Great stay!
Great location. Friendly staff. Decent rooms. Super comfy beds! Restrooms are shared with just two or three other rooms, and they are cleaned daily & in good condition. Breakfast is good! Heads up— there are many flights of stairs depending on where your room is, but it’s not really an issue!

Good location, but staff were often absent so often not available to help with questions. Breakfast was nice, but started quite late and was in a rather small kitchen area. The room was nice with a large bed, but the duvet was too small for the bed.

Would recommend
Clean room, with interesting details, but with no view at all. Still, it was pleasant to stay with my wife and two small kids. Breakfast ok. Host helpful, English speaking. Bit hard to reach by car, you need to cruise couple inches away from restaurants tables and crowd, but parking lot close enough (charge 30 TL per day or better say half a day). Bunch of restaurants and cafes in the same street. Close to Galata bridge.

Good value for Central location
It is a budget accommodation with a central location. Five minutes walk to Galata, 3 minutes to tram station and just 2 minutes to a large tram station that brings you almost anywhere. The rooms and breakfast are quite basic though. Some rooms come without bathrooms so read carefully when booking. Cleanliness is moderate, provisions basic. But price and location is prime so depends on what you prioritize. We had a decently comfortable sleep, nothing to write home about other than that.

Thoroughly recommended
I was very pleased with my stay at this hotel. My expectations were exceeded. The hotel's décor was very trendy, in good condition and extremely clean. My room was lovely, although it was a little bit cold despite two duvets. I was thrilled to receive free branded slippers bottled water and Turkish delights in my room on arrival. The main member of staff was extremely welcoming and friendly which was very important to me because I was travelling solo. The hotel was in an excellent location close to the Karakoy ferry terminal and not far from Galata Tower and had a convenience store directly opposite. The breakfast that I received was beautiful and really set me up for the day. The breakfast room could be used at any time of the day and had a television fridge and kettle facilities. There was also free wifi in this area – I couldn’t manage to get this to work in my room. I have no complaints whatsoever and would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great time in Instanbul
My friends and I stayed here for 5 days while visiting Instanbul. We were looking for somewhere nice, good location, and affordable. Portus House met all our expectations! The staff was super helpful in helping with planning our activities and answering all the questions we had. We got the family connecting room which slept 5. There was 4 of us so it was perfect. We had a private bathroom and shower. There was free breakfast and tea everyday no matter what time you rolled downstairs. The location was very central to trams and the sites. The area is also in a very trendy area with bars and restaurants. I would stay here again! Great for groups!

I really felt like I'm at home :)
The service was great like in a real hotel and half the price in fact there was no difference from a hotel. The staff is very polite and will answer any question about the city. Rooms are cozy and bathroom/toilet really clean. There is free wi-fi and the breakfast was awesome. The location is in the hip area of Karaköy full with bars, shops and nice restaurants. Galata bridge is only 5 min walking and Hagia Sophia another 10min or 3 stops with the fast tram. If you want to try something different the ferry for the asian side of Istanbul departs basically in front of Portus House. If I go to Istanbul again I'd go to Portus I really felt like I'm at home.

short stay for wedding anniversary
Everything was perfect. We knew the location in Karakoy beforehand, it's perfect for our needs in Istanbul, close to everywhere (old town, taksim, ferry, tram, etc.), and with a reasonable parking garage closeby as well. The hotel is very small, staff is very friendly. I had sent a brief message beforehand telling that our stay was for our anniversary and they put a rose in our room and did some nice heart arrangements with the towels. Also upon arrival staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was really spacious, nicely set up, very clean, bed comfortable, bathroom fine - so all in all, the stay was perfect. Also price is very reasonable. Thanks again, specifically to Lutfi and Ali! Best wishes

A decent hotel, nothing special
The hotel was perfectly fine, but nothing special. When we arrived they couldn't find the booking for a while which was slightly disconcerting, but got it in the end. Our room had quite a lot of mosquitos buzzing around that kept us up, netting would've been helpful.
