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.
About 0.3 km from Hagia Sophia in Sultanahmet
Hotel Peninsula stands on Akbuyuk Cad. Adliye Sokak in the Sultanahmet district of Istanbul, postcode 34122. Measured in a straight line, it sits about 0.3 km from Hagia Sophia, about 0.4 km from the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, about 0.4 km from the Basilica Cistern and about 0.4 km from Hagia Irene. Topkapı Palace is about 0.8 km away and Süleymaniye Mosque about 1.8 km.
For onward travel, Sirkeci railway station is about 1.1 km away. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 30 km from the hotel and Istanbul Airport (IST) about 34.7 km, both in a straight line.
From a 13 m² double to the 35 m² Deluxe Suite with Sea View
The rooms span a wide range. At the small end, the Small Double Room is 13 m² with one double bed and a garden view, and sleeps up to 3; the Economy Double Room is 14 m² with one double bed and also sleeps up to 3. At the large end, the Deluxe Suite with Sea View is 35 m² and combines one queen bed, one twin bed and two sofa beds, with a sea view. The Deluxe Studio Suite, Terrace, Sea View has one double bed and one twin bed, sleeps up to 4, and also looks out to sea.
Several rooms sit in the basement: the Family Room - Basement, at 20 m² with one double bed and two twin beds, is the largest of these and the natural pick for a family; the Twin Room - Basement has two twin beds in 15 m² and sleeps up to 3; the Single Room- Basement has one twin bed in 14 m² and sleeps one.
In short: couples have the Small, Economy and Standard doubles; friends or colleagues can share the twin rooms; families fit best in the Family Room - Basement or the Deluxe Studio Suite; and anyone who wants a sea view rather than a garden view has the two Deluxe suites.

A water park, family rooms and live music
What sets the hotel apart for its type and location is its water park, an unusual feature for a city hotel in this district, and it offers family rooms to match. Live music is part of what goes on here too. Together with children being allowed, this makes the property lean towards families and travellers who want on-site entertainment rather than a quiet, adults-only stay.
The hotel also provides a paid airport shuttle, useful given that both Istanbul airports are about 30 km or more away. There is no parking at the hotel, so anyone arriving by car will need to make other arrangements.
Check-in, check-out and house rules
Check-in runs from 14:00, with the latest check-in at 23:30; late arrivals after that time should be planned against this limit. Check-out is until 11:00. Children are allowed at the hotel. There is no parking on site.
Those planning to check in after 23:30 cannot do so.
