Basilica Cistern

This cavernous space is the largest remaining Byzantine cistern in Istanbul. Constructed in the 6th century, it originally provided water filtration for the Great Palace of Constantinople, and continued to supply the Topkapi Palace from 1453 until the modern day. Opened to the public in 1987, you can now explore its atmospheric walkways and marvel at the intricacy of its decorative, water-worn columns.

    An excellent hotel located nearby to the main tourist sights (Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern) - took less than 10 minutes to walk! The hotel offers great rooms and facilities, including a gym and sauna. The staff at the hotel are super helpful and friendly - they are also more than happy to discuss recommendations on activities and where to go in the city! Overall, I would recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again when visiting Istanbul!

    The hotel is in the heart of Istanbul, located only a 8min walk to historical sites such as The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and the Basilica Cistern. It’s very charming and has a mix of Turkish classic design with a modern touch. It’s very clean and the staff are exceptional. They sorted the transport for us to and from the airport and helped with every request we had. The breakfast was varied and delicious! Thank you Ersari hotel for making this trip very special. We will definitely come back soon!
