Bankerhan Hotel

After several trips to Istanbul, I found the place that I'll stay for every trip in the future. Everyone at Bankerhan was incredibly welcoming and helpful. They accommodated extra nights easily, upgrading my room. Excellent views!

the closeness to everything and the great staff.

In a happening area, right near Galata tower

Great bang for the buck!

The hotel is in the new city center on the European side. It is on a quiet street in a popular tourist area. The location is unbeatable, very close to the tower, the public transits (the tram, the Metro, the bus), the Bosphorus cruise docking, the pier, the bridge over to the old city, etc. We were upgraded to the sea view with balcony, which has the best view of Istanbul and itself worth a million bucks. The breakfast is standard, a little less impressive than the view, but adequate. We will certainly stay there when we visit again.

Maybe the breakfasts could have more authentic local dishes and more varieties. But overall the breakfast is adequate and the dining area is clean and nicely decorated.

The location is perfect : two thirds down the Galata hill, a stone's throw away from the Karaköy tram stop and jetty, and just above the entrance to Tunel, you can quickly get from here to everywhere in Istanbul, be it on foot, by tram, by boat, or by metro. As for the room, it was big and spacious and the bed super comfortable. We stayed a week, no problem ! Staff were very very welcoming and super friendly, and breakfast was plentiful.

It would have been perfect if we would have been able to get some food (even just snacks) and drinks later in the day, too.

Rooms were clean and spacious. Nice view on the city and Bosporus. It's located in a quiet street and had no issues with late night disturbances due to noices from within or outside the hotel. Easy walk to public transportation or the Galata district. Would stay here again!

Nothing really

Hotel view Is unique, Staff is very welcoming and will help you with anything you need. Best stay ever in Istanbul

The location of the hotel was fabulous. It was spotlessly clean & the choice of breakfast was great. The staff were excellent, especially the two guys on reception….Cagdas & the daytime guy. They were so helpful, nothing was too much trouble. I highly recommend this hotel and will be coming back next year.

Very good location in the heart of Galata but still quiet in a side street - modern rooms and good reception/ helpful staff

Fridge was very loud in the room

Location and the facilitation, excellent customer services and very helpful, staff upgrade our room with a better room in the rooftop, excellent view

Amazing views, excellent location.

Small rooms.

The location is perfect, on a quiet side street in Galata and within walking distance of Karakoy (restaurants, bars & ferries), Istikal Caddesi and the tram across the Golden Horn to the main historical sights. The breakfast was high quality, healthy and lots of vegetarian options. All of the staff were so helpful, though the breakfast staff were particularly wonderful.

Our bathroom was a little small, though the shower was still a good size.

Everything was great. The location is very convenient for exploring the city, and the street is small and quiet, despite being in the city center. The breakfast was excellent, offering both sweet and savory options. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful.

The beds are very low; it didn’t bother me, but if you have any mobility issues, this might be uncomfortable.

Great value for money. Clean, nice rooms, staff is very very accommodating. Location - near tram but the neighborhood is all stairs and hills so be ready for some climbs if you’re walking . Good location though.

Property was all good. Just the hilly walk around.

The staff were exceptional - helpful and friendly - the location perfect. No hesitation in rating this hotel very highly

Breakfast was ok but hot food might have more variety

In the heart of the city, but quiet and private. The staff was outstanding and did everything in their power to make my stay perfect. I will for sure come again!

Excellent location! Zeynep, manager, was very helpful, attentive and friendly. I definitely highly recommend this hotel, clean, cozy and stylish.

It’s my fourth time in Istanbul and this time with Bankerhan was the best experience: super location (5mins walk to Galata towel and 3 mins walk to tram which give easy access to see the old town). We got the room upgraded with sea views and fully equipped with AC and all necessities. The local style breakfast was simple but delicious. Hotel stuffs are also very helping. I would for sure stay here again next time!

No really.
