Positive: I stayed one week at Smart AND Simple Hotel Karakoy and had an outstanding experience. The hotel is in a perfect location: just steps away from Galataport and the lively main street of Karaköy’s nightlife area. You can walk to many of Istanbul’s most iconic landmarks, and there are tram, bus, and ferry stations very close to the property. There are also 24-hour supermarkets and service stations nearby, which is extremely convenient. The facilities are modern, cozy, and very clean. The rooms are spacious, with air conditioning and heating, a large bathroom, a safe, and everything is kept impeccably tidy. Soundproofing is excellent, ensuring a comfortable and quiet stay. The staff was truly exceptional. I would like to highlight Emre from reception, who was always attentive and ready to assist with anything I needed. Metin and Kayra also made me feel completely at home with their warm and professional service. I highly recommend Smart AND Simple Hotel Karakoy to anyone visiting Istanbul. My stay exceeded all expectations, and I would absolutely return.
Negative: all good
Summary: If I could give more stars, I absolutely would!
