We had a great stay at this hotel! The location in Karaköy is super convenient. The property has been recently renovated, so everything feels fresh, clean, and modern. The staff were really nice and welcoming, always happy to help with recommendations or any questions. For the price, it’s an absolute steal—excellent value for money. The pastries at breakfast were delicious and as a lovely touch, they even gave us a beautiful souvenir at the end of our stay. Would definitely come back!

They should make a deal with one of the two close by car park for more affordable parking for those with a car.

All the staff were extremely helpful and attentive, making our stay very enjoyable. The manager was exceptional, assisting us not only with a few issues we had outside the hotel but also providing detailed directions and suggestions for nearby attractions. Their support truly went above and beyond. Amazing experience - would definitely stay here again!

A bit small but didn’t bother us because we only slept there!

A Perfect Stay in Karakoy Smart and Simple Hotel Karakoy offers the ideal location – New Hotel, vibrant yet peaceful, away from the noise of Galata but close to everything. Karakoy is a growing area with great bars, food, and its own lively charm. It’s a short walk to Eminönü and Sultanahmet, with easy access to key landmarks. For accommodation, Karakoy feels like the best choice – quieter than Galata but just as central. If you’re visiting Istanbul, stay in Karakoy or Galata for the best experience.

They offered free coffee and croissants. They offered me coffee even after I had checked out and was waiting for my airport transfer. Also they were thoughtful and helpful about sightseeing questions. And, they let me checkin early as I arrived in the morning.

The staff were super helpful and friendly. The location is great - so many restaurants nearby (fun vibe, lots of locals) and it’s easy to get to the old town historical sites 15 minutes by tram

The hotel is new and situated in a vibrant area of Istanbul, surrounded by a variety of charming restaurants. It’s also conveniently close to a beautiful promenade along the Bosphorus, perfect for a leisurely stroll. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. The room was clean, well-equipped, and provided everything I needed for a comfortable visit. A delightful bonus was the complimentary coffee and croissant served in the morning, adding a thoughtful touch to my experience.

Having followed some of the previous comments about the choice of this hotel, I can only confirm the opinions of other travellers and also can say that this is a great discovery. The hotel is indeed new and the condition of the rooms and the decoration is really top notch. What's more, it's very well located, just a 10 minute walk from Galata Tower and the old town, the area is nice and lively & right next door in the same street you have the best fish wrap in Istanbul 😉 Thanks again to Emre and his team for their very warm welcome and their great availability 👍

Everything was excellent. Emre the hotel manager was especially kind and helpful.

This is really a smart and simple hotel. Location is excellent next to the Kılıç Ali Paşa Hamamı, İstanbul Modern and Galataport. Very close to the tram stop. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler.

The hotel is new and ideally located. This is my second time staying in the area, and this location is close to everything you need. It’s just a few steps away from Galata Port, offering an absolutely stunning view. The hotel itself is wonderful—very clean and bright, with an incredible staff.

Honestly i discovered this hotel last minute and im gutted i didn’t discover it earlier. The room Was spacious, clean, comfortable. The bed was probably bigger than a double bed which was nice. Shower power was excellent. The staff are really helpful and very welcoming. The location of this hotel is so convenient as we had all the restaurants and some night life on our door steps. So many amazing breakfast places to choose from and coffee shops within 2/3 mins walking distance.
