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 Ulubat Castle Hotel sits, and how far things are
The hotel stands in Istanbul, in the 34104 postcode area, at Mevlana Kapı Mahallesi, Kalburcu Mehmet Çeşmesi Sokak no. 12. The distances below are straight-line.
Chora Church is about 1.8 km away and Fatih Istanbul Mosque about 2 km. Further out, Süleymaniye Mosque is about 3.2 km, Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 4.5 km, Hagia Sophia about 4.6 km and Topkapı Palace about 4.9 km.

From a 12 m² single to a 25 m² family room sleeping five
The range runs from the Budget Single Room, a 12 m² room with one twin bed that sleeps one, up to the Standard Family Room which combines a twin bed, a double bed and a super-king bed and sleeps up to five. That bed count makes it the practical choice for a family travelling together, and children are allowed at the hotel.
Between those two sit several options at 15 to 20 m². The Deluxe Single Room has one twin bed and sleeps one in 15 m². The Standard Double Room, 16 m² with a double bed and sleeping up to three, is the one room with a city view. The Deluxe Room is larger at 20 m², also with a double bed and sleeping up to three. The Standard Twin Room has two twin beds in 16 m² and sleeps up to three.
Two triple rooms, the Standard Triple Room and the Deluxe Triple Room, each have three twin beds in 20 m². The Deluxe Family Suite, 20 m² with a twin bed and a double bed, sits between the double rooms and the Standard Family Room in size.

What the hotel offers, and for whom
Ulubat Castle Hotel is a hotel with family rooms, a lift and a paid airport shuttle. The family rooms and the children-allowed rule make it a fit for families. The paid airport shuttle covers the roughly 31.1 km to Istanbul Airport.
Solo travellers and pairs are also covered, with single, double, twin and triple room types in both standard and deluxe grades.
Check-in from 08:00, check-out until 14:00, no pets, no parking
The times here are unusual and worth noting. Check-in starts early, from 08:00, but the latest check-in is 12:00, a midday cut-off rather than an evening one; a traveller arriving in the afternoon or at night cannot check in after 12:00. Check-out runs until 14:00.
Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed. The hotel has no parking, so anyone driving to Istanbul should plan for parking elsewhere.
Who it suits, and who it does not
It suits families who want a single room for five, couples and solo travellers who need modest, straightforward rooms, and anyone who values an early 08:00 check-in after a night flight. The paid airport shuttle helps with the 31.1 km distance to Istanbul Airport.
It does not suit travellers with pets, or those arriving after 12:00, since latest check-in is at midday. Anyone relying on a car will find no parking at the hotel.
