Istanbul Hotels

Information from various sources regarding hotels in Istanbul

I would highly recommend Hotel Antique, which is just a short walk from the Blue Mosque. It's in a residential area just a few streets from an area with more hotels in it, so it's cheaper. I think I paid $25 per night in early June. It had air conditioning and free breakfast on a rooftop dining area with a nice view of the water and the Blue Mosque. The main guy who works at the front desk (maybe the owner?) is very friendly and helpful. I never did find a web site for this place. There are also a couple of very good kebab places nearby.

One caution: There are apparently several places in Istanbul called Hotel Antique, so if you find something on the web it's not likely to be the same place I'm talking about.

I stayed in the Hotel Nomade three years ago and it was delightful. Price was right, friendly, helpful staff, simple but adequate rooms, rooftop terrace for the breakfast that was included. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Also in Sultanhament area, near tram, Blue Mosque, restaurants, but on a quiet side street.

Enjoy the visit - Istanbul's a fascinating city!
