The Bucoleon Palace
Hotel in Istanbul is
an exceptionally nice
boutique hotel on a quiet street in
the Küçük
Ayasofya neighborhood, very convenient
to Sultanahmet,
the Hippodrome, Blue
Mosque, Ayasofya, Topkapı
Palace, and
all of Istanbul's other important historic
sights (map).
Make
your reservation directly with the
hotel, tell them you've
come from TurkeyTravelPlanner.com and
you'll receive a room rate
discount, airport transfer, complimentary fruit
basket, bottle of wine,
and Turkish Delight! (Just
mention promotional code TTP
001.)
Furthermore, if you stay four
consecutive nights,
you get the fourth night free—but
only if you make your reservation directly
with the hotel (see below), and only
if you mention that you've come from TurkeyTravelPlanner.com.
(Note that rates and policies may
vary on and around the dates of major
events in the city, when all hotels
may be fully booked.)
What I like most about the Bucoleon
Palace Hotel is its understated
elegance in décor, and the
standard of personal service of the
experienced staff.
This is not a big or fancy hotel—certainly
not a palace—but a small (7
guest rooms and 5 junior suites) boutique
hotel with
personal service. (It's named for a
huge Byzantine palace
that once stood nearby.)
All of the
junior
suites and
the
rooftop terrace at
this quietly refined small hotel
on a good untrafficked street have views of
the Sea
of Marmara. One suite has a private
terrace, the others have balconies.
A few of the guest
rooms have views of the Blue
Mosque.
Décor is
high-quality understated elegance,
and the standard of service by the
staff pleasingly high.
There is an elevator/lift and all the
expected services: free Wifi Internet,
satellite TVs, private bathrooms, minibars,
direct-dial telephones, etc.
At the varied breakfast buffet,
included in the rates, filter
coffee is featured, as they've
discovered that's what most of their
guests prefer.
