Property was in perfect location to see all of the tourist sites. It was quiet and clean, a wonderful breakfast also. We arrived much later than expected (after midnight) and they assisted us getting settled.

A HOME AT THE BLUE HOUSE
I stayed at The Blue House Hotel for 5 nights and it was the best hotel experience in a 20+ day through Turkey. Amazing staff (who do really go beyond their jobs), unmatchable location, and a breathtaking view from the rooftop restaurant. I will always stay here whenever I return to Istanbul.

The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, although, I feel sorry for the hotel owners - Sultanamet is outdated and the restaurants are way over-priced. Went for dinner in other areas like Karikov and Kardikoy most nights. Expect Turkish breakfast buffet. Explore other local areas for a more authentic experience. No aircon in winter months until early summer. We visited in late April and had to sleep with the windows open, which meant an early awakening to the noise on the streets and the call to prayer. Affordable accommodation but everything in the area is overpriced, including the tourist attractions.
