One of the most beautiful surviving Byzantine churches, with interiors laid out in fine mosaics and frescoes, has been converted into the impressive Kariye Museum.

This Istanbul City Center house of prayer is a good spot to kick off your day of sightseeing. There's plenty to experience in the vicinity, including Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace. Wander around at your leisure at Chora Church before making tracks to these other fine attractions.

What a fantastic property in an excellent location. Walking distance to major attractions and the tram, which is cheap to use! A lovely clean property and fantastic helpful, polite and professional staff. Great buffet breakfast! Would happily stay there again. Had a wonderful time made all the better because of the hotel stay and staff. Thank you Carina!

Staffs was great but this is not a 5 stars hotel more like a 3 stars hotel. It is great location with near by the mosque and foods in front of the hotels but all the restaurants serves the same one. Please eat the one next to the restaurants, it was probably the best one compare to other one.
