About this place Rooms Galata

Rooms Galata, at Kumbaracı Yokuşu 37, is a small hotel in a steep, cobbled street that runs down from the Galata Tower area towards Karaköy, in Istanbul's Beyoğlu district. You're within walking distance of İstiklal Caddesi, Cihangir, the Galata Bridge, and the Karaköy ferry and tram stops - though be prepared for a climb with your luggage, as the hills here are brutal. Since 2015, the authorities have banned Istanbul Pride, and LGBTQ+ venues in the area operate discreetly, so it's a good idea to be mindful of public displays of affection. Google reviewers have given the hotel 4.2 stars from about 115 reviews.

This is not a hotel - it’s a hostel. The listing advertised a sea view, but in reality you have to go through a maze of corridors, tiny staircases, and two elevators just to reach a shared terrace where you can finally see the sea. The room itself had a tiny balcony (about 1 meter wide) facing a wall, not the sea. The photos and description are very misleading. The building is extremely inconvenient: narrow stairs, multiple elevator changes, and elevators so small they can barely fit one person with luggage. We checked in and immediately decided to leave because it was nothing like what was advertised. We ended up renting a proper hotel for the same price, which offered a much better experience. If you’re expecting a hotel with a sea-view room, be careful. The “sea view” is not from your room, and the property feels much more like a hostel than a hotel.

We spent almost 10 days in this lovely hotel. And every day at any time, the exceptional staff was there to listen to us, or even share unforgettable conversations. I recommend, and I would come back. Rodin

stylish and comfortable rooms with some reaaaally aesthetically pleasing lighting. The staff have all been really welcoming and outreaching to help us anyway they could. The location is conveniently tucked away in arguably the best area in Istanbul.
