Hotels in Istanbul – From contemporary to traditional
Hotels in Istanbul come in all flavours. Istanbul, a bit like that dinky little singer Prince, was formally called something else. At one point it was called Byzantium. Later, Constantinople. And there’ve been others in between. Why? Because over the ages Turkey has been home to a succession of major civilisations some of whom have come to blows. A bit like Berwick on Tweed; part of Scotland then nicked by England only to be taken back by Scotland again and so on. But Istanbul is much more exotic than Berwick and a lot warmer. Smart hotels in Istanbul include contemporary boutique hotel The Bentley Hotel Istanbul, on Harbiye and Nisantasi within easy pottering distance of swathes of restaurants, bars, night clubs and shops.
Istanbul Hotels – Take a walking tour of the city

Soak yourself in Istanbul’s atmosphere and take in the city’s heritage and culture with a professional licensed tour guide and get a flavour of the real Turkey. We couldn’t mention hotels in Istanbul without talking about the Taksim Gonen Hotel, a first class place on Taksim Square, close to all the major attractions including art galleries, the opera house and numerous theatres, cafes and bars.
Hotels in Istanbul – A city that spans two continents

Partly because, uniquely in the world, it is a city that has a foot in two continents.
