A modern hotel decorated in palatial style, with its own rooftop pool, bowling alley and nightclub.

 

The Grand Hotel Gulsoy is a four star hotel that has style and panache, from the striking geometric steps into the gleaming lobby, to the in-house bowling alley! Shopaholics will love the location of this Istanbul hotel, with designer shops on Ordu Cadassi and the wonders of the Grand Bazaar just a five-minute walk from the Grand Hotel Gulsoy's front door.

 

Location: The Grand Hotel Gulsoy is on Sehzadebasi Cadi, just across from the Prince's Mosque park and on a major bus route into old Istanbul. The Grand Hotel Gulsoy is 15kms from Ataturk airport, 100 metres from Aksaray metro stop and 150 metres from the University tram stop.

 

Nearby Attractions: The Grand Hotel Gulsoy is within easy walking distance of some of the fascinating sights of Istanbul. The 'must see' Blue Mosque, Aya Sofya church and exotic Topkapi Palace are just a short tram ride away down Ordu Caddesi, a great way to reach these famous sights without getting hot and bothered. Hotels in Istanbul in this area have wonderful places to see within yards of their front doors too! Take time to stroll up to the Prince's mosque, built in 1548, and where women come to the tomb of Helvaci Baba every Friday to pray for help finding either a husband or accommodation.

 

Facilities & Services: There is so much on offer at the Grand Hotel Gulsoy, you might never need to actually explore Istanbul at all! Start your day with a delicious open buffet breakfast  - and remember to reserve your table for dinner in the restaurant later that night. Then, work off those calories in the hotel's well-equipped fitness centre, or have your hair done by the resident hairdresser. Make time for a midmorning coffee and cake at the Grand Hotel Gulsoy's own patisserie, or a dip in either the inside swimming pool or the impressive rooftop pool. Or, just soak up the sunshine on the roof and admire the view. Before dinner, why not relax in the sauna, or challenge the family to a game of pool or bowls in the Games Saloon. Finally, dance the night away in the Mask Club disco with a cocktail in hand.

 

Accommodation: Whether you choose a single, double or suite at the Grand Hotel Gulsoy, you'll enjoy a touch of Turkish style and elegance in the decor. Every room at this comfortable Istanbul hotel is fully air conditioned with double glazed windows, for a quiet and cool night's sleep. Surf the Internet via the free wireless and cable internet connection, or treat yourself to a late-night drink from the minibar. All rooms have private bathrooms with plenty of hot water 24 hours a day (not always available in even the best hotels in Istanbul), and your room will be kept spotlessly clean with a daily housekeeping service.
