Great location, everything close to what we wanted to see, blue mosque is on side. Hotel ‘ll improve the Breakfast everyday the same. Staff Great. I’ll Recommend travelers use yellow taxis with Taximeters and don’t use Taxis from the Airport to the Hotel with Hotel shuttles, you ‘ll pay $1000.00 liras more. Thank you

The terrace was spectacular and the food at the cafe there was very yummy. The only issue we had was upon arrival at the Galataport terminal we were expecting a transfer to the hotel. I had emailed the hotel months prior to make arrangements and get a quote and then after waiting 40 minutes hailed a quote which charged us 5x what we should've paid and didn't drop us in front of the hotel. We were told on artival they don't do transfers from the port, but i have emails that quote a price. On our morning of departure, after 2 confirmations, front desk called our transfer service to find out they hadn't sent anyone and it was a last minute rush to get out the door. Staff were friendly and apoligetic for the misunderstandings which were probably solely from language barriers. Room was clean. Hotel was half a block from the Blue Mosque!

A HOME AT THE BLUE HOUSE

I stayed at The Blue House Hotel for 5 nights and it was the best hotel experience in a 20+ day through Turkey. Amazing staff (who do really go beyond their jobs), unmatchable location, and a breathtaking view from the rooftop restaurant. I will always stay here whenever I return to Istanbul.

This was our second stay at the Blue House Hotel and you cannot ask for a better location in the Old City (Sultanhamet). The charming, traditional wooden house property is steps away from the Blue Mosque and has a rooftop terrace overlooking the famous site. Yasar, Vahap and Hakki were gracious and very helpful hosts during our stay. The included breakfast was a delicious mix of Western and Turkish cuisine! The Arasta Bazaar is literally right next door. It has a wonderful variety of souvenirs, local artwork, turkish delight, spices, rugs, jewelry, etc. that almost makes the Grand Bazaar and Spice Market skippable. What it doesn't have is the crowds of people! The Tree of Life ceramics store in front of the hotel is also worth a visit to see the amazing pottery and ceramic tiles for sale. A discount is provided for guests of the hotel.

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.
