Apricot Hotel, Sultanahmet, Istanbul

Istanbul's Apricot Hotel is just what thrifty travelers are looking for: clean, central, cheerful, friendly, quiet and value priced accommodation.

Located just three minutes' stroll downhill from the Blue Mosque and the Hippodrome, the Apricot is on quiet Amiral Tafdil Sokak opposite the Hotel Avicenna.

Mr Hakan Kocatürk, the owner-manager, has recently moved the hotel to this building from one on a neighboring street.

Alll of the six guest rooms have private bathrooms, and several have combination baths with European-style shower and Turkish-style hamam splash baths, which are lots of fun: you can take a Turkish-style splash bath right in the comfort of your hotel room.

The four rooms on the west side of the hotel have balconies and views of the Blue Mosque. The two on the east side have a separate sitting area with a couch that converts to a bed, so the room can sleep up to four people.
