The hotel is freshly renovated. The rooms are very nice, cozy and clean. You can barely hear your neighbors in other rooms and also we didn’t hear any noise from the street. We had a beautiful view over the city and sea. The breakfast area is amazing at the top floor with beautiful view over the city. The location is very good! Close to all city attractions. The stuff was very friendly and always ready to help.

I’ve been coming to Istanbul for over 15 years and it’s the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Location is super convenient, walking distance or short taxi / tram / boat ride to all sites. Breakfast is exceptional. Excellent olives, cheeses …. The view from the rooftop restaurant is one of the best in town. The staff was super helpful and attentive. Harun at reception and Serken bellboy took great care of us on check in day, they stored our bags, offered us tea and even sent a what’s app message once the room was ready. Serdar looked after us on check out date. Everyone was super helpful, booked the upstairs restaurant for us to have dinner on our last night and arranged transfer to the airport. We really needed it after 3 days waking around Istanbul

Galata Tower

Medieval Galata Tower pierces the clouds above Istanbul’s skyline, a soaring sentinel to the north of the Golden Horn. A replacement for a previous tower that was destroyed in the crusades, this one was built by the Genoese in 1348. or hundreds of years, it was the tallest building in Istanbul – and its uppermost balcony still offers unrivalled city views today.

    Another joke which is not even Turkish, as most of the monuments. Anyway. 35 euros just to inside the tower. If you want to use the lift you’ll pay 60 euros to enter. Told you these guys are born thieves! Amazing.

    It's good that they have installed a set of lifts to get to the top of the tower. So you are not walking up too many steps. Best to get there early or towards sunset to see spectacular views with the mosques and the sea across Istanbul.

    Definitely a must. Go in the early evening as the night lights are awesome. Museum Pass is a must - this is one of the places you can visit with it. I bought a 5 day pass for 700 TL at Topkapi Palace.

    I always thought that this is only a tower, you go up, see the landscape and that is all. I was totally wrong because there is a very nice and interactive museum inside the tower. I highly recommend it.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful – nothing was ever a problem. I really appreciated that they upgraded me to a better room upon arrival. The location was excellent; despite being close to Galata Tower, the hotel was situated on a quiet street. The view from the terrace was absolutely beautiful.

    The hotel deserves all its stars; it's modest but very conveniently located. We walked to Galata Tower and took a cheap taxi. There's also a walking path, and all the mosques are nearby. The staff here are very nice. They're always there to help if you need anything. They speak a little Russian. The sense of security in their small hotel is a plus. I think I'll come back here again if I ever come back to Istanbul. 🫶 I'm writing this review not because I was asked, but because this place truly has a soul.

    My stay at The Wolf Hotel in Istanbul was overall a pleasant experience and good value for money. The room was clean and well-maintained, though a bit small in size. The hotel’s location is excellent — just a 2-minute walk to the tram and about 10 minutes on foot to Galata Tower — and the surrounding neighborhood is lively, with plenty of cafes and restaurants to enjoy. The staff were professional, welcoming, and offered great customer service.

    New decorations with luxury items. The furniture was brand new and comfortable. The location is the best in Istanbul, it’s close to Galata tower 7 mins walk. Local facilities and shops like SOK and restaurants are very close to you there. The transportation of all kinds are around, specially the metro link and local buses. The hotel is in the heart of Istanbul attractions like Taksim, Eminönü and other areas, all of them can be reached easily by walking, depending on the destination you want to go.

    We loved our stay at this centrally located hotel in Istanbul! Just a short stroll to the iconic Galata Tower and an easy walk to the metro, it made exploring the city a breeze. While there’s no direct street access for vehicles, it’s only a short walk from drop-off points. The real highlight was the breakfast – exceptional quality, great variety, and something new to enjoy each morning. A perfect base for discovering Istanbul!

    Absolutely yes! Istanbul is open restaurant. In every corner you can find perfect meal. Good to try fish restaurant in Bosphorous, or in Çiçek Pasajı. And also good to try restaurants in Maiden or Galata Tower with perfect city view. What it can be better than that!
