Great location with easy access to the tram, ferries and plenty of local bars and restaurants. The surrounding streets are quite quiet at night. Breakfast and gym/spa are located at another hotel a few doors up the street. Room was compact and had a musty smell, but overall was fine. I appreciated the cool bluetooth speaker.

Die Lage ist hervorragend, die Zimmer modern eingerichtet. Einzig die Fenster sind nicht schalldicht genug, sodass man nachts des Öfteren geweckt wird. Zudem war das Warmwasser schmutzig-braun, daher lediglich die Nutzung von kaltem Wasser möglich, was beim Personal leider auf wenig Interesse stieß und mit einem schlichten „Lassen Sie das Wasser 5 Minuten laufen, dann wird es schon wieder sauber“ beantwortet wurde.

I had a great stay at SubHotel-- the staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast was really good, the room was clean and comfortable, and the location is great. Walking distance to the ferries, trams, and buses, as well as restaurants, cafes, and lots of historic attractions. Highly recommended if you're visiting Istanbul!

Quite a bohemian funky hotel which we loved, in the heart of Karakoy, handy for transport links and in walking distance of many of the major sites. Breakfast was in their sister hotel down the street but choice was rather limited. No fruit or fresh salad and nothing if you were vegan. The sister hotel had a spa but the prices were outrageously high. Overall a good hotel to stay in with friendly reception staff who went above and beyond to help.

Mörkt och trångt rum

Det var inte som vi såg på bilderna när vi bokade. Jag bokade med frukost ingår med det fanns inget frukt i samma hotell vi gick till hotellet i närheten och åt frukost. Det fanns inte mycket att välja på till frukosten, jätte lite utval. Totalt vi var inte nöjda med hotellet. Rummet var trångt och mörkt och badrummet var mycket gammalt och sängen är obekväm. Jag rekommenderar inte hotell för att det var inte värt pengarna.
