Hotel Petrol

Situated in the historical centre, the Petrol Hotel, Istanbul boasts both interesting origins and an impressive contemporary identity. This unique property was the first petrol-station of Sultanahmet (old city) in the 1950's and now operates as one of the city's foremost popular and affordable hotels. Overlooking the Blue Mosque and the Hippodrome, guests here will feel the magical embrace of Istanbul's charm around every corner. From upscale shops to downtown Hammam, this exotic and cosmopolitan destination has everything, all within easy reach. Welcome to an outstandingly-run hotel, where staff believe that professionalism and a personal approach go hand-in-hand. In fact, the rooftop terrace is the place to be on Saturday and Sunday mornings over breakfast, where classical and baroque guitar is often played by the hotel owner. Your hosts want you to feel completely at home, so don't hesitate to ask about Turkish baths, tours, tickets, laundry, baby sitting, car rental or just local tips for an authentic experience of Istanbul, old and new.
