Un sejur foarte plăcut, într-un hotel curat, confortabil, bine amplasat și cu personal foarte primitor.
Pros:

Locația este excelentă, aproape de principalele atracții turistice, într-o zonă liniștită în care m-am simțit mereu în siguranță. Camerele sunt confortabile, iar curățenia a fost impecabilă. Micul dejun a fost bogat, variat și foarte gustos. Personalul hotelului a fost extrem de primitor, mereu dornic să ajute și întotdeauna cu zâmbetul pe buze. Pentru mine a fost un sejur de 10/10. Când mă voi întoarce în acest oraș de poveste, Istanbul, cu siguranță voi alege din nou Grand Hotel Gülsoy și îl recomand cu toată încrederea.

Ok
Pros:

Good location. Comfortable and clean.

Cons:

Staff could have been a little more helpful. Rather ridiculous that I had to pay the airport taxi far in cash.

Positive impression
Pros:

- Excellent location. It is a 20–30-minute walk to Hagia Sophia and the historic city center.
- We chose a room with a mosque view, and it was definitely the best decision. The view was beautiful and added a special touch to our stay.
- A great restaurant on the 6th floor. It was very convenient to have such a nice dining option right in the hotel.
- Decent breakfast. I requested gluten-free bread, and the kitchen staff were very helpful and accommodated my request without any issues.
- Friendly and helpful staff. Everyone was welcoming and always happy to assist.

Cons:

The room could use some updating. Although it looked fine overall, we would have appreciated a fresher and more modern appearance.
The bathroom floor was not very clean.
The window was broken.
The double bed was made by pushing two single beds together, which was not particularly comfortable.

Pros:

Hotelli asukoht oli väga hea – kõik vajalik oli jalutuskäigu kaugusel. Läheduses olid ühistransport, restoranid ja poed ning enamik vaatamisväärsusi oli vähem kui 30-minutilise jalutuskäigu kaugusel või vaid paari ühistranspordipeatuse kaugusel.

Personal oli sõbralik, abivalmis ja tähelepanelik. Tuba oli avar ja puhas ning voodid mugavad. Hommikusöök oli täiesti korralik ja valik piisav.

Spa-osa ei olnud küll midagi erilist, kuid sobis hästi lühiajaliseks lõõgastumiseks pärast pikka päeva linnas. Kokkuvõttes jäime hotelliga rahule ning eriti hindasime head asukohta ja meeldivat teenindust.

Pros:

Mi-a placut ca am avut priveliste frumoasa, camera 503 cu fata la moschee, camera maricica, curatenia s-a facut zilnic, mic dejun bun, aveai ce alege dimineata, omleta si clatitele facute in fata noastra, branzeturile foarte bune, ceai, cafea nu am baut.Parcarea subterana este un mare plus, din acest motiv am si ales hotelul.

Cons:

A fost un pic departe de Bazar, mocheta era patata, paturile de o persoana cam inguste.Parcarea este cu plata 15 euro pe zi.
