The hotel and its location
Hotel Sultania is a boutique hotel in the Hocapaşa quarter of Sirkeci, on Istanbul's historic peninsula in Fatih. Topkapı Palace and Hagia Sophia Square are a short walk away, and the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar are only a few minutes further on foot. Close neighbours on the same streets include Empire Palace Hotel & Spa, Romance Istanbul Hotel and Black Tulip Hotel.
The lanes of Hocapaşa are narrow and partly pedestrianised, so your driver stops at the nearest point a car can reach and helps you with your luggage for the last stretch to Hotel Sultania. The private transfer runs door to door from Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gökçen, and the driver waits in arrivals with a name sign.
