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). 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.

Two room types, both 11 m²
The hotel has two room types, and both measure 11 m². The Double Room has one double bed, sleeps up to 2 and has a city view. The Single Room has one single bed and sleeps up to 1; no view is given for it.
The difference between them is the bed and the occupancy, not the size: 11 m² either way. The Double Room is the one for a couple, and the only one of the two with a stated view. The Single Room is for one traveller alone; its single bed and its sleeps-up-to-1 count leave no second person in it.
No room type sleeps more than two, so a group of three or more needs more than one room. Travellers who want space will not find it in either type, and travellers who want a second bed in the room will not find that either, since each type has exactly one bed.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Double Room | 11 m² | 1 double bed | up to 2 | city view |
| Single Room | 11 m² | 1 single bed | up to 1 | – |
A lift, room service, evening entertainment and a shuttle
The hotel has a lift, room service and evening entertainment, and it runs a shuttle service for a fee.
Check-in from 14:00, check-out until 12:00
The rules here narrow the guest list more than most hotels do: children are not allowed and pets are not allowed, which makes this an adults-only hotel in the strict sense. No child may stay in any room type.
- Check-in: from 14:00
- Check-out: until 12:00
- Children: not allowed
- Pets: not allowed
Who Mara Oldcity suits, and who it does not
For one traveller or a couple who want a compact room and nothing more, Mara Oldcity fits. Both room types are 11 m²; the Double Room sleeps up to 2 and has a city view, the Single Room sleeps up to 1. Sirkeci railway station is about 0.1 km away in a straight line, and the hotel has room service, evening entertainment, a lift and a paid shuttle service.
It does not suit families with children, who are not allowed; travellers with pets, who are not allowed; anyone who wants space in the room, since both types are 11 m²; and any group hoping to share one room, since no room type sleeps more than two. A traveller who wants a view has one option, the Double Room.
