Golden Hill Hotel Downtown  

In Istanbul, about 3 km from the city center. Steps from Topkapı—Ulubatlı, Chora Church and the Spice Bazaar, it's a handy base for exploring the old city.

Sophisticated but very comfortable, the hotel keeps things warm and simple. Rooms are warmly decorated and come with a TV; staff speak English and a concierge is available to help plan your days.

On-site restaurant, elevator and accessible facilities make stays easy. The hotel also offers concierge and press services, with elevator access to the upper floors for guests with mobility needs.

Stop by the hotel restaurant for meals on-site. For bold local flavors, the nearby Spice Bazaar puts authentic Turkish tastes within walking distance.
