The Halich Hotel Istanbul Karakoy - Special Category

The staff was tremendously helpful! We forgot a wallet in a taxi and they helped us retrieve the wallet. Then, my wife threw her back out the next day while sneezing. The staff helped me find a local pharmacy while comforting my wife. The room was great!

The only thing is that we had to leave. We would have loved to stay a couple more nights.

A very clean, modern and perfectly located hotel near main sightseeing attractions in all directions. The lovely staff were so friendly, hospitable and professional. I loved the delicious breakfast with stunning panoramic city view. Highly recommended.

No issues to report, everything was great.

An absolutely gorgeous brand new hotel. Beautiful views of the sea and Galata Tower. Excellent location in walking distance to Haliç Metro and Karakoy Tram, with bus stops right in front of the hotel. The warmth and courtesy of the staff is memorable.

Absolutely Nothing.

The staff was very helpful

The facilities seemed rundown and not well maintained. There was broken glass in a window, and the flooring was damaged and peeling. When you walked across it, it caught on your shoes. The shower only heated up to a tepid warm temperature.

The staff are really kind and helpful. Ceren , sevgi, tolga and furkan. We’re very helpful and made sure we’re all well and comfortable. The location is very close to the karakoy tram station and the metro station which makes it easy to get around the city and visit all of the best spots. The view is incredible, we can see the galata tower from the restaurant, and from the other side all of the mosques and historical area.

The rooms were quite small but it’s okay.

Location, Room service, cleanliness, breakfast

Breakfast is too expensive. Staffs should be a little bit more fluent in english.

Great Location. We went alone and discovered a lot in the city. Galata bridge just opposite the hotel, Also metro there and if you are going to meet this area, this is the best way to do it. Breakfast was really tasty, with wonderful view. We would go again to the same hotel.

Even if something small, I believe all good vibes have covered it. I dont really remember something bad in our case

Really enjoyed my stay! The staff were super friendly, the location was perfect, and the breakfast was great. The room was clean and comfy, would definitely stay here again!

Friendly staff - very helpful.

We booked this based on description of roof top dining in our hotel, however that was not the case. There was also a large hole in the ceiling in the hallway by our room.

It was clean, quiet, and instant coffee and water were providence daily. There is a very good cafe right next door that served excellent, inexpensive coffee.

The area it is located in, while convenient to the Galata Bridge and area, was rather industrial. We had a room at the back of the hotel, facing the Galata Tower, so that made it quiet.

The views and that the rooms were cleaned everyday

The location, even though it was central and close to many important sites, was surrounded only by buildings like a ghetto, with garbage, warehouses, a pretty shady area.The receptionists, although the reservation stated that we had free parking within the limits of the available spaces, asked us for €20 per car per day, then when they saw that we didn't understand why it was initially free and then we were asked for money, they said it was a new rule, that it wasn't actually a scam and that they were giving it to us for free.The room windows didn't close properly, and all the noise from the surrounding streets could be heard very clearly, as if we had the windows completely open and we couldn't rest at all (neither in the room with a view of the Bosphorus, nor in the rooms with a view of the Galata Tower).The elevator was always breaking down, one day we had to go down and up 8 floors, after walking/visiting all day, because there was no one to fix it.

The view from breakfast was nice

Bed barely has one sheet so it doesn’t feel like a 4 star hotel to be honest, no noise isolation from the outside. Elevator takes forever. Breakfast was not great either, have to pay extra for an omelette or a cappuccino and the machine was broken. The waiters are constantly taking the plates from the tables which is so much that feels annoying.

Had a very pleasant stay the place was clean, well-located, and the staff, both at the front desk and in the restaurants, were incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional.

The property is well located. Rooms are comfortably and spaciousThe amenities such as lobby and hallways are not in good shape

The overall space is dated and many things were broken as the ice maker. We were changed rooms 2 times from our room because once the AC broke, the other one the window didn’t close. We ended up being updated to a room with water view

This is my second stay at the Halich Hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The location is great!

Amazing location, GREAT GREAT view, one of the best in the city. Super helpful stuff and PERFECT breakfast! Super super recommended ?

Location was very convenient to main attractions and different ways for transport Rooms are clean

Great location directly at the Golden Horn. Very good breakfast and comfortable bed.

I had to pay cash the pre-ordered airport-transfer offered by the hotel. No real receipt for that.

The location is great, close to everything. Room was specious, they cleaned and changed the towels everyday, every other day the sheets. On the downside, the shower was moldy, the furniture had cigarette makers, the bed was making sounds at every move.

Nice hotel, normal room with modern furniture and everything you need. Nice bathroom with shower.

During my stay, from the back of the hotel, there was some external noise, from early morning to late evening.Which is very annoying and I never understood what it was? When you close the window, you can't hear much....
