Right away, we were treated with respect and kindness, and given a glass of water after the long and hot journey from the airport. We stayed in a beautiful room with a lovely view of the water. The breakfast was delicious. We would gladly return.

It is a very nice butique hotel just few minutes walking distance to/from GalataTower. Area full with coffee shops and small restaurants. The area was very save and vibrant all day. Hotel is really nice, clean, and well equipped. We liked it very much. We had a bigger room 26/27 m2 with a view. The room is spacious enough for 2 people. Breakfast at the hotel was quite fine and enough to start you day with. The staff is super friendly, welcoming and willing to help. Thank you so much Fatih. It was very nice meeting you!! We can recommend this hotel and will stay here again in the future!

Value for money. Well placed close-by Galata and not far from the Sultan palace and all the ferry boats. The room was comfortable clean and well equiped. The hotel itself is small but nice and well maintained. Breakfast is ok, it maybe be better with little but is fair and the terrace where it is served is really nice

We had a great stay at The Gift. The rooms are exactly as pictured on Expedia, the staff were super friendly, the breakfast offered was good. The area itself is very nice, close to the ferries that can take you to many varied districts in Istanbul. We were there for six days and had a wonderful time.

Absolutely wonderful boutique hotel nestled right on the edge of Beyoglu. Everyone on staff present was respectful and polite. The property was well maintained and incredibly charming. One thing to keep in mind is they tend not to answer the phone, so if you book through Expedia the airport transfer may be difficult to schedule preemptively.

Excellent warm hospitality. The rooms are compact but modern and chic. My only complaint was the sound isolation between rooms and corridors. Breakfast is very good overlooking a seeworthy view across the golden horn. Hotel is located on a slightly steep road in case you walk there with luggage otherwise the metro is quite close.

Really nice hotel and great service and staff. Only problem was our room on the first floor was extremely loud at night as it’s facing the street. Was a pity as everything else was really great and we enjoyed everything else.
