Room was clean and in great location . The service was excellent

Everything from the stay was top notched! Will be back when we return to Istanbul

An amazing stay surpassing expectations. At first I was a little sceptical since some reviews mentioned loud noise, especially as we were staying there on a Friday and Saturday night. However, the stay was fantastic.
Staying in room 206, we were provided an early check in, full tour and a very dutiful explanation of the hotels offerings and recommendations of places to see and restaurants to visit. Eren went above and beyond with providing us with a list of great recommendations and showing us through the city map, highlighting his personal favourites away from the tourist traps.
Greeting us each morning and saying hello on the street when we bumped into him when his shift finished, his hospitality was a real asset to the hotel.
The rooms have everything you can think of, bottle of wine on arrival in the room, full complementary mini bar, all the amineties needed, loafers, shoe horn, polish, fantastic robes, slippers and a lot more. The rooms are decorated as you’d expect in a boutique hotel with a Soho House-esque feel and an unbelievably comfortable bed.
We didn’t have any issues with noise with our room being at the back of the hotel, and for those wanting to explore different parts of the city, I’d thoroughly recommend. The rooftop bar had an international crowd with greats wines and cocktails and fantastic food partnered with great view and attentive service.
For the price I don’t think you can beat it. Great hotel in a fantastic location.

An excellent hotel with well designed spaces. The way we were looked after was exceptional. We appreciated the help in securing a taxi on a busy wet morning. Highly recommend.

We received the warmest sincere welcome. Reception staff wonderful! Room immaculately clean and stylish. Beautiful bedding. Location is excellent for exploring the city with very handy tram stop opposite for going down to Karikoy. We had interior room 204 - had a little view down to the pool - didn’t need or miss an exterior view as the area is busy it likely contributed to such good nights sleep. Rooftop bars great. Would highly recommend this hotel and definitely stay there again on next visit to Istanbul.

A vintage style hotel set in 1920’s era, yet it has all the facilities of a modern hotel! The staff, roof top bar and the surrounding area are just amazing!
28.08.2025
We loved this hotel. In a touristy area, but a great base location for exploring the city. The staff were so friendly and helpful- above and beyond! Clean room and comfy bed. Will stay there again next time we're visiting.

Loved the hotel
Amazing stay at hotel. The standout from the experience was the staff. Always so helpful. Sinan on the front desk was lovely and always smiling and wanted to do everything he could to make my stay perfect.
Proper Turkish breakfast was superb on the roof terrace.
The location is great too if you want to experience the city. You can walk across to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia and you have all the delights of Beyoğlu on your doorstep.
I want to come back here with my family and allow them to experience the hotel too.

Reviews10.04.2024
Very close to the Galata tower (during my visit the tower was under reconstruction so that didn’t help). The staff don’t attend during late night/early morning so that’s something to note. The private room was a little small, but you can’t beat the price with that. The staff can be overwhelmed because they have guests and customers for their shop at ground floor but they are friendly really try their best to help you.
28.01.2024
I was so surprised when i saw my room and big bed! Rooms are not very big but it’s cozy. You can’t beat the location - walking distance to everything. And of course loved the hospitality of the owners. This was so refreshing comparator to big hotels. I would like to come back and for this price it will be always on my radar
23.10.2023
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel near Galata Tower! The personal touch from the staff made all the difference in the world. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. The location couldn't have been better – just a stone's throw away from the iconic Galata Tower, which made exploring Istanbul a breeze. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable stay in the heart of Istanbul.
01.05.2023
Cozy, quaint, affordable, clean, good bed, good water pressure and heat, good climate control, super friendly and accommodating guy to check in with. You can tell he genuinely wants to make sure you are taken care of. More than I need to be happy at this price. Not sure if there is a cafe here or if breakfast is served, didn't ask. The friendly guy has tea available and offers every time you go in or out. No elevator but if you are walking around this part of Istanbul you can handle it. A bit of noise from the street until about 10 or 11pm, but again, remember what part of town you are in. You get in via a jewelry shop, not super obvious from the street but trust Google maps and be observant when you are close.

