Lalahan Hotel – A Favorite for Families in Istanbul
About the Hotel
Historic Boutique Hotel
Lalahan Hotel is a historic boutique property in Istanbul's Sirkeci neighborhood, housed in a building dating back to the 1880s. The Boyaci family, running it for three generations, has restored it to reflect Ottoman-era charm. Orientalist paintings line the staircases, and an interior garden offers a quiet retreat from the city.
