Anemon Galata Hotel

The only thing I liked was the view from the roof terrace.

The beds and pillows were extremely uncomfortable. The staff wasn't very helpful. The hotel is on a hill so every time you go back you have to climb. The breakfest wasn't really that good.

The location was nice. The guy who took care of our bags was really nice and the cleaning ladies, even we didn't understood them, they tried and smiled :-)

Our room was so small, with a really small bathroom, that even a normal person gets claustrophobic. Our bathroom also had some mold, but when you compare other hotels in Istanbul it's nothing. The stuff working in the restaurant/breakfast was very unfriendly. You can save the breakfast and eat somewhere else since the choices are .. well .. limited, unless your too lazy. Almost all stuff spoke poorly English, even the fisherman on the bridge spoke better English.

Some of the stafff were excellent but many were quite sullen with a poor grasp of English.Room was a good size with a great veiw over the Golden Horn.It was nice and quiet. Breakfast was plentiful but nothing special Lovely views from dining room.

Good location for siteseeing in the city and restaurants in Beyoglu. The view from our room and the restaurant was superb. The staff were very heplful and friendly.

Our room (406) was very small, but others looked adequate.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the view from the restaurant is stunning. The location is excellent. Mr Abdullah Cem was very helpful in assisting with a number of bookings. Service was delivered with a smile and with enthusiasm.

The transport to and from the airport was expensive, and at 70 eur in each direction I would expect a better quality of transport, and greater convenience. On arrival we could not find the driver as he was not waiting at the meeting point. Lack of air conditioning in the car was also quite unpleasant.
