Highly recommend this Hotel, great location, a retro feel with modern amenities and a great breakfast. Rooftop balcony with fantastic views over the towards the Grand Bazar, Mosques etc
Highly recommend a stay here
I had a large, spacious room, stylish as befits a classical Galata building. Huge bed.
The staff were efficient, friendly and helpful. Breakfast is on the roof, with fine views. It’s a normal Turkish hotel breakfast.
The hotel is set on the Golden Horn and near lots of wonderful areas.
I had a pleasent stay here, all the front desk staff were lovely and very accommodating. The only downside is the street noise at night, it’s very centrally located steps away from Galata tower so can’t really complain! I would suggest booking a room facing the rear side or the building.
Simply amazing place, the staff has been the most respectful people we have ever been with.
Extremely recommended hotel, we have a simply unique experience!
I really enjoyed my stay here at Nordstern Galata. The staff was incredibly nice every single one of them to include Ramadan, Ertugrul, Aziz, Onür and everyone! The room was ready way earlier than I expected and they were very friendly and hospitable! The view of my room was also amazing and it had a huge bathroom!
Fantastic wonderful staff, the absolute best location, great rooms and delicious breakfast.
I have travelled the world and would definitely stay here again and recommend it.
Amazing hospitality, 5 stars to the staff for their efficiency, friendliness, and helpfulness in accommodating guest requests. Hotel is well maintained and clean.
Staff was helpful in every aspect: check-in, tourist information, friendliness, assistance with helpful details, personal attention.
