Our room didnt have a window, it was completely dark and the light was so poor it barely lit up the room. The bathroom smelled rotten and even though we kept the door closed, the smell still came inside the room. Breakfast was ok, but only traditional food and mostly foods you would eat for lunch, not breakfast. The shower was mouldy, the toilet wouldnt flush properly. There were only 2 sockets in the room and 1 in the bathroom so since we were 3 people, someone had to charge their phone in the bathroom. The bed sheets were ok, not totally clean but acceptable. Staff was nice and came to help if we needed something.
On the other hand, my friends’ room was even more of a disaster. It rained and the paint came off the walls and fell on the bed. The bathroom had no light and the staff came 3 times to change the light bulb and it still didnt work.
Try to avoid this place, but for one night its ok…

We are very pleased with the hotel, the staff was very kind and helpful, the food was very tasty, the room was very clean and had a view of the Golden Horn, Galata Tower and the bridge between Europe and Asia, the beds were very comfortable and there were enough towels for everyone and overall I am very glad that I chose Golden Horn Park Hotel for our vacation in beautiful Istanbul 🇲🇰❤️🇹🇷

Very local. Cool balcony
23.10.2025 Chloe
Staff were very friendly and gave us a free upgrade! However the bathroom needs better maintenance (broken toilet seat).
The free breakfast was yummy, there were a lot of options.
Fair price and good location nearby lots of shops and markets.
25.08.2025 Hayat
A truly good choice at a reasonable price. This hotel has a nice location in Eminönü, but the surrounding area was a bit dangerous. Other than that, the cleaning staff, room service, and staff were very respectful and welcoming. I recommend it.
14.07.2025 hello
The worst hotel I have ever stayed at. If you want to be depressed your whole trip in unsanitary conditions then this may be a match for you. We would stay out late at night outside to delay ourselves from going into the hotel. I’m SUPRISED it’s still in business. The moment we arrived at the hotel the smell of sewage was so strong it was unbearable. The room was so dirty and dusty we thought we had the wrong room. Forget the wifi it doesn’t even work. The owner admitted to going inside our room when we were away and it was not for cleaning but for using the bottom of my bed as a storage unit for the hotels pillows. We found this out when he told us that he found a small spill on the bed (it was tea but nothing a wash can’t remove) and said next time he was charging us 15 euros for anything that spills. This man is outrageous! Treated me like a kid and like I spilt my tea on purpose when it was a small spill because of my baby and told me not to do it again. The aggression was very hostile and I felt disrespected. Keep in mind he will try to charge you for everything . Every possible thing. They your room whenever they want without permission. Be careful if you are a solo traveller this place is very very sketchy they have something going on. The hotel is in the middle of a street that looks abandoned and somewhere out of a horror movie. there were a lot of bugs around and the room was very dirty. He will try to scam you in every way possible. If you spill something 15 euros even after apologising. 10 euros a day for parking spot that will get absolutely filled with a mountain of cars so it takes about 20 minutes for your car to be freed if parking anywhere but the front. it’s really not worth it. Driving down the streets is very dangerous it’s all rock and the streets are broken apart with cliff like edges. People inside the hotel were very loud and nothing was done about it. Elevator wasn’t working so had to use the stairs. No remote for tv. No workers that came in to clean our room for some reason. Id never come back here and I’ll make sure never to step a foot even close to this hotel it has left me ptsd and trauma. It’s so sketchy and feels unsafe please go somewhere else if you want to not dread your stay. Breakfast tasted like it was recycled over and over again. This hotel deserved to be permanently shut down closed off from the public this is so ridiculous.
14.07.2025 Bob
I would rate this hotel in the minuses if I could. Absolutely dreadful experience and you will experience it too if you stay here. Maybe bring your enemies here. The whole hotel room smells of human waste the bathroom smells rotten. There’s mould growing inside the shower. The toilet was broken and didn’t flush we informed the owner 4 times for him to send his kid to fix it each time and it would still not flush. Our entire stay the toilet was making loud water noises like it was flooding keeping me awake at night . The room was extremely dirty the walls had dried up snot and brown spots all over them. There was a huge spider inside the toilet upon arrival. The fridge smelt like the inside of a garbage disposal and looked like it had never been cleaned. The bed was really uncomfortable sheets didn’t feel clean. The room feels very claustrophobic and smal and has nothing special to it it feels like the inside of one of the ripped apart houses like the ones in its surroundings. I felt uncomfortable it doesn’t feel like a hotel room but a strangers house. I would pay not to eat their breakfast dont even waste your time going downstairs. The Wi-Fi shouldn’t even be considered wifi as it not only is extremely slow but cuts out for hours and comes back for a minute or two with extremely slow speed. The hotel looks fancy and decorated on the outside but is just a false alarm as the inside looks like an abandoned farm house. The owner was not helpful with any of our problems and had his kid working in the lobby until midnight all alone. Oh you also have to pay for 💩 parking in the middle of nowhere don’t go here. Our taxi driver couldn’t find our hotel because it’s under the cliff of a side street. Horrible experience won’t return again. It’s really not close to any good attraction unless you count houses that look like they’ve been intruded with broken windows and dangerous side walks with cars dashing towards you there are better options out there and it’s DEFINTELY not a cheap option either.

