We enjoyed our stay here. The location was central, close to the old town, public transportation and the ferries and trams. The coffee shop was very good and a lot of shopping nearby. The room was comfortable with a fridge and very small safe. The staff were excellent, very helpful with dining suggestions, booking airport transfers and just getting around. A good value small hotel.

The hotel has been sympathetically renovated and is very tasteful. My room was just as advertised. Staff were very friendly and helpful at all times. The hotel is in a central location near the Galata Tower. There are many gift shops and cafes on the same street as the hotel. The new Cat Museum (charming) is just round the corner, and the Dervish Museum is just up the hill. The ferries are about a 10 minute walk away, as are the Galata Bridge and the restaurants and shops around Beyoglu. The hotel is also close to the Tunel, the funiculaire which runs up and down the hill.

Great hotel for our 4 night trip to Istanbul. Super central and convenient location close to Galata Tower. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The in house coffee shop with resident cat was a very nice bonus. Rooms were excellent and well sound proofed so no noise from the street was heard. Would highly recommend people stay here for their trip to Istanbul.

Fantastic little hotel with welcoming staff

A charming, boutique, well located hotel with very friendly staff. The manager and front desk host were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The cafe has great coffee and food. I generally stay at Soho House but they were booked. What a surprise this hotel turned out to be. The hotel is on par with Soho and the price can't be beat! Don't hesitate to book.

Charming Boutique Stay, But Not Luxury

We stayed in the Deluxe Suite at World House Boutique Hotel Galata. The room was clean, cute, and very spacious, though the online photos make it look more luxurious than it really is. When we arrived it was quite warm, but the air conditioning cooled it down quickly. The balcony was disappointing: it’s small and faces directly into an office building with people working late, so we had to keep the curtains closed. Instead of the city/garden view suggested, it overlooked the coffee shop below and the building’s stairs. The shower was nice, though the showerhead could have been cleaner. No robes were provided — not necessarily expected for a 3-star, but would have been a nice touch. The biggest plus is the location: right on a lively shopping street with restaurants nearby. Overall, a decent value for the price, but definitely more “charming boutique” than luxury.
