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.
In Sultanahmet, 0.3 km from Hagia Sophia
Star Hotel is a hotel in Sultanahmet, Istanbul, at Cankurtaran Mah. Akbiyik Cad. No 16. Hagia Sophia is about 0.3 km away in a straight line. The Sultan Ahmed Mosque, the Basilica Cistern and Hagia Irene are each about 0.4 km away, Topkapı Palace is about 0.8 km away, and the Süleymaniye Mosque is about 1.8 km away, all in a straight line.
Sirkeci railway station is about 1 km away, in a straight line. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 30.1 km away, in a straight line, and the hotel runs an airport shuttle for a fee.
From a 10 m² economy double to a 25 m² triple
There are three room types. The Economy Double Room is the smallest at 10 m², with one double bed, a city view and space for up to 3 guests. The Double Room is 15 m², also with one double bed and also sleeping up to 3, so the choice between the two is a choice of size. The Triple Room is the largest at 25 m², with one double bed and one twin bed, and it sleeps up to 4; it is the only room type with two beds.
For a couple, the Economy Double Room is the compact option and the Double Room the roomier one; the bed and the maximum of 3 guests are the same in both. At 10 m² the Economy Double Room is compact for its maximum of 3 guests, and the Double Room, at 15 m², gives the same party more space. The Triple Room's second bed and larger floor area suit a family with a child, or three or four adults sharing. Children are allowed, and the hotel offers family rooms, so the Triple Room is the natural family choice.
The Economy Double Room sleeps up to 3 guests. The Double Room sleeps up to 3 guests. The Triple Room sleeps up to 4 guests, so a party of five or more needs more than one room whatever the combination.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Economy Double Room | 10 m² | 1 double bed | up to 3 | city view |
| Triple Room | 25 m² | 1 twin bed, 1 double bed | up to 4 | – |
| Double Room | 15 m² | 1 double bed | up to 3 | – |
An airport shuttle for a fee and family rooms
The hotel runs an airport shuttle for a fee. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 30.1 km away in a straight line, and the shuttle is the hotel's answer to that distance. Family rooms are offered, and the Triple Room, with one double bed and one twin bed and a maximum of 4 guests, is the room type that fits a family.
Check-in from 13:00, check-out until 12:00
Check-in is from 13:00 and check-out is until 12:00, a midday departure that leaves the morning free. Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed. The hotel has no parking of its own, so a traveller arriving by car needs to arrange parking elsewhere.
Who it suits and who it does not
Star Hotel suits a traveller whose stay is built around the Sultanahmet sights, a family with children who want one room rather than two, and a small group of up to four sharing. It does not suit pet owners, since pets are not allowed; drivers who want parking at the hotel, since it has none; or a group that expects more than four in a single room, since no room type sleeps more than 4.
- Hagia Sophia is about 0.3 km away in a straight line; the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, the Basilica Cistern and Hagia Irene are about 0.4 km away each; Topkapı Palace is about 0.8 km away.
