What a lovely, lovely duplex/apartment! The location is superb, the view breathtaking! All the amenities one needs are available- public transportation to pots and pans, elevators to air conditioning, the Galateia residence is ideal for travelers staying in the heart of Beyoglu, Istanbul. The staff went above & beyond their call of duty to make me feel comfortable and at home. I highly recommend staying here- whether for a weekend or a season, I am sure you will share my sentiments regarding the housing and the hosts! My memories of Istanbul begin with Galateia :)
