How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
Where Golden Life GL sits
Golden Life GL is an apartment building at 20 Yusuf Aşkın Sokak, Istanbul, postcode 34122. It stands about 0.1 km in a straight line from both the Little Hagia Sophia and the Sokollu Mehmed Pasha I Mosque, and about 0.5 km from the Sultan Ahmed Mosque. Hagia Sophia is about 0.9 km away, also in a straight line.
Further out, Topkapı Palace and the Süleymaniye Mosque are each about 1.5 km away, and Sirkeci railway station about 1.3 km. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 30.7 km from the building; the hotel runs an airport shuttle for a fee.
From a 20 m² twin room to the 110 m² Apartment with Balcony
The six room types span a wide range. At the small end, the Deluxe Double or Twin Room is 20 m² with two twin beds and sleeps up to 3, which suits a couple or two friends sharing. The Deluxe Double Room (2 Adults + 1 Child) is 35 m², sleeps up to 3, has a city view and mixes two twin beds, two sofa beds and a double bed, so a family of two adults and one child fits without anyone on a spare mattress.
The Family Suite is 85 m² with a queen bed, two twin beds and a sofa bed, and a city view. The Three-Bedroom Apartment is 100 m² with five twin beds and a garden view. The largest of all, the Apartment with Balcony, is 110 m² with a queen bed, three twin beds and three sofa beds, and a garden view.
Between the family rooms and the largest apartments sits the Two-Bedroom Deluxe Apartment with Garden View: 50 m², three twin beds and a garden view, a middle option for a family or a small group.

The house rules
Golden Life GL suits families and groups above all. Children are allowed, the hotel offers family rooms so a party of four or more has real options rather than one cramped choice. The Apartment with Balcony and the Three-Bedroom Apartment, at 110 m² and 100 m², give a large group the most space.
A couple travelling light can take the 20 m² Deluxe Double or Twin Room, though the twin beds mean it is built for sharing rather than for a double-bed stay. Travellers with pets cannot stay: pets are not allowed.
Check-in from 14:00, check-out until 12:00
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00, which gives a standard midday rhythm to the day of arrival and departure.
Children are welcome at any age category the room allows, and the family rooms exist precisely for that. Pets, by contrast, are not allowed in any circumstance, so travellers with animals should look elsewhere.
