Staff are fantastic, location is excellent. Room 204 overlooks an office building, that’s the only issue. Travellers in Istanbul need to watch for taxi scams too.

Charming Boutique Stay, But Not Luxury

We stayed in the Deluxe Suite at World House Boutique Hotel Galata. The room was clean, cute, and very spacious, though the online photos make it look more luxurious than it really is. When we arrived it was quite warm, but the air conditioning cooled it down quickly. The balcony was disappointing: it’s small and faces directly into an office building with people working late, so we had to keep the curtains closed. Instead of the city/garden view suggested, it overlooked the coffee shop below and the building’s stairs. The shower was nice, though the showerhead could have been cleaner. No robes were provided — not necessarily expected for a 3-star, but would have been a nice touch. The biggest plus is the location: right on a lively shopping street with restaurants nearby. Overall, a decent value for the price, but definitely more “charming boutique” than luxury.

An excellent find

A great find and very comfortable room. The staff are brilliant and couldn't do enough for us. The hotel is in an excellent location just around the corner from Galata Tower, so perfect for exploring Istanbul. World House comes strongly recommended.
