I had the great pleasure of staying for two nights at the Sanasaryan Hotel in Istanbul. The hotel is in an historic building just minutes from the Galata Bridge, the New Mosque, and the ferry terminal. It is also an easy walk to many of the other famous sites in Old Istanbul. The hotel has been newly renovated from its prior existence as both a school and administrative offices and the outcome is one of entering a world of calm and beautifully appointed interiors. The rooms and bathrooms are large and also well appointed. In my room there was a sitting area with table and chairs, a large chest containing coffee, tea, and snacks. The beds are large and very comfortable. There is an excellent restaurant and a separate bar/library within the hotel. I cannot say enough about the staff. Both Isil Pinar, the front office manager, and Yagiz Dogan, guest service representative, went out of their way to ensure that I had a great experience at the hotel as well as in my exploration of the city. The hotel is a new member to Marriott’s Luxury Collection Hotel. Marriott should be very proud of this new member to the family.
