Gul Otel is a great place to stay! Everything was as advertised: clean room, amazing breakfast buffet, arranged airport shuttle for your best convenience. The most important thing to mention, though, is their staff. They were friendly and helpful above and beyond! Would totally recommend this hotel!

Gul Hotel staff gave us excellent service. Hotel is centrally located close to public transport at 5 min walk. It is nearby all historic places and you can go by 15 -20 min walk as well. Breakfast is very good. It is a family run hotel and you will feel like home. I want to thank all gul hotel staff for taking care of us and especially giving love to Momin. See you again insha a Allah

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We booked Gül Hotel for our stay, but unfortunately our experience was very disappointing. When we arrived, we found that the hotel looked nothing like the photos shown online. The rooms were extremely small, and the bathroom and toilet were also very small. In addition, there was an unpleasant smell, and the room was not clean. Another major issue was the location. We did not feel safe in the neighborhood, especially as travelers. In our opinion, this area is not suitable for women or families. Because of these issues, we had to leave the hotel on the very first night and book another hotel in a much better and safer location. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and secure stay.

The hotel’s rooms are super small. We rented one for three people we hardly could fit. Besides the sheets of the beds were not super clean and we could find some long hair when we checked in. The blankets were thin and coarse and were not warming us enough. The neighborhood is very noisy and the windows do not block the noise. The only good thing about the hotel was nice staff.

移民の多い地域と聞いていましたが、特に問題無かったです。 Expediaの写真と正面入口が全然違うので行くと驚きます。Googleのストリートビューで前もって調べていたので、直ぐにたどり着けました。直線距離でホテルから100mほど（多分北側）行くと、道幅が広くレストランや雑貨店があり、ホテル前の雰囲気と全然違います。 T1のトラム駅に近いので、ブルーモスク、トプカピ宮殿にも便利。トラムの線路に沿って行けば、徒歩でも行けそうです。 子供連れの家族とかは泊まっていましたが、女性の1人旅は周りの雰囲気が嫌かも知れません。従業員の対応は問題無かったです。オートロックでは無いの、内側もキーを使って鍵を閉めました。 3泊しましたが、私は中国に長く住んでいたので、1日で慣れました。

CONFORT - PAS CHER - QUARTIER POPULAIRE

C'est la 2ème fois que je viens dans cet hôtel, car très satisfait la 1ère fois en famille. L'hôtel est en pleins quartier populaire Il y a des petites épiceries juste en bas et à - de 10min à pied du métro et du tram T1, on peux aller partout sur Istanbul. Métro M1a station Yenikapi ou tram T1 station AKSARAY Si vous être plusieurs je conseille la navette de l'hôtel pour ne pas se faire avoir et plus de confort (50€). L'hôtel à une petite façade discrète mais on est agréablement surpris du confort et de l'espace par rapport au quartier. Le petit déjeuner est bien et local avec du sucré et du salé. Pas besoin de manger le midi et cela permet un goûté l'après-midi typique sucré ou salé dans mon escapade touristique. Le personnel et le patron de l'hôtel est vraiment très bien et discret voir timide mais très serviable. Je vais 2 à 3 fois sur Istanbul par an depuis 14 ans et vous pouvez payer 3 fois plus cher pour moins bien. J'étais seul et ma chambre était faite tous les jours avec changement de serviettes. Le wifi cette fois était moyen bien mais cela dépend de la chambre, mais j'avais ma sim carte. Cependant tout n'est pas parfait ce n'est pas un hôtel de hyper luxe mais attention avec de belles prestations pour le prix. Il faut toujours avoir cela en tête. Pour ceux qui cherche la simplicité, le confort, un endroit stratégique et pas cher pour se loger avec une bonne literie et parcourir tout Istanbul facilement cet hôtel est pour vous.
