How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
Where it is, and how far the landmarks are
Hotel Miniature Istanbul stands in Cagaloglu, Istanbul, at Alemdar Mahallesi Molla Fenari Sokak No 22. Its position is its strongest card: the Basilica Cistern is about 0.3 km away in a straight line, Hagia Sophia about 0.4 km, and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque and Hagia Irene each about 0.5 km. Topkapi Palace is about 0.8 km and the Suleymaniye Mosque about 1.2 km.
For arrivals and departures, Sirkeci railway station is about 0.6 km away. Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) is about 30.7 km from the hotel and Istanbul Airport (IST) about 34 km, both in a straight line. The hotel runs an airport shuttle for a fee, which spares you the question of how to cover that distance with luggage.
From a 15 m² economy double to an 18 m² deluxe double
The five room types range from compact to genuinely spacious. The Economy Double Room is the smallest at 15 m², with one queen bed and space for up to 3 guests; the Deluxe Double Room is close in layout, also with a queen bed and sleeping up to 3, but at 18 m².
For a special occasion or simply more space, it stands well apart from the rest of the range.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps |
|---|---|---|---|
| Economy Double Room | 15 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 |
| Deluxe Suite with Spa Bath | 50 m² | 1 super-king bed, 1 sofa bed | – |
| Deluxe Double Room | 18 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 |
| Luxury Double Room | 25 m² | 1 queen bed | – |
| Suite | 35 m² | 1 super-king bed, 1 sofa bed | – |
What is on site
The hotel has a restaurant and room service, so you are not dependent on finding somewhere to eat after a long day. A business center covers work needs, and parking is available for a fee.
An airport shuttle, paid, runs to and from the airports. Beyond that, the hotel offers the range of services a city traveller expects from a property of this kind, including concierge assistance, laundry and dry cleaning, and a tour desk if you want help arranging what to see.
Check-in, children, pets and parking
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00, a midday checkout that gives you a slower final morning than many hotels offer. Children are allowed, so families are welcome across the room types, including the family rooms. Pets are not allowed, so leave the dog at home. Parking is paid, which is worth knowing if you are driving in; the airport shuttle is also a paid service.
Who it suits, and who it should give pause
This hotel suits travellers whose trip is built around the old landmarks: with the Basilica Cistern, Hagia Sophia and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque all within about half a kilometre, the location does most of the work. Couples will be comfortable in any of the three double rooms, with the Luxury Double Room the pick if you want space without paying for a suite.
It suits less well anyone travelling with a pet, since pets are not allowed. Drivers should factor in paid parking. For everyone else, the combination of position, a restaurant, room service and a paid airport shuttle covers the practical side of a city stay.
