Located in the Sirkeci district, the Centrum hotel is on the corner of two small streets and a 5-minute walk from the train station (2,297 ft). It is best to use this mode of transport to save time and explore the whole city. The Grand Bazaar is 2,297 ft away, the St. Sophia Basilica and the Topkapi Palace 656 ft away and the Blue Mosque 984 ft away. You can also take a taxi, which is cheap, although this option is less practical due to traffic jams.

This modest hotel has the advantage of being close to the centre of Istanbul. It is also located near Gülhane Park and the Galata Bridge, where groups of fishermen supply the restaurants below.
It is an establishment that will suit those who do not have high expectations and are just looking for budget accommodation for their stay in Istanbul.
This is not a luxury hotel. Its location is perfect for discovering the town (on foot or by taking a tram or taxi).
Maybe choose to have lunch and/or dinner away from the hotel, as the food services here are limited, without forgetting the bar, which isn't very attractive.
Located in Istanbul's business and tourist district, this is a decent hotel with no particular appeal but which does offer pleasant living areas, such as the brand new wellness area.
A set of four buildings from the 20s, the Merit Antique is a hotel full of history. It is also the most charming and comfortable place in the Laleli district, in the old town, a few tram stops from Sultanahmet.
The Yasmak Sultan is a nice hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet. In summer there is a beautiful panoramic terrace with a great view of Topkapi, the Saint-Sophie Mosque, and the Bosphorus.
A cosy hotel close to the main tourist areas of the old town. A nice pied-a-terre in the heart of Sultanahmet.

The guest rooms are all different, perfectly characterising the destination and making this place ideal for honeymooning couples and design aficionados alike.
Keep this in mind.
As its name indicates, the Sumahan on the Water is a little world on the water. Inside, it displays a balance of lines and shapes that create a modern style and is never cold. This is a bit of a surprise given the exterior aspect of the building, which management wanted to keep as nondescript as possible.
This effort to go unnoticed speaks of the attention afforded to the guests, in terms of welcome, service, and cuisine. The Sumahan blends luxury and attention to detail together with know-how, efficiency, good taste, and quality.
It also commands one of the finest views of the Bosphorus there is. It really is in a league of its own.
This is a prestigious hotel offering the services of large European hotels combined with oriental charm. The setting is incredibly romantic, making the Ciragan Palace an ideal location for any honeymoon and all types of celebration. It is undoubtedly one of the best hotels in Istanbul.
The Four Seasons is indisputably the most charming place in Istanbul. Nothing is left to chance in this old restored prison: neither decor, nor service. An excellent place to enjoy top-class service in the heart of one of the most beautiful historical sites in the old town.
Like the phoenix, the Çiragan Palade has risen from the ashes to produce a high-ranking and very charming hotel. An exceptional location by the Bosphorus in order to stay in the same place where sultans lived.
This luxury hotel is of a very good standing. This hotel is made for those seeking excellent comfort as well as numerous and impeccable services. Its only downside is the distant location.
An elegant, quality international hotel for business people and holidaymakers. Great food too.
The Hotel Hilton in Istanbul offers all the standard comfort of large business hotels, but this place is also suitable for tourists and anyone who wants high-quality services. It is rare in Istanbul to find a hotel with a large landscaped garden.
