Introduction

Home away from home in Istanbul ; with many guests returning on a regular basis...

Location

Istanbul , a metropolis of 14 million people, is the only city in the world that stands astride two continents, divided by the narrow, 32-kilometer (20-mile) long Bosporus Strait , connecting the Mediterranean and Sea of Marmara to the south and the Black Sea to the north.

From its founding as Byzantium in 600 B.C., this strategically located city has been a focus of maritime trade and commerce as well as an outpost and threshold for cultural exchange.

Istanbul Hotel Sari Konak is ideally located in the district of Sultanahmet , the historic district of Istanbul, for those wishing to explore the old city. Being able to walk from the hotel to so many historical places makes your stay less fractious than in cities where transport is necessary for a day out.
