Orient Express Sirkeci Hotel - Istanbul

This brand new hotel opened only in late 1999 and offers excellent value for money in this ideal location. Guests can also take advantage of the small swimming pool located in the basement; a unique feature in this area of the city.

The Orient Express Sirkeci Hotel was formerly known as the Orient Express Hotel Istanbul.

The bedrooms vary in size from medium to large, all benefiting from brand new furniture and decoration. A variety of tasteful colour schemes have been used. The bathrooms are fitted in light marble and are also in excellent condition.

The main restaurant is in the basement and serves a wide variety of local and international cuisine of an excellent standard.

The medium sized lobby is very attractively decorated in traditional Turkish style with some ornamental art. To the rear of the lobby is a bar which was constructed to resemble a carriage from the traditional 'Orient Express' train.

This is a traditional Ottoman style building in keeping with the surrounding houses. Thoughtfully restored, the hotel was formerly a private residence.
