Dirty room and black mold in the bathroom. Very loud music from the mosque every morning at 6am, since this hotel is right next to it. The photos does not match the actual hotel, 2-star hotel at max.

The Ada Karakoy was a nice clean place to stay. It is conveniently located near public transportation. The rooms are generously sized and clean. The concierge were very helpful, honest and friendly. I would definitely stay there again, and recommend to others

Wonderful property close to transportation - bus, trams, ferry, etc. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Staff was wonderful - so helpful and friendly. Offered great ideas around the area. Would definitely recommend to anyone

8/10

The Hotel is welcoming and offers very good, no frills accommodation. No bar or breakfast options but close to many establishments so you are spoilt for choice. The bedding and towels were excellent. Would have rated higher but our fridge didn't work, neither did the bathroom extractor and the window was hard to close. Despite the central location, close to the waterfront in Karakoy, it was very quiet. Daily housekeeping even over a public holiday. Helpful reception staff who made recommendations when asked and sorted our airport taxi. Would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is in the center of the Asian part of Istanbul and is close to everything. In contrast to some big brand hotels which are professional but kind of intimidating. The staff has excellent service to make you feel like you live in a family hotel. This is the best part I enjoy about this hotel.

Customer service was excellent, room was very small but area that the hotel is in was really good, close to the water and tram station, so it was easy to get around. Masjid right beside the hotel, so I could hear the athan in the morning which was really nice. Ask the front desk for any reccomendations for shopping! Thanks for a great stay!

Great Location! close to all attarctions nice restaurants on bosphorus, the galata port and Galata tower. walkable distance to most of tourists attractions. Hope on hope off bus at 1min walk from hotel. Nice room size with central AC/Heating clean and nice staff. The only thing I did not like is you can hear ppl in corridors and water loudly when neighbors are showring! Good price/quality ratio, I would stay there again! thanks

It was Okay

6/10

Overall, I would describe this hotel as “functional”. Clean, simple, and close to Eminonu for easy walking. Rooms are small, even for a “deluxe”. Only issue was shower not draining at all… had to take quick 60 second showers. If you’re looking for a quiet and reasonable hotel that is close to everything, then this should serve you well.

I had a lovely stay at Ada Hotel. The room was very clean, had everything I required. It was also very assessable to the areas I wanted to explore. The staff were lovely. I really enjoyed the company of Sener and had many a conversation about life, what was going on in the world, general chit chat. He also provided me with lovely things to do locally (museums, restaurants etc). He really made my stay most enjoyable. I would have no problem recommending this hotel to anyone. It's was perfect for what I was looking for. Thank you Victoria

I recently spent a week at the Ada Karakoy Hotel. It felt like home, I really loved my room which was decent size, queen bed, clean, coffee and tea making facilities and complimentary water. The staff are super helpful and friendly and organised my hotel/airport transfers. It was especially handy being able to communicate via WhatsApp with the hotel manager ahead of my arrival to Istanbul. The staff also assisted with booking appointments and tours. It is located in a small laneway but positioned within minutes from Karokoy wharf which is lined with many restaurants and street snacks. I will definitely be back next year.

Lovely hotel with super comfortable bed and helpful staff. They really go the extra mile to make sure we felt welcome, even surprising me with a birthday cake in the room. It was so kind that it left me speechless. The receptionists are so polite and friendly. One of them even lent us his transport card after the machine swallowed our last Turkish lira bills. The area surrounding the hotel, I dare say, is one of the coolest in town, with narrow streets full of charming bars and restaurants. It’s also a short walk from the main attractions on the other side of the bridge. Great in all senses!!!

Matress was very bad, the closet smelled strong moisture. The room is very tiny. Friendliness of the staff varied immensely depending on the person.

The front desk Reception people were friendly and helpful and always available. I also liked the location close to the sea and the restaurants. Didn't like: rooms way too small and whole property did not match the website photos. Staff struggled with mechanical and electrical issues. TV had no channels in English.
