Walking distance to the sights
The hotel publishes walking times from its door: Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia and the Basilica Cistern each about ten minutes on foot, the Archaeology Museum a little less, and the Grand Bazaar around a quarter of an hour. That makes it a practical base if you plan to see the Old City on foot after you arrive.
Taya Hatun Caddesi runs along the edge of Gülhane, close to the tram line. Cars can reach it, but the street is narrow, so the driver stops at the entrance only long enough to unload.
