istanbul); Je recommande vivement cet hôtel. Depuis l'aéroport prendre le métro et ensuite le tram ( prix modique)
