Star Hotel
The 3-star boutique-style Star Hotel Istanbul, situated nearly 25 minutes on foot from the Galata Bridge, is furnished with wooden floors and has a patio and a library on site. This Istanbul hotel lies in Sirkeci, which is one of the few living eyewithnesses to these old days, 2.7 km from such cultural sights as Istanbul Riverside Museum of Modern Art.
The hotel is approximately 800 metres from the ancient Column of Constantine and just moments from the 4th-century Byzantine Hagia Irene Church Museum. Standing a mere 6 minutes' stroll from the great Hagia Sophia Museum, the Star Istanbul is around a 10-minute drive from the Storied 16th-century Suleymaniye Ottoman Mosque. Guests might as well visit Halberdiers Courtyard, which is only 0.7 km away. Feel in total harmony with nature by visiting Miniaturk Miniature Park, about a 15-minute ride from the accommodation. Star Hotel is located just around the corner from Sirkeci train station, while Akbiyik bus stop is just 300 metres away.
The air-conditioned rooms comprise an adjoining terrace and a balcony, and offer free wireless internet and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels along with a mini-bar, coffee and tea making facilities. Offering amenities such as hair dryers and bath sheets, the bathrooms also feature a roll-in shower, a separate toilet, and a sink. The rooms of the Star overlook the city.
There is a fitness room on site.
Drinks are available at the lounge bar. Guests can enjoy meals of Mediterranean cuisine at Seven Hills Restaurant, situated within 5 minutes' walk of this Istanbul hotel.
