The Wings Hotels Karakoy

My son and I were in Istanbul scouting locations for a photo/video tour and I chose this hotel mostly for its convenient location. Now, I can’t recommend this hotel enough! The staff are super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The location is fantastic! It’s right on the Bospherus Strait and walking distance from everything you’ll want to see and enjoy in Istanbul. Berkan was immediately attentive to all our needs and has great taste in movies, too. Miriam, the manager on duty for us, is both incredibly efficient and wonderful! And the cleaning staff kept our room immaculate even when we could be as organized with our things as we’d like because of our whirlwind schedule. They found a small bag I left behind and alerted the front desk before I could finish checking out! Now, I’m hoping to bring a group of photographers here next year and will gladly book the rooms here for all our participants.

Excellent hotel in a prime location! Hotel's modern decor was beautiful and the room was quite large, very clean and comfortable with lots of storage, mini fridge and safe. The bathroom was very high-end, spacious and had a rainfall shower which was very enjoyable! Breakfast served on the rooftop cafe offered beautiful water views. Staff were absolutely amazing and were very helpful! One of the best features of this hotel was the location! Steps away from the waterfront, ferries, Galata Bridge, plenty of restaurants in the area and about a 30-minute walk to Sultanahmet (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Grand Bazaar). This hotel is also a great choice for cruisers who want a pre or post cruise stay in Istanbul, because it's very close to Galataport. I would highly recommend this hotel!

Friendly staff, clean room, and great location near the Galatport.

Loved the hotel! Staff was very friendly and helpful! Room was very clean and view was excellent. Location is perfect for first time in Istanbul is you want to see the tourist sites but not stay right next to them.
