Hotel is located in a quiet place, away from main streets, but in the same time it's so close to Galata bridge, Galata Tower, old city, Karakoy streets, Galataport, tram station and more. The rooms were clean, simple but stylish. Loved the spacious breakfast area on the rooftop that had beautiful views. The breakfast offered a good variety of different dishes.

Our stay at Ferman Port Hotel Istanbul Karakoy was the best experience we could have imagined. The location is absolutely unbeatable—just steps away from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, which made exploring the historic centre incredibly convenient. The staff were warm, friendly, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The food at the on-site restaurant was delicious during breakfast, with a great variety of options that truly showcased Turkish cuisine. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and will definitely be returning to Ferman Port Hotel on our next trip to Istanbul. Special shout out to Mahmood who was always cheerful and extremely friendly. He helps us during our stay and carried heavy luggage for us to the airport transfer. Highly recommended!

The hotel was in a central location, with access to public transportation. It was close to the ferry, the new mosque, and the spice market. Most attractions were about a 30—to 40-minute walk from the hotel. The staff was great. Very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was terrific and the staff was excellent. The room was small, but it was clean and well kept. The staff helped me get a sim card for my phone, which cost $35 for 5 days. They also arranged a pick up at the airport, which was $60 for five people. We also took a taxi back to the airport for about $41. They also had a spa, where I had my first experience of a Turkish bath.

Very comfortable rooms, good location close to tram line. The staff were friendly and helpful. The manager very kindly swapped our rooms for no extra charge when we were unhappy with the size of one of them. Mohammed from reception even helped us to buy our tram card from the machine. Enjoyed the free water and beverage machine in the lounge. The view from the breakfast restaurant on the roof was absolutely stunning. This made up for us not having views from our rooms.

As our first time in Istanbul, we had no idea of what to expect. When we arrived at our hotel we were a bit concerned because of the alley we had to walk through. We soon found that the most amazing gem of a hotel. Rasul greeted us with a warm smile and cold water. Our room was large and clean with ample room for three adults. Breakfast on the rooftop each morning was excellent ;with much variety. The location is surrounded by many shops and restaurants. We found out on our last day that there is a second terrace which gives you a perfect spot for pictures of the water. Akin and his staff are amazing polite and courteous

Staff was very polite, helpful, and kind. Location was perfect. Close by to Galata Port Galata Tower metro station, very close to the other side of old town of Istanbul, just 4 stops by tram station from Sultanahmet. The hotel had a nice little terrace up the 4rth floor of the caffeteria or breakfast area that had the nicest view of Istanbul, really breath taking view and serenity. The hotel was cozy in its interior, and was quiet, hidden in the corner of Karakoy port. Very close by foot to a very live neighbourhood of bars and restaurant of fresh fish and turkish cuisine and sweets shops. Great location.

The hotel is beautiful—clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Breakfast is served on the 4th floor with a breathtaking view, which made for a perfect start to each day. We stayed in a Deluxe Triple Room, which was generously sized and included a cozy sitting area where we could relax and chat. What stood out the most, however, was the warm hospitality of the staff at the reception. A special thanks to Resul and Cem, who were exceptionally helpful and kind throughout our entire stay. We’ll definitely choose this hotel again the next time we’re in Istanbul!

It's a lovely boutique hotel, with special touches throughout, I even appreciated the toiletries provided (Peter Thomas Roth). The location was ideal, between most sites - not too close to Sultanahmet, which was crazy tourist busy. The team working was super helpful, and friendly, and because it's a boutique hotel you get to know some of the staff. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.
