The Hotel (guesthouse) itself is a "Does the job" hotel in that you will not be staying at the Ritz-Carlton but it has all the basic needs that you would want from a budget hotel and the rooms are to a modern standard, actually well above what you would expect for most budget stays. The staff were absolutely amazing. All of them. A particular thanks to Volcan who went above and beyond to help us upon check out. I won't state how as I don't want to set wrong expectations for other guests to expect the unexpected from him but, suffice to say, it was very much appreciated by us. Also his English speaking nephew was great at reception over the few days. The breakfast was lovely, once we figured out that the Menemen is absolutely delicious. Very typical Turkish breakfast plates complimented the 'main' and we were still learning about different combinations to try right up to our last morning thanks to staff tips (cheese and watermelon was a surprisingly delicious combo!) - as a family run business, it is clear that they take pride in their establishment and providing great customer care! The area itself is very busy and lively with restaurants. It is noisy outside but only until around 11pm most nights so it didn't affect our sleep. You are within walking distance to all the major 'Old Town' sites which is a massive bonus but it can be quite hilly (not the hotels fault) and taxis won't take rides without trying to rip you off (again, not the hotels problem) so you either need to walk or else a combination of walking and public transport to get to other areas of the city. Wifi good, shower good, bed good, no complaints on any of the 'need to be goods'. Overall, I would say it is not a suitable hotel for elderly/disabled people or those who expect 5 star quality but for everyone else I would MASSIVELY recommend and I would certainly stay there again! Don't think twice, just book!

We stayed at the Golden Sail Old City Hotel in Istanbul for a few days. Getting to the hotel was a challenge due to its location on narrow streets with limited access and restricted areas. However, despite this, the hotel is cozy, and the host is exceptionally friendly and helpful. While the rooms may not be spacious, they are perfect if you don't plan on spending much time inside. The rooms matched the pictures, and housekeeping cleaned them, with towels changed during our three-day stay. The host went the extra mile to assist us with parking, which was a plus. The hotel is conveniently located near the Bazaar and the main shopping street. Breakfast was good,served on time and fast giving you time to enjoy it as well. The staff was friendly, and, of course, there were adorable and playful cats around to add to the charm.

We had a fantastic stay at the Golden Sail Hotel Old City. Honestly, we didn't expect it to be this wonderful—but it truly exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped. Breakfast was a highlight each morning, offering a variety of delicious options that changed daily, providing us with full energy to start our day. The hotel's location is perfect—situated in a luxurious and very safe area, we felt completely at ease exploring both during the day and at night. Despite being centrally located, the hotel is remarkably calm and peaceful; we couldn't hear any noise at night, allowing us to rest well after long days of sightseeing. We felt genuinely welcomed and well-cared for throughout our stay.

It was the first time I travelled with a large group of people (7 in total), and the hotel staff did everything to meet our needs! They upgraded our rooms for free, so that we can all stay on one floor, they were so kind to arrange a dinner for us at night upon late arrival. The hotel was very clean, and the rooms were quite spacious. We travelled in February, the heating and hot water worked perfectly fine. We preordered breakfasts and dinners, which took away the hassle of finding a good restaurant. The meals was delicious, and there was a great variety of food (beware of the portions though - they are huge! 😁) The staff were simply exceptional! Thank you for the stay!

A small family hotel in a good location. The hotel is a 15-minute walk from the main center. The room was clean, cozy. The breakfast was delicious. The staff was nice, smiling, hospitable, helpful. They took very good care of us. They recommended their transfer that took us from the airport to the hotel. I definitely recommend their transfer service. A few days before arrival, they asked via messages if we needed to know anything. So they tried to communicate, which is a big plus. When we left in the morning, nicely wrapped toasts were waiting for us, which we ended up getting for free. 😊
