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.

We had a great, comfortable time at the Blue House hotel. The staff members were very helpful and friendly. Reshad helped us to organize things to do. The breakfast was great, especially the scrambled eggs with tomatoes. The location is fabulous, about one block from the park that joins the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. In this park is also a historic hammam. Even closer is a small bazaar with interesting shops. The area is hilly, so you have walk up or down to get to most nearby shops and restaurants.
