Istanbul has many 3 star hotels which are great for the more budget conscious traveller who does not need the extra facilities usually found in the 4 and 5 star hotels in Istanbul.

 

Rather than being basic and uninspiring, many of the 3 star hotels in Istanbul are modern, clean and appealing and there are literally hundreds available around the city.

 

 

What Makes a 3 Star Hotel in Istanbul?

 

Affordable – The adage that you get what you pay for doesn’t always ring true! Here in Istanbul you generally get more than what you paid for! 3 star hotels in Istanbul are very affordable, especially when compared to what you would pay for a room in hotels of the same quality in other large cities around the world.

 

Everything You Need – 3 star hotels in Istanbul may be more basic in terms of the facilities they offer, but in reality if you’re coming to Istanbul to see the city, do you really need a fitness centre? These hotels offer all the facilities you need, both in-room and the public hotel facilities, to ensure that you have an enjoyable stay. The Ilkay Hotel in Sirkeci, for example, offers en-suite bathrooms, hair dryer and television in all rooms as well as a modern bar and café, and a restaurant which serves breakfast to the guests.

 

Good Locations – With so many 3 star hotels in Istanbul to choose from you are bound to be able to find one in a great location. These hotels are generally close by to the attractions and you’re never far away from public transport so you can easily get to other parts of the city too.

 

Good Service – Because 3 star hotels in Istanbul tend to be smaller hotels than the 4 and 5 star hotels you often get a slightly more personal service. The staff get to know you if you’re staying for several nights or more, making the whole experience that much more personal – this can sometimes be lost in larger hotels. 3 star hotels are often considered to be much more friendly places to stay!
