Opened in 2007, this beautifully converted 19th century building decorated in a fusion of Ottoman and contemporary style is already getting rave reviews from guests. The Sirkeci Konak Hotel in Istanbul is right next to the Topkapi Palace, and only a few minutes walk from most of the historic sites of the Old City, including Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque.
