Transport Links

You’re not restricted to Nişantaşı for your entertainment though because the metro is within walking distance and it’s a short ride to Taksim for more nightlife, bars and restaurants than you’ll know what to do with! This makes this part of Istanbul popular with business travellers too as the business heart of the city is not too far away. This is also a good alternative if you want to stay in an Istanbul hotel which is a little less commercialized than neighbouring areas.

Situated about half an hours drive from the airport is another reason why these Istanbul hotels are popular, and with many offering a free airport shuttle there’s even more reason to stay in this part of the city.

 

High-Class Hotels

As would be expected in one of Istanbul’s most chic and expensive areas, hotels here are generally high class.

If you’re looking for a luxury boutique hotel in Istanbul you’ll find plenty of those here. The hotels may be small but they certainly don’t skimp on facilities to make your stay an enjoyable and memorable one and offer a more personal service than some of the larger ‘chain’ hotels.

Many of the boutique hotels in Istanbul are rated as ‘special class’ or special category, though you will also find some 4 and 5 star hotels around here too. Whichever class of hotel you prefer, you can expect to pay more in this area.