Spacious room, friendly staff.
I didn't like the fact that one window has no blinds, which forces you to wake up early.
05.05.2025 Petra
Terrible hotel. The reception was almost always empty, and we had to hunt down a staff member whenever we needed something. At one point, they even sent someone who looked about 14 years old to the front desk. The room was pitch dark even during the day because the window faced a wall just 5 centimeters away. If someone farted two floors away, I heard it like they were right next to me. So yeah, that should give you an idea of the amazing soundproofing in that place.

Every day brought a new issue we weren’t expecting: the internet went out, the power went out, we couldn’t access our room, etc. In a whole week, the room was never cleaned, and the towels were never replaced—despite us asking three times. Each time, they promised but never followed through.

The furniture was broken, the mattress had springs sticking out (which was dangerous), and the bathroom was moldy, with visible hair everywhere. It felt hazardous to our health. Everything the hotel advertised on their website was false.

The neighborhood was run-down and felt unsafe. Breakfast was repetitive and poor—there weren’t even knives. Anything we happened to like disappeared from the menu for the rest of the week.

We thought about leaving for another place every single day. It was not a good experience at all. In Hungary, places like this would be shut down and fined.

I had a wonderful experience at this café! The atmosphere is absolutely stunning — the beautiful stone arches, cozy seating, and warm interior design create such a relaxing and classy vibe. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy your time.

One of the best parts is the breathtaking view. You can clearly see the Galata Tower, and the entire surrounding area is visible from the café. The panoramic view makes the whole experience even more magical, especially while enjoying a coffee.

The service was excellent, and a special thanks to the host, Muhammad, who was incredibly welcoming and attentive. He made sure everything was perfect and made us feel genuinely comfortable.

The seating is comfortable, the ambiance is peaceful, and the overall experience was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a charming café with great hospitality and one of the best views in the city.

Will definitely visit again! ☕✨

Great breakfast, amazing Bosphorus view, and excellent service.
Everything was fresh and delicious. Special thanks to Mr. Muhammet for his kindness and attention.
Definitely recommend!
26.02.2026 Juan
Visiting Halic Coffee has been an incredible experience. Great food and service, but the best is the incredible view over the Golden Horn of Estambul. Beautiful place!. Thanks.
01.01.2026 D
Perfect spot for breakfast, coffee or shisha with beautiful view, except it is understaffed and you could wait way too long. 45 minutes for cappuccino (other person from table already had his long ago) and over 1 hour for breakfast. It’s okay if you have a free day, but not if you have a schedule.
01.01.2026 Glenn
Such a beautiful view and great room. We stayed in and watched the fireworks over new year from the room and it was excellent. close to the metro and easy to navigate.
The owners and staff were extremely helpful, booked a taxi to the airport for us and were very accommodating, conversating with us and offering tea.
