I think of NABU as my home in Istanbul. The area is lively and so convenient to everyplace I want to go. I won’t try to mention all the staff name as I am uncertain of spelling but they are all great!

Our experience at Nabu was great, located in a perfect area to see the Galata Tower, the port promenade and much more on foot, a quiet area but with enough great places to dine and more. Totally recommended.

Nabu is a wonderful hotel - not too small, not too large! So convenient to everything - many restaurants and important tourist sites Next to Galataport, but also only 4 minutes to the most useful tram stop Just moments from the Golden Horn and Galata Bridge. I have visited Istanbul 9 times over last 20 years and will stay at Nabu whenever I next visit. The hotel staff are so friendly and helpful for any needs a guests might have.

Very convenient hotel to take tram or walk around the very nice karakoy and Galata port area. Definitely worth the price point and everything was well maintained. Just be aware that there are some club noises at night.

Staff are amazing, due to narrow street. One of the staff helped us with the luggage when we left. Coffee and tea was available throughout the day. Room was amazing and hotel was close to the trains. A little noise due to the closeness of all the restaurants surrounding the hotel. Would recommend and stay here again.

Very modern hotel with amazing and helpful staff. I also loved the area we were in, lots of bars and amazing restaurants. You are at the Galata tower in 15 minutes and on the Galata Bridge in 10 minutes. Room was clean and modern. Will definitely stay here again!

Terrific location, especially for boarding cruises at Galataport, and the property is well maintained and offered a very nice breakfast. The area is noisy at night, though, so not ideal for light sleepers.

Wonderful
This was my second stay in Istanbul - whilst the hotel isn’t brand new, it was everything we needed. I slept well every night. But the best thing is the location - we walked everywhere. The restaurants and cafes nearby are excellent. We loved the location so much, and spent a few hours just wandering the small streets and enjoying the food. Best area of Istanbul, and felt totally safe.
