A clean, smart hotel for a city break in the heart of old Istanbul, within a leaf-fall of Gulhane Park.

 

Hand on heart, we can’t claim that the outside of the Prince Hotel Istanbul is pretty, but rather grey and square. Yet step inside, and you're in a smart, sophisticated lobby that reflects the international atmosphere of the Prince Hotel. From the sunny roof terrace with great views over the city, to the relaxing sauna, the Hotel Prince Istanbul aims to pamper you from top to toe during your stay.

Location: The Hotel Prince Istanbul is located on Kargili Sok, off Nobethane Caddesi, in the Sirkeci district. The Hotel Prince in Istanbul is 18kms from Ataturk airport, and within easy walking distance of Sirkeci railway station, and the ferry terminals at Eminonu.

 

Nearby Attractions: Sirkeci district is a fascinating place to explore on foot, with the absolute 'must-see' sights of old Istanbul less than five minutes' walk away from the Hotel Prince Istanbul. Walk past the Alay Pavilion into the calm of Gulhane Park, and discover the treasures of the Ottoman Empire at the impressive Topkapi Palace. Wander amongst the courtyards shaded by trees, pop into the old kitchens to view a glittering selection of silverware, or bask in the gleam of golden treasures housed in the Treasury. Just across from the park gate is the magnificent Byzantine church of Aya Sofya, with the minarets and domes of the Blue Mosque just a five-minute walk further on. On your way back to the Hotel Prince Istanbul, stop off and relax in the Cagaloglu Baths, a traditional Turkish hamam that dates from the 18th century, with separate bathing sections for men and women.

 
Facilities & Services: Start your day at the Prince Hotel with a buffet style breakfast in their dedicated breakfast room. In the evening, enjoy a relaxing pre-dinner aperitif in the lobby bar, or a gentle massage to soothe tired legs or shopping-laden arms! Then, choose from a range of menus (including vegetarian) in the Prince Hotel’s a la carte restaurant, serving both international and Turkish cuisine. After dinner, enjoy a game of snooker in the games room, or dance the night away at the hotel’s nighclub.

Business: The Hotel Prince Istanbul has four meeting rooms with a total capacity of 280 people, perfect for seminars, meetings or conferences involving breakout sessions.

 

Accommodation: Your smart, well-decorated room offers home from home comforts during your business trip or holiday in Istanbul. Stretch out and watch your satellite LCD tv with a nice cup of tea or coffee that you've made yourself (a service you'd expect to be in many hotels in Istanbul, but isn't!) Chill out with a drink from your personal minibar, before exploring the city by night. You can store your valuables in the room safe, and remember to bring your wifi devices to email home, as there's free wifi access in every room.