Reviews17.12.2025
Fantastic boutique hotel in excellent location for shopping, bookstores, cafe society! Very French, in charm and hospitality and cuisine. Charming boutique hotel Close to Galeta Tower but on a quiet cobbled side street with antique shops & cafes. Lovely rooftop restaurant, perfect for breakfast or dinner or coffee with sweeping view of Golden Horn. Staff is very welcoming and helpful (I didn’t understand the shower!) (the came right up and showed me!) Our room was very comfortable & quiet.

A nice boutique hotel. We have had amazing experiences in the previous times I had been there with my wife. However the last time would probably be the last time because the pricing is just absurd. It is the inflation that is the biggest problem, but George Hotel milked this situation for every Cent or Lira in this case. The service is still impeccable, the rooms have so little privacy even with my partner it feels awkward at times, everything is within walking distance which is great, however, I don't think it is worth the price anymore... Value for money is just not there no matter how good of a service they have, the hotel feels worn out a bit, stiched together in places. I still love it, had the best memories years ago. But my last visit a couple of weeks still stings. In all fairness, if all you care about is service and accessibility to everything and price is not an issue nor is privacy. This hotel is for you. Otherwise you are better off somewhere else

My wife and I have spent wonderful time in Georges Hotel. The place is chic and beautiful, the service is very welcoming and helpful. The top terrasse restaurant view and food quality make it difficult to go elsewhere for dining. We've been blessed to discover that hotel. It's location make it so convenient to walk around the city historic neighbouroug and beyond.

Location is absolutely amazing, but we were lied about the room as we reserved a sea view with balcony but have received a “garden” view which smells like cat piss when you open the balcony. They said they have received a different type of reservation by the service provider and were showing a flying paper with a room code which responds to a normal room, which means nothing to us.
The rooms have molded floors around the bathroom, smell like mold and the view is non existent.
Bathroom ceilings are molded and when you take a shower the whole bathroom area has couple of centimeters of water. The shower was broken as well.
The beds are on the lower side of the comfort as well and the room isolation is like a cardboard.
Absolutely an awful experience and would not recommend despite the good location. I am leaving pictures so anyone can be a judge (can’t leave the scent unfortunately). It’s a 3 star hotel at the absolute most and don’t know how they got 4… maybe few years ago, but now everything is run down.
The manager Georges repeats 10 times how everything can be arranged and have a nice experience, but actually takes no action at all.
The staff tries to be nice and helpful but does nothing as well, probably because of management.
Note:
As a reply to the comment below, since its not possible to respond. We are free to do what we like stay or not, comment or not. Despite the wrong reservation, i left photos which has nothing to do with the reservation but just showing the real image of the hotel. So everyone can be a judge.

Really lovely boutique hotel in the heart of Galata!
I stayed at Georges Hotel Galata for five nights and had a great experience. The location is perfect: steps from Galata Tower and all the energy of Beyoğlu, with Karaköy's waterfront just down the hill.
The rooms have beautiful high ceilings that make the space feel elegant and airy. The showers are wonderful, and I loved the thick towels and sheets (plus there's a heated towel warmer, which is a nice touch). PRO TIP: ask for a room on the garden side if you can. The neighbourhood is lively and bustling, but the garden-facing rooms are surprisingly quiet.
What really stood out was the service. The concierge staff are genuinely kind and helpful, not just going through the motions. They made reservations at local restaurants for us and gave great recommendations. When I had a plumbing issue in my room, the manager Mr. Serkan personally checked on it multiple times and made sure everything was handled professionally. That level of attention makes a real difference.
Oh, and there's a charming resident cat named Lollipop who adds personality to the place
The rooftop bar has spectacular views and excellent cocktails. If you're looking for boutique luxury with personal service in the Galata area, I'd definitely recommend Georges Hotel.
