Great hospitality, and highly communicative staff, safe, convenient location and clean. Kurban made my stay easy and helped me get the most out of my short time there. He helped arrange all bookings, answered my questions and walked me around the area to help me get my bearings. The hotel rooftop has a great view and is a fun high vibrant space for fantastic food, a glass of wine and Shisha, and great DJ open to requests to make it all about the guests. I loved that. My room was clean with fully stocked toiletries, and my near proximity view of the Blue Mosque made it perfect. Finally, the breakfast each morning was nothing short of amazing. They had a wide selection of food and everything was fresh and tasted incredible!! if you are in Sultanahmet, I highly recommend this place. Great value for what you get.

The location is best part of the deal as it’s in a waking distance from the historical locations, multiple types of restaurants and bazaars. The front desk guys are very friendly and helpful in arranging the city tours and airport transport. However, the room was very small same as it the bathroom.

Excellent location within short walk of Sultan Ahmet mosque, Aya Sofia, Topkapı Palace, Basilica Cisterns and the tram. Walking to the Grand Bazaar was very doable. Well located and yet quiet and tucked away. Staff were wonderful and friendly. 24 hour concierge always ready to help. Room was pretty and clean with nice amenities (slippers, toothpaste, water, etc). I plan to return in a few months. I wish the breakfast started earlier than 8:00.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, although, I feel sorry for the hotel owners - Sultanamet is outdated and the restaurants are way over-priced.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.

Excellent location to historical sites. Very nice staff and helpful especially Mr Forat & Yousif. Not properly cleaned rooms, bedding sheets and bathrooms, outdated decorations and furnishings. Breakfast was reasonable but lacking labels and cold. You can hear noise from rooms above using bathrooms not properly sound insulated being fairly old hotel. The hotel rating is between 2-3 stars, it needs some attention and improvement to gain 3-4 stars.

My sisters and I stayed for 2 and a half days at the Blue House Hotel. We loved the service, the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, and the rooms had very cute and spacious feel to them. We personally loved the late night conversations we had on the terrace restaurant and the Turkish chai available to us in the nights on the patio. The location is also great with the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia a ten step walk away from the hotel doors. Close to the metro and other attractions as well. Special shout out to Fatih and Orhan for making our stay especially memorable. Would definitely recommend this hotel for your stay in Istanbul and don’t forget to say hi to the hotel kitty! :) Thanks Blue House! Can’t wait to visit again soon!
