Istanbul - Hotel recommendations - 3 nights
Discussion
We stayed at Adamar Hotel for a few days last October.
Hotel was fine and well placed allowing us to walk to all the historic sites. Lots of places to eat around the hotel and lots of shops to keep our daughter happy.
What we weren't prepared for was being accosted by every shop keeper and restaurant owner to visit their establishment. It becomes tiring very quickly having to fend them off.
That said, we had a great time time there.

Pera Palace hotel was great- superb historic building, lovely rooms, great service.
Best concierge service i've ever had. Organised meals, trips, transport etc.
Not cheap, but excellent. Some of the rooms have phenomenal city views over the Bhosphorus.

You're right about the restaurant owners and shop keepers though - I guess particularly at this time of the year when it's quiet! I did take a firm "No thanks" and walk right on approach rapidly!
