Megara Hotel Istanbul is located in Sultanahmet down one of the most popular yet pleasantly quiet streets in the district near the grand entrance to Topkapi Palace. This street has many hostels and hotels with two wooden shack type bars serving the area. There are also many restaurants and some small corner shops so everything you need is here in this little traveller community. Also, it's away from the hustle and bustle of the heart of the old city, Taksim Square but at the same time just a short tram ride from all the action. All major sights of the historical peninsula are within walking distance of the hotel and it is very easy to stroll down the Sea of Marmara waterfront or sit and exchange adviced and tips with other travellers over a beer or a raki. It's the perfect resting spot for travellers when they return from a full day exploring this very diverse and fascinating city.
