Anemon Galata Hotel

The hotel is very good and its location is truly exceptional and interesting, especially being right next to Galata Tower. I had a small issue with the room, as there was a slight unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom, and it needs some improvement in this regard. However, I would like to sincerely mention the elderly man and woman who were responsible for cleaning the rooms — they were extremely kind, friendly, and wonderful, which made a big positive difference to our stay. Breakfast was average in terms of variety, but the view was absolutely breathtaking. From one side, you can see many of Istanbul’s landmarks, and from the other side, Galata Tower stands tall and magnificent right next to the hotel — a truly unforgettable view. Regarding breakfast service, the tea service was quite exhausting for the lady who served it every day, as she had to refill it repeatedly. In my opinion, it would be much better if tea were available as part of the buffet so guests could serve themselves more comfortably. In the end, our stay was wonderful and we spent a very special time at this hotel. The room décor was beautiful and very elegant. I definitely recommend this experience to everyone, as the minor negatives are insignificant compared to the incredible location right next to Galata Tower.

Great stay overall, staff were very friendly and helpful. Easy check in and check out process. Room was relatively small, we had a twin single room and the beds were so close they were basically touching. The bedroom windows were not very soundproof so the ambient noise from Galata Tower was a bit loud until about 2am. The bathroom although looked clean had a pretty unpleasant smell but that was really the only downside of the whole stay. Lovely views from the roof top bar too. We stored our bags during the day after we checked out and had no problems.

We live in İstanbul and wanted spend weekend outside home and celebrate mothers day in a special place. This particular Anemon sort of failed the reputation of the brand. 1) If you sell a cigarette smokey room declare it as included in room service. It was intolerable. So we had to move out after the 1st night. 2) Outside is awfully crowded and noisy place as if it is not enough the cafe downstairs sound bombs the crowd with their speakers . It is pathetic and absolutely not classy. 3) the plates served in the mediocre to low level breakfast were wet I had to dry them myself. The plate surfaces are in such worn out situation that I wouldnt use them in my home and throw away. Not classy. So maybe we made a wrong choice. The hotel just benefits from the location but surely it is not fit for the Anemon brand.
