“The Galata Hotel occupies a renovated Italian bank, giving it a character that Istanbul's larger hotels often lack. Its location, a short walk from the Galata Tower and the waterfront, is ideal for experiencing the city, and the hotel's thoughtful approach extends to its focus on sustainability. I particularly appreciate the combination of modern design with local touches.”
