Property Description |
|
"The Boutique Palace of the Old City." Reconstructed as a 19th Century Ottoman Mansion, the Best Western (Historical) Acropol Hotel Istanbul is a boutique hotel located in the center of Istanbul just a short walk from Sultanahmet Square, Topkapi Palace, and the Basilica Cistern. You can overlook the Sea of Marmara and see the Blue Mosque from the terrace cafe and most of the rooms. This deluxe hotel is 14 kilometers from the Istanbul Ataturk Airport. At the lobby, you will be impressed by the hand made ceiling ornamentations and the ceiling paintings made by professionals. These paintings relate to the concept of the ceiling ornamentation of Ottoman Architecture which had a vital significance in the tradition of architecture of the sixth century lasting Ottoman Empire. The Best Western (Historical) Acropol Hotel Istanbul was renovated in March 2004. The exterior appearance of the hotel is another unique example of the Ottoman Architecture. The Byzas Café-Patisserie offers a selection of coffee, salads and pastries. The Marmara roof restaurant will submit you another color of Istanbul while the evening falls onto this enigmatic city with overwhelming scenes of the Blue Mosque, St. Sophia and Bosphorus. All rooms have High-speed Internet connection (free of charge) with private bathroom, hairdryer, direct dial telephone system, satellite television, music, mini-bar, air-conditioning and 24-hour room service. The hotel staff will enhance your stay with their impeccable service.

Related Turkey Content
Turkey proudly sits astride two continents: a position that has given rise to a culture that reflects both East and West. It is a country where European aspirations sit comfortably alongside Asian traditions and the volatile atmosphere of the Middle East morphs seamlessly into the relaxed outlook of the Mediterranean world.
Turks have only lived here since medieval times when they arrived as land-hungry nomads from Central Asia. Before that it was Byzantine territory and Istanbul - then Constantinople - was the political center of a vast Christian
empire. Romans, Persians, Lycians and Phrygians were former occupants of the same territory, and earlier still, Hittite tribes had built an Anatolian empire before collapsing around the time of the Trojan Wars.
Such a rich history has left an indelible mark and Turkey abounds with historic sites and archaeological wonders set in a varied and beautiful landscape. The Mediterranean coastline is punctuated with well-preserved Greco-Roman cities such as Pergamom and Ephesus, while the austere and rugged Anatolian plateau has cave churches hidden away in the improbable fairytale landscape of Cappadocia. Istanbul, still very much the pulse of the nation, has even more to offer, with Roman aqueducts, Byzantine churches and Ottoman mosques and palaces.
With history at every turn, it is tempting to portray Turkey as a quaint, time-locked country that adheres to tradition but this is far from the truth. The modern republic's first leader, Kemal Atatürk, saw to it that Turkey was reinvented as a modern secular state following the demise of the Ottoman Empire. What you see today, thanks to Atatürk's comprehensive modernization, is a healthy combination of ancient tradition and contemporary outlook. This outlook sees little contradiction in having modern European ways tempered by Islam and time-honored traditions of hospitality.
Geography
Turkey borders the Black Sea and Georgia and Armenia to the northeast, Iran to the east, Iraq to the southeast, the Syrian Arab Republic and the Mediterranean to the south, the Aegean Sea to the west and Greece and Bulgaria to the northwest. Asia Minor (or Anatolia) accounts for 97% of the country’s area and forms a long, wide peninsula 1,650km (1,025 miles) from east to west and 650km (400 miles) from north to south. Two east-west mountain ranges, the Black Sea Mountains in the north and the Taurus in the south, enclose the central Anatolian plateau, but converge in a vast mountainous region in the far east of the country. It is here that the ancient Tigris and Euphrates rivers rise.
