Avicenna Hotel

Hotel Overview

Refurbished and re-opened in April 2008, the superior Avicenna Hotel is truly a delight. Not only does it offer a fantastic location in the heart of Old Sultanahmet (Istanbul's historic city centre), the Avicenna manages to combine Turkish influences with boutique-style individuality and contemporary amenities. This is a really nice hotel not only in styling but also comfort and location. Being located no more than 200 metres from the Blue Mosque, many of Istanbul's major historical and cultural sights are within easy reach of the Avicenna; must-see attractions including Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Gulhane Park and the Basilica Cistern are all within a few minutes' walk. Slightly further away, but still within walking distance, guests can easily reach the Grand Bazaar as well as the Spice Bazaar. Breakfast at the Avicenna is served buffet style; additionally, the hotel offers a welcoming yet intimate bar. Although the hotel does not have its own in-house restaurant, a whole array of various places to dine is literally around the corner from the hotel, and all serve excellent traditional Turkish cuisine.
