Located just 2 minutes walk from S Sophia, staff very nice and helpful, just some noise during the night due to pubs and restaurants

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.

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.

Excelent hotel highly recommended! Staff were always friendly and available 24 hours. I stayed for 5 nights location is great, surrounded by many restaurants and lots of nightlife. Perfect for young people who wants to go out but stay in a walkable area. I'd book it again next time

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.

Everything was just great!!e and my family liked the hotel. The front desk staff was really friendly and nice people! They helped us with everything including getting the ride to the airport. We got really nice shuttle bus! The hotel room was really comfortable and great! Really liked it! The area around was also great! Many good restaurants and shops. Many great sightseeing places are right there. Highly recommend!

10/10

The property managers were absolutely awesome. Both gentlemen treated us so kindly and attentively, constantly checking to see if there was anything we needed. The location was fantastic, just a very short stroll to the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque and surrounded by so many dining and shopping choices! We’ll be back!

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

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.
