ブルー ハウス ホテル

Check in went smooth, but for the price we paid, we would get 2 single beds, since the last queen bed room available was their premium room. I paid for the upgrade and glad I did. Can’t beat the location of the hotel. Place was clean. However, due to central location, the place is a bit noisy from the street. The live music & whirling dervish show will go till midnight, dogs will bark after the music stops, and then the call for prayer will awaken you just as you nodded off. None of this is the fault of the hotel, but it is a reality. Bedding is a bit out dated and they could use an additional electrical outlet for charging devices, but other than that I would stay there again. Also, day time staff spoke good English, however night shift does not, nor did the wait staff on the roof top restaurant. View was great on the roof, but food was mediocre at best. Also, room phone to call front desk either does not work, or it needs instructions next to the phone. Can not contact front desk with room phone.

My family and I truly enjoyed our stay at the Blue House Hotel. The hotel is a beacon of history and is located a stone's throw from the Blue Mosque. The location is prime for Sultanahmet with numerous sights within a 5 minute walk. The rooftop view is magical. The breakfast is delectable and ample. We sat in the garden under the shade of the Blue Mosque every morning of our stay. The staff is also very kind. We did not get the family room as we booked, but the staff made sure to apologize for the mistake and we were upgraded to sea view rooms. Additionally, we had a 3:30am departure on the last night of our stay and the hotel staff made sure that we had breakfast plates prior to leaving. We were very impressed by this small but meaningful touch. I highly recommend a stay here! Keep in mind however that the rooms and bathrooms are very small, though probably standard for the Sultanahmet area of Istanbul.

We first visited the Blue House in the nineties. It hasn’t really changed that much. It’s not expensive for what you get and the rooftop terrace gives stunning views over the Blue Mosque and Sultanahmet. You can also see Haghia Sophia. Some of the rooms are really quite small but perhaps all you need for a short stay. It’s definitely in a quiet and central area for the historic sites. There is a faded element to the hotel; you feel some money could be spent upon it. The service is generally good but a little unstructured perhaps. Breakfast is a comprehensive buffet with Turkish dishes too.

Great hotel! The location couldn't be better. Service was excellent. Terrace restaurant was convenient as well. Nice view of the Blue Mosque and water right out our window. Shower was small, but a small price to pay for such a great location.

Amazing location for the price. Only a 2 minute walk to the Blue Mosque area. About 5 minutes to the metro and restaurants. We had a view of the Blue Mosque to the right and the Bosphorus straight to the left. The bathrooms are small, but the location and view made up for it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Even though we were right in the middle of things, the hotel was very quiet and peaceful.
