Galata’s Hotel is situated in Karaköy, a vital location for Istanbul’s vibrant art scene. Upon arrival, the visitors are invited to experience what may be the most exciting feature of the building; a panoramic elevator and a fluid staircase, which pierces through the hotel’s 7 floors gallery space, with a unique form appearing between each floor. Though, the relatively big void is meant to serve a much zestful purpose, and that is to be used as a vertical art gallery. Galata’s Hotel’s 4 floors-high guest corridors are designed to offer a contemporary gallery space for various modern artists’ work. As well as natural sunlight the from the glass ceiling, the artificial lighting was also curated in a meticulous, museum like fashion to let the visitors experience the artworks both day and night. The sculpture-like staircase piercing through the building acts almost as an exposed spine, and enables the user to view the entire exhibition in one climb. Galata’s Hotel is in walking distance to the central locations such as Galata Tower, Şişhane, Eminönü, Taksim Square, Spice Bazaar, Grand Bazaar, Istanbul Modern, tramway and subway stations. It is 44 km to Istanbul Airport (approximately 42 min. by car), 45 km to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (approximate 43 min. by car)
