The Avicenna Hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of old-city Istanbul. All the major attractions are but a short stroll away, such as the world-famous Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and the Saint Sofia Museum.
The area around this city centre hotel is quiet and safe, a very privileged location in this ancient city.
The Avicenna is a 19th century traditional Ottoman style wooden house converted, richly restored and opened in 1990.
The staff at this hotel are very professional and highly-trained and providing a feeling of friendly efficiency without the big hotel personality.
There is a top floor restaurant called the Sipsiwhich has fantastic views over the Marmara Sea, or for breakfast take it out in the Avicenna garden in the fresh warm mornings.
