The heat in the room for the duration of our stay was unbearable, I can understand that the time of the year allows for heating to be on but it would be good if each room is allowed to control the temperature according to how their room temperature is. . I wish I had brought my fan and I asked from the local shops to buy but there wasn’t any available in them.

2 day stay in Istanbul - June 2025

Upon arrival we were upgraded to a lovely room with a balcony and sea view. Great location minutes from Sultanahmet mosque, Aya Sofia mosque, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and tram stops (Sultanahmet & Çemberlitaş). All the staff were very helpful throughout our stay, especially Ahmet.

A Wonderful Stay in the Heart of Sultanahmet

We recently stayed at this lovely hotel and had a truly memorable experience. The location is absolutely perfect—tucked away just enough to offer peace and quiet, yet still within walking distance to many of Istanbul’s major attractions like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace. It’s a great balance for anyone wanting to explore the city without being right in the middle of the hustle and bustle. What truly made our stay exceptional was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Ahmed and Mubaasir at the reception. They were always welcoming and went above and beyond to assist us with anything we needed. Their professionalism and warmth really set the tone for our entire visit—they truly exemplify what great guest service is all about. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Mr. Saleh, during our stay. He was generous with his time and shared some fascinating stories and insights about the city and the hotel itself. It was a real highlight to connect with someone so passionate and knowledgeable. Overall, this hotel offers a perfect mix of location, comfort, and genuine hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Istanbul.

We spent 8 days at the Blue Gilroy and we have only good things to say. We had a spacious triple which looked out onto a courtyard and a beautiful orange tree with oranges just beyond our reach. The room was clean and comfortable with hardwood floors, a Turkish rug, and chandelier giving it a lot of charm. Most importantly, the bathroom was clean and updated, nice glass enclosed shower. Breakfast was simple but enough to get us going each day; fresh orange slices, hard boiled eggs, salads, and plenty of toasts and breads. The hotel is located just off the main street and it was convenient to walk to everything. We very easily figured out the metro, funicular, Maramaray and spent the week exploring the greater Istanbul area. The Blue Gilroy was safe annd quiet, and we never worried about walking around the area even late at night. The Blue Gilroy personnel were friendly and helpful. If you are going to spend a few days in Istanbul, make it at the Blue Gilroy. You will enjoy it.
