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 The Astra Hotel sits
The Astra Hotel is about 0.3 km from Süleymaniye Mosque, in a straight line. The New Mosque is about 0.8 km away, Galata Tower about 1.1 km and Sirkeci railway station about 1.2 km. Hagia Sophia, the Sultan Ahmed Mosque and Topkapı Palace are each about 1.8 to 1.9 km away.
Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 32 km away, in a straight line. The hotel runs an airport shuttle, for a fee.
From an 8 m² single to the 18 m² triple
The Single Room is the smallest and simplest: 8 m², one twin bed, sleeping one person. It suits a solo traveller who plans to be out all day rather than a couple, for whom it is not intended.
The three double rooms, Standard, Deluxe and Deluxe Double with Sea View, are all 12 m² with one queen bed and each sleeps up to 3. What separates them is the view: the Standard Double has no stated view, the Deluxe Double looks onto the garden, and the Deluxe Double with Sea View looks to the sea. A couple wanting more than just a bed should weigh the two Deluxe options.
The Standard Triple Room is the largest at 18 m², with one queen bed and one sofa bed and a garden view.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single Room | 8 m² | 1 twin bed | up to 1 | – |
| Standard Triple Room | 18 m² | 1 sofa bed, 1 queen bed | – | garden view |
| Deluxe Double Room | 12 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | garden view |
| Deluxe Double Room with Sea View | 12 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | sea view |
| Standard Double Room | 12 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | – |
What the hotel offers
The Astra is a hotel rather than a resort, and its offer is built around service rather than leisure facilities. Room service is there for meals in the room.
Parking at the hotel is paid, as is the airport shuttle. If you are arriving by car or flying into Sabiha Gökçen, both cost extra and are worth factoring in.
Check-in, children and pets
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00, which gives a standard midday rhythm to the day of arrival and departure.
Children are allowed, and with family rooms and a triple room with two bed types, the hotel works for a family with a child. Pets are not allowed, so a traveller with an animal needs a different hotel. Parking is paid.
Who it suits and who it does not
It suits a solo traveller, a couple or a small family who want a compact base close to Süleymaniye Mosque, with the other major sights of the area one to two kilometres away and a railway station about 1.2 km off. The choice of a garden view or a sea view at the same 12 m² size gives couples something to pick between.
It does not suit a traveller bringing a pet. The Single Room, at 8 m² with one twin bed, is for one person only and should not be booked for two.
