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.

    While the tower is great vantage point, overlooking the entire Golden Horn, the admission tickets are quite expensive and the place is crammed with crowds. If you decide to visit anyway, aim for the 30min before sunset

    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.

    The location was excellent. Close to the Galata tower, great restaurants, shops and nearby trams to access the old town. In a quiet street with fabulous views over the Bosphorus. The room was very clean and comfortable with a powerful shower. The staff are the best. So friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast had a good variety of food, all freshly prepared. I really recommend this small boutique type hotel. We had a fabulous time

    The staff were amazing! So friendly and helpful. The roof terrace was a highlight of our trip. We bought refreshments and snacks (at the hotel's suggestion) and enjoyed a beautiful view of the city every evening. We went to a different rooftop restaurant during our trip and honestly the view from the hotel was better. The location is great - short walk to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern and Topkapi Palace. It was also close to a tram station so we could easily get over to the Galata Tower side.

    The location was very near to Isticlal, Galata tower, Galataport. Also near there is a fruit shop, not so far there is a supermarket. Also near there is the tramstop, so it’s easy to reach the old centre. From the dock Kabatash is easy to reach the Prince islands. In the apartment there was everything for preparing food, the staff was helpful, kind and also tried to solve all requests. In the apartment every day cleaning was carried out.

    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!
