"The decor is crisp and modern, and the views are definitely camera-worthy. Over this room broods the Tower, so close you could almost reach out and touch it. "

"An attractively renovated, century-old building so close to the 14th-century Galata Tower that you can almost reach out and touch it, the Anemon Galata provides plenty of old-world charm."

"This charming little inn is best known for the incredible profusion of antique lamps—4,000 at last count—that hang from the ceilings in the ornate, parlor-like lobby."

"Famous for its thousands of hanging glass lamps that even infiltrate the bedrooms, the Kybele, created out of a pair of townhouses, is a splash of colour both inside and out."
Lonely Planet
"The location near Aya Sofya is central, and the rooms, which feature cute marble bathrooms, are smallish but comfortable."
