What An Amazing Experience at Blue Gilroy
This was truly an amazing experience at the Blue Gilroy Hotel during August of 2024. The hotel Owner (Saleh), Mubashir, Ahmed and all the young ladies who cleaned our rooms and served us breakfast were warm, hospitable, and engaging while going above and beyond our expectations. My family loved how close the hotel was to the main Sultanahmet square, grocery stores and the Sultanahmet tram station. They have airport transfer service, laundry service, breakfast buffet and an outside garden with seating.The price for this fancy hotel was very worth it and we can't wait to return to Blue Gilroy during our next Istanbul trip!

This property is very-well located with eateries galore right outside this quaint boutique hotel. Main Street is a one-minute walk away and the sites abound in all directions. My room was spacious, clean and well-appointed. Unfortunately, the call-to-prayer sound tower was situated right outside my window (3rd floor) and the ritual is deafening....5 times a day starting at 5:30AM. By Western standards, the provided breakfast was tasty but lacked any fruit or egg options other than solf-boiled and/or sliced eggs. Chicken sausage was the sole breakfast-meal choice other than cold-cuts. If taking a taxi to this hotel, be prepared to be blocked-in by other vehicles in front of you and to the rear. I found the staff and owner to be ready to engage in conversation in English on several topics which made me feel like a person more than just a customer! Being disabled, my only serious concern/negative feedback is that of the steep down-sloping marble entrance/exit stairs that have no ramp. It was explained to me by the owner he has petitioned the Turkish-version of Historical Places for a ramp several times over the years only to be denied the ramp due to the building being of historical value/relevance. With that said, this property is not truly "handicap-accessible." Otherwise, I would gladly stay here again if my travels were to bring me back to Istanbul. All in all, I have no qualms in recommending this hotel to others!
