Meroddi Barnathan Hotel

設施：老舊，隔音差 環境：加拉塔附近，晚上很吵 服務：前台問借個蘋果充電線用一下，桌面明明有就是不借。最後一天晚上空調還壞了，沒任何補償

房間實在有點小，但是幾乎每間都可以看到加拉塔，頂樓的觀景露台是最吸引人的地方，晚上或者早餐時間都是絕佳觀景位置，讓我難忘，希望還有機會去入住分享給大家

Amazing historic hotel with an amazing view… Kind, respectful staff…Omer, Sedef, Ferdi, Nihal and all other teammates made our weekend unforgettable. Last but not least , live classical music concert during breakfast touched our hearts and souls.

Very nice location near Galata tower. Beautiful view from the roof top where breakfast is served. Only point is the noise insulation is not great. Street noise roof top noise. Target 2nd and 3rd floor. Breakfast could be better too

Nice places, perfect view for breakfast

First thing to get out of the way - do not believe the quoted room sizes! We booked a "Deluxe Room with Sea View - 291 sq ft" and were given one that was 12ft x 10 ft (so 120 sq ft?) including the bijou bathroom! There was barely enough space to squeeze around the "Queen Size bed" - which in this case meant 'small double' - 6ft long so my feet hung over the end. It was so small we resented the space taken by the tiny 18 inch wide wardrobe. We queried this with reception but were told that we had the room we booked. So if you are considering this hotel go for the Deluxe Kingsize (and expect a standard roomsize so you won't be disappointed). Also ignore the "sound proofed rooms" feature - unless that refers to the earplugs that they give you on arrival? We were on the 4th floor directly below the restaurant so there was a bit of noise from there as well of course from the morning call to prayer (unavoidable in central Istanbul). Apart from this the hotel was great (seriously we enjoyed it!). Breakfast on the roof was gorgeous: for both the views and the food. The service was excellent: all the staff were so friendly and helpful. Everything was spotlessly clean and good quality. The location was perfect - in the heart of Galata (the tower is 100m away) with fabulous bars and restaurants in easy walking distance - though the walk down the hill to the Galata bridge is steep but downhill and it's even steeper coming back! I would recomend this hotel but do book a kingsize room!

IF YOU ARE A FOREIGN TRAVELER, DO NOT BOOK HERE!!! IT IS A SCAM!!! I am from the USA and vacationed in Greece. I used Turkish Air and had a 15 hour layover in Istanbul, so I decided to do a layover tour of Istanbul to see the Hagia Sophia, etc. I chose this hotel for 3 reasons - 1) It was located by the Galata Tower that I also wanted to visit, 2) Because my flight would get into Istanbul at 11:30pm and I wanted to ensure there would be no problems with check-in at such a late hour, 3) They had lots of amazing reviews. Unfortunately when I arrived, the front desk initially told me that they did not have a reservation. After talking with *******'s customer service, they found my reservation. What had happened is that the hotel was fully booked. And even though I had made my reservation months in advance, the hotel gave away my reserved room and transferred my reservation to one of their other properties that they owned. According to the hotel, my new room was an "upgrade". I had paid extra to booked a nicer room (one with a guaranteed sea side view), but the room I received looked like I was staying at a hostel. You can see for yourself, the property they placed me in is the Meroddi Pera Flat. The hotel even had the audacity to charge me the full booking price! And I could do nothing about it because otherwise I would have no place to stay that night in Istanbul. The hotel totally took advantage that I was a foreign traveler to scam me! Do not book here!

I booked deluxe room but it was too small. There was not even enough floor space to put two medium suitcase. Bed was comfortable but could not sleep because of a lot of noise from restaurant and kitchen. Some days noise carried on until 01:00 morning. Staff are very friendly and helpful but if I could not sleep in piece, I don’t see point of booking this hotel for holiday

The hotel is fantastic, a beautiful building with a stunning rooftop view of the Galata Tower and Bosphorus water view. The incredible breakfast buffet can be eaten up there in the morning and for drinks and dinner. The area is right in the thick of the shops and restaurants, bars and a great location. We loved it. My only negative which sadly let down the amazing team at this hotel was the rooftop restaurant staff service for dinner. We booked for a special occasion dinner and they wouldn’t let us book an actual table as we were told first come first served. When we arrived we were seated at a less than desirable table and I asked to move to a table with a view when one became available. When one did I asked if we could move there and they said no, the table was reserved, and promptly moved a couple who’d just arrived, to the better table. There were many people up there just there for the view, one drink and no food. Some sat for more than an hour after finishing their drink which is poor table management. Priority should be for guests and for those dining. They need to allocate times for tables when busy. It just got worse after this as no one served us and we had to go up to get a menu and then to order our drink and then again to remind them when the order never came. This happened throughout the whole meal and ruined our special night. Worst service we have ever had anywhere. Great hotel though, loved it.
