Marmara University

Very nice hotel and I was in a large room. Staff helpful and the cleaning crew were very good. The bed and linen were comfortable. The hotel is one long block from the tram line and is surrounded by restaurants. Very quiet other than the calls to prayer., While breakfast was not MY style the other guest enjoyed it. I stayed a week and if I did not already have reservations at another hotel I would have stayed at the Blue Gilroy my entire three week stay in Istanbul. .

Clean, comfortable rooms with the most friendly and helpful reception staff. Spectacular views of the Blue Mosque from the breakfast room and terrace.
