Pros:

We stayed at the Gulhane Corner Hotel in early June. We chose the hotel primarily for its location, and in that regard, it turned out to be absolutely perfect.
​Excellent transit accessibility: Sirkeci Marmaray station is literally a 1-2 minute walk away, and the Gülhane tram stop is just 2 minutes away. All the main sights are within walking distance: we could comfortably walk to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Basilica Cistern in about 8-12 minutes. Nearby is the beautiful Gülhane Park, be sure to look for the hidden free cistern there. To get to the airport, we took the T1 tram to Eminönü and then caught the Havaist shuttle. Keep in mind that taxis won't pull up directly to the hotel for short rides due to the tram tracks. ​Breakfast on the cozy terrace wasn't overly diverse, but it was homey and filling: olives, cheeses, eggs, French toast, and coffee. If you are used to eating mussels for breakfast at home, this won't be for you. The hotel staff is incredibly polite, friendly, and always ready to help.
​Breakfast starts at 8:30 AM. In our opinion, this is a bit late for summertime in Istanbul, as you would want to head out earlier before the intense heat sets in.
​The rooms are very bright during the day and clean. In the evening, the lighting is slightly dimmer. We didn't pay much attention to the furniture or curtains because, overall, the hotel is cozy and not crowded. Despite having 6 floors, it retains the warm, cozy atmosphere of a small boutique hotel

Cons:

maybe breakfast earlier
If "separate beds" to you means having at least 10 cm of space between them, then this might be a problem :) We had twin beds, but they were pushed tightly against each other. For us, this wasn't critical

Pros:

Останавливаюсь в этом отеле второй раз, очень удобное расположение, самый центр, метро рядом, рядом остановки от автобуса от аэропорта, удобная пересадка метро до Сабиха-Аэропорт. Приехали рано, заселили пораньше без доплаты. Номер большой и достаточно чистый. Завтрак стандартный, без изысков, все основное есть, кофе в кофе машине на завтраках. Отель не большой, но на 2 дней остановиться отлично. Если буду в Стамбуле остановлюсь еще раз.

Cons:

Нет такого

Thank you so much for your hospitality!
Pros:

This is a wonderful hotel and conveniently located – just a few minutes' walk from the metro, tram stop, and attractions. The room had a refrigerator, which was a nice touch. We had a large room with three windows. The staff at the hotel is wonderful. We were allowed to check in four hours early, which we were very grateful for. They helped us with all our questions – everyone was very friendly. The hotel has a beautiful terrace where breakfast is served – you can enjoy delicious Turkish tea there throughout the day.
We really liked this hotel – we recommend it to friends. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Pros:

Locatie,

Cons:

Het ontbijt viel erg tegen. Er was weinig variatie en de kwaliteit was niet goed. De keuzes waren beperkt en het aanbod kwam niet overeen met wat je normaal mag verwachten. Dit maakte de ervaring helaas teleurstellend. Hopelijk wordt hier in de toekomst meer aandacht aan besteed en verbeterd.
