Location Location Location, everything is near by. Only one disadvantage, since it’s in the tourist area all eatery places are expensive and food quality is so average that it gives you jitters.

Excellent hotel & staff, good quality price!

The hotel and the room are very clean and comfortable. Very well located, a short walk to Aya Sofia and the blue mosque. The staff are very friendly, specially Mr Ahmet at reception, very polite and helpful, gave me good places to visit and where to eat at very reasonable prices. Happy to stay again for next trips.

I had a brief stay (one night), but I'd recommend this highly. Close to everything I wanted to see. It's on a street with many restaurants and shops so you will be duly entertained. The room was clean, sharply appointed, and all that I needed.

Very helpful and friendly staff, great central location, just a quick walk to transport, Blue Mosque, Haggia Sofia etc. Restaurants and supermarkets a few steps away. Nice new bathroom, clean and tidy. I was a bit worried before booking as there was a few comments about noise from the street/bars, but it didnt disturbed my sleep (i was low floor facing the street). Would stay again.

Excellent service! The staff is amazing. The hotel is located conveniently close to major tourist atractions, such as Hagia Sophia, and the Blue Mosque. Many dining options and pick up for tours is highly available. Sometimes the restaurants or pubs within the same street can get loud. But in our case there was only one noisy night but ended relatively quick. In general its a great place, very clean, and friendly.

We loved the place. It was very clean and good mattress. The shower was great and a lot bigger than the one we had in other places we stayed. It is so close to the two famous mosques and the basilica cisterna and anything else so it is a great spot to explore. You are in the heart of it all. It does get a bit noisy at night as it’s at the end of a busy bar street but the price does reflect this in our opinion. I slept through most of it and ear plugs did wonders. We would stay again for sure. Overall great place for the price we paid.

Gul Sultan has an awesome location. 10 min walk to the main attractions. The staff are warm and helpfull, especially Sherhan. The property is wel maintained and looks recently renovated. It is a small quaint place. The rooms are a bIt tight but very clean. Bahroom also was very clean. The property sits on a main thoroughfare with lots of restaurants, cafes and pubs... which makes the area quite busy.... but I think that's practically all over Istanbul Would I stay here again? Yes, I would

The rooms were very clean and had been renovated a year or so ago. The staff were excellent and very helpful. There is no elevator so be prepared for a couple of flights of stairs. We felt very comfortable and would definitely go back! The street is one way and narrow so there was often a lot of tour buses lined up as they dropped tourists headinf to Top Kapi, Hagua Sophia, etc. The great thing is the hotel is very easy walking to all of those sights, and to the tram which we took a number of times. Highly recommend ordering an Istanbul Karte as you will need that for trams, buses, ferries, and toilets! You can use one karte per group.
