Location Information

The Byzantium Hotel is located on Akbiyik Street within walking distance of such historical and major city sights as St. Sophia (Aya Sophia/Hagia Sophia), The Blue (Sultanhamet) Mosque, The Cistern Basilica (Yerebatan Cistern), Topkapi Palace, The Grand Bazaar (Kapalicarsi) and Misir Carsisi. Once described as the Way of Kings, Akbiyik Street is an ancient road used by empirical leaders as a route into the Old City and its palaces, divides the historical peninsula down the middle and leads guests directly from the hotel into the heart of Sultanahmet.

Istanbul is the only city in the world that lies between two continents. The old town provides a unique setting, as it is on the European side, with only a few hundred metres to the coast overlooking Asia Minor. You can enjoy an immediate surrounding of rich architecture, a skyline of mosques and minarets surrounded by coastal waters.

You can also cross the continental bridge to the new city, where Galata Tower for example provides great views from the top. Dolmabahce Palace and the vibrant Istiklal streets are also some of the new city’s main appeals.
