INTRODUCTION
For several months this year, I found myself in Istanbul on business, holed up in a hotel on the Asia side of the city deep in the suburbs. This gave me the opportunity to get to know a lot of things about the hotel, as well as the time to make some observations. There is quite a long travel segment at the end of this review, but if you ever find yourself here you?ll understand why!
BUSINESS HOTELTITANICTitanic is a hotel chain in Istanbul, with other hotels dotted around various locations in the city. This hotel is located some 20km from the historic centre of the Europe side, and on the other side of the water on the Asia side. It?s a very new hotel, having opened for business in June 2008, and looks quite incongruous in the immediate area, which looks a little tatty and is under development, with many ...
Advantages: Great location, very good customer service and food in restaurants good Disadvantages: rooms a little dark and we had no view , could not flush toilet paper in the toilet
shaves and interesting lane choices but we arrived in one piece.
Apart from the speed and the traffic the thing I noticed was the wonderful display of spring flowers along the roadside all the way from the Airport into the city. They were truly stunning, a variety of colours in blocks of reds, pinks, yellows and so on.

Advantages: So many wonderful sights, clean and easy to get around, reasonable prices Disadvantages: Smoking in some places put us off our meals
Istanbul sightseeing.
This is a review of my experience and really there is so much to see and do you need to read a few of the great reviews on this site, as I did before we went in order to make your own mind up as to what you want to experience for yourself. There is no way I could go into depth about every sight, I have tried to create a desire to go and a taste of what is there.
WHEN WE WERE IN ISTANBUL:
We spent five days in Istanbul just before Easter 2009 and we stayed at the Orient Express Hotel in the Sirkeci area of old Istanbul. (Another separate review)
Istanbul is the only city built on two continents and split by the sea. The Bosporus is the section of water which unites the two continents and joins the Sea of Marmara to the Black sea.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
The first thing that struck me as we drove from the Airport to ...
