“Dara Old City Hotel hits a sweet spot; it's right in the thick of things near the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. I like the soundproofed rooms-a real plus in a bustling area, and that rooftop terrace seems the perfect spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. For a 3-star, it seems to deliver a solid, well-located experience.”
