Hotel Review: The Galata Istanbul Hotel, Istanbul

Having the buzz of the city on your doorstep, as soon as you step outside the entrance, is a priority factor for me when it comes to choosing accommodation. Particularly for a city break, a central location is often a deciding factor – MGallery can check this one off, being situated in the most bustling area of Istanbul – Karaköy.

Modern takes on traditional Turkish architecture can be found throughout the property; windows are adorned with mashrabiya-inspired wooden shutters and hamam-style marble bathrooms.
