The already existing but disapeared textures and elements were brought back after a careful renovation, modern implementations of interior elements, as well as infrastrucature, has been added carefully without any harm to the structure. The rooms and common areas of the hotel has been equiped with modern needs of a well equiped contemporary hotel for the needs of the guest.
Rooms Galata Hotel is situated on the historical and multi-cultural neighbourhood of Beyoğlu. Previously, two separate apartment buildings lacking their historical characters, the new owners of the building asked us to turn it into a boutique hotel with its historical appearance brought back. The two individual buildings we connected through a lobby while keeping the integrity of both building structure, they become a 16 rooms hotel showing its historical value that was hidden underneath years of negligence.
