Great location near some lovely eating places and close to the Galata bridge and lots of transport links. Staff not very helpful or friendly but we didn’t need them much. Breakfast was tasty but no options just the same thing each morning. Fine for a few days but by day 5 I was a bit bored! Breakfast staff at the sister “root” hotel were terrible smoking at the entrance to breakfast room, not providing clean cups etc. Rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. Overall a good stay but a few down sides. Great location and clean rooms. Poor staff and breakfast though tasty can get a bit repetitive

I had a great stay at SubHotel-- the staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast was really good, the room was clean and comfortable, and the location is great. Walking distance to the ferries, trams, and buses, as well as restaurants, cafes, and lots of historic attractions. Highly recommended if you're visiting Istanbul!
