Location

The Amber Hotel is an old Ottoman house transformed into a nice small, special class hotel. The hotel is located in the Old Town, in an area called Kumkapi, the palace of the fish village, and is really close to Sultanhamet. The hotel is within five minutes walk of the Blue mosque, Grand Bazaar and all other main attractions in the old city. The modern area, with the centre in Taksim, is only a few kilometres away and is easily reached with a short taxi ride. The hotel has just went into a deep renovation and now is maybe one of the best hotels in the area.
