About
Hotel Nova
Hotel Nova sits on Rihtim Caddesi, a short walk from the ferry terminal that links Istanbul's Asian and European shores. It's a small property—just 8 rooms—so the feel is more guesthouse than grand hotel, with a garden and terrace for quiet moments between outings.
Rooms come with air conditioning, heating, and tea and coffee facilities. Some Deluxe Rooms add a balcony and garden view. The hotel keeps things simple: no smoking on site, no pets, and a 24-hour reception for late arrivals.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Very small property—only 8 rooms — The intimate scale means fewer on-site facilities and limited room variety; it may not suit those expecting a full-service resort.
- Value rating lags other categories — Guests rate the value at 6/10, suggesting that the price—from $77—may feel steep for what's offered, especially given the small size.
- No pets allowed — Travelers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the hotel has a strict no-pets policy.
- Check-in window is 14:00–23:59 — If you arrive outside these hours, you may need to coordinate with the 24-hour reception, but the formal window limits flexibility for early check-ins.
