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 Gul Hotel is, and how far the landmarks are
Gul Hotel stands at Talatpaşa Caddesi No 99, Ortabayır, in Istanbul's Kagıthane district, postcode 34410. Measured in a straight line, the city's landmarks sit between roughly 4.4 and 8.5 km from the hotel, and the airport about 29.8 km.
Dolmabahçe Palace is the closest landmark, followed by Taksim Square at about 4.9 km. Topkapı Palace, Süleymaniye Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Sultan Ahmed Mosque lie farther out, between about 7.5 and 8.5 km. Istanbul Airport is about 29.8 km away, and the hotel runs a paid airport shuttle for the journey.

From a 10 m² single to a 35 m² family room
Five room types run from 10 to 35 m², and every one of them has a city view. The city view comes with every room type, so the choice between them does not turn on the view; it turns on floor area, bed arrangement and the number of people each sleeps.
A single traveller has a purpose-built option: the Single Room, 10 m² with one twin bed, sleeping up to 1. Two people sharing choose between two rooms of the same 20 m², each sleeping up to 3. The Double or Twin Room has one double bed; the Standard Double or Twin Room has two twin beds. The floor area is identical, so the choice comes down to bed preference, and either room takes a third person.
Above that, the rooms grow with the party. The Triple Room is 25 m² with three twin beds and sleeps up to 4, one more than its name suggests. The Family Room is the largest at 35 m², with one queen bed and two twin beds, and sleeps up to 5. With children allowed at the hotel, it is the natural room for a family: parents take the queen bed, children the twins.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single Room | 10 m² | 1 twin bed | up to 1 | city view |
| Family Room | 35 m² | 2 twin beds, 1 queen bed | up to 5 | city view |
| Double or Twin Room | 20 m² | 1 double bed | up to 3 | city view |
| Standard Double or Twin Room | 20 m² | 2 twin beds | up to 3 | city view |
| Triple Room | 25 m² | 3 twin beds | up to 4 | city view |
A bar, room service and a paid airport shuttle
The hotel has a bar and offers room service, so a drink or a meal can be brought up to the room rather than sought outside. For a family, room service means an evening meal does not depend on taking children out. A lift serves the building, which matters on the upper floors and with heavy bags.
Family rooms are among the hotel's room types. The airport shuttle is paid, and it is the hotel's own link to Istanbul Airport, about 29.8 km away in a straight line.
Check-in, check-out, children, pets and parking
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is until 12:00, which sets the arrival and departure times to plan around. Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed, so a trip that includes one cannot stay here. The hotel has no parking, and anyone arriving by car will need to arrange it elsewhere.
Who the hotel suits, and who it does not
Most party sizes are covered. A solo traveller takes the Single Room; a couple takes either of the two 20 m² double and twin rooms. Friends sharing take the Standard Double or Twin Room, which sleeps up to 3. The 25 m² Triple Room sleeps up to 4 in three separate beds. A family of up to five fits the 35 m² Family Room, with children welcome throughout the hotel.
The hotel suits less well anyone travelling with a pet, which is not allowed, or anyone who needs parking, which the hotel does not have. Travellers who want to be close to the landmarks should weigh the straight-line distances: Dolmabahçe Palace, the closest, is about 4.4 km away, and Hagia Sophia and Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 8.1 and 8.5 km.
