The closest seaside hotel to Istanbul. To make the most of the sun, sea and sports, always with the option of a few town visits.
The Klassis Resort is situated by the sea of Marmara in Silivri, 1 hour by road from the centre of Istanbul (53 miles) and 45 minutes by taxi from the airport (37 miles).
The standard rooms are spacious (334 ft²). They have a very large bed (or two twin beds), a sofa, settee and desk. The balcony has wooden garden furniture. Aside from air conditioning there is also satellite television, a mini bar and telephone with direct international line. There is no safe in the rooms but the hotel provides one for the residents at the reception for free. The bathroom has a bath, bidet, toilet and hairdryer. Some rooms have just been renovated: do not hesitate to ask for one of them.
Built in 1989, the Klassis Resort is a large seaside complex with 304 rooms, 8 suites and 19 villas. It is an impressive building on 7 floors with 2 wings facing the sea. A large part of the central esplanade is occupied by a large freshwater pool (3,230 ft²). It is linked to the indoor pool which is heated in winter. The latter is equipped with slides, loungers and UV lamps. From there you can reach the Clarins Institute, a quality beauty centre which offers a range of treatments. Note that there is an ice rink in winter (open until May).
The Festus is the hotel's main restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner are served. You can choose either the menu or copious buffets at each meal. The food is Eastern and Western-inspired. In summer, the restaurant opens its two large terraces with a view of the sea or the gardens. For a change of scene, go to the Cedrus, an a la carte restaurant with excellent food and an international wine list. The Actium is the hotel's snack bar. You can have sandwiches, salads or grills. Do not forget the nice room service menu, 24 hours a day!
From the hotel you go down to the coast through pretty terraced gardens. A mini-space has been created, separating the seawater pool and the "beach". The beach is really just a tiny sandy bank which is better for beach volleyball than for lounging around. Close by there is a lawn with loungers and parasols. In summer you can go windsurfing or water-skiing. The Klassis Resort plans to buy jet ski and windsurf equipment.
9 miles from the Klassis Resort is the hotel complex entitled "Klassis Golf and Country Club", you can benefit from its sports facilities. Officially, you need to be a member, but you can always come to an arrangement by paying a supplement. Find out more once you are there.

A comfortable hotel located in the old town, just some minutes away by tram from the main tourist sites, with pool and a panoramic view over the sea of Marmara. A good hotel for the area.
This establishment really is too outdated to be able to appreciate its positive aspects, such as its restaurant terrace and its location in the very heart of the shopping district of Laleli.
It is a small and rather unimpressive hotel offering a pretty average level of service.
If you particularly want to stay in this area, we'd recommend you try the Grand Emin instead, which happens to be run by the same people.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Located close to the business quarter and the best bars and nightclubs in Istanbul, the Intercontinental Ceylan offers all the services of a top international hotel. A practical and comfortable place with no unpleasant surprises.
