I was hoping somebody will help me finding cheap Hotel near Ataturk Intenational.
I am going to India via Istanbul in Octomber, going out is no problem, as I have just over 2 hrs to change planes, but comming back is different story.
I am back on 30th at 730 am , but my connection do not leave Ataturk till next morning on the 31st at 6.20am
Hence I need clean & cheap room for 24 hrs. I am traveling with my 13 yr old. We will be tired & jet lagged, but will have time to do quick tour of Istanbul. I know the town pritty well & speak the lingo , so it wont be problem gtting on the metro & heading down town.
I tought to get hotel in Sultan Ahmet neighborhood of town, but that is still some way away from the airport, and I do not want to get taxi at 3am for the Airport. Somewere local is preffered.
I found few hotels within the Airport but cheapest room I could find was €270
for dubble.That is little bit than I want to pay.
Does somebody know about good B&B or pansion near the Airport??
Many thanks

Glad for you! Don't forget that breakfast starts at 6:30am, so you might want to take it on your arrival day. The hotel has free hourly shuttle bus to the airport, ur flight is early maybe u can arrange that with them the night before. Also they have a free shuttle service to the centre, i think in Taksim 3X a day, so you can have a daytour of the city. See Istanbul in one day, go to Galata Bridge and look for the Turyol boat trips, the ferry of Turyol will cruise around near the shores of the Bosphorous straits and you'll be able to see lots of interesting sights of Istanbul (fortress, castles, old mansions, mosques, etc.) in 1.5 hours at YTL7.50 - a steal for people with only a day to spare! Check my istanbul pages for things to do in 1 day.

Have fun.
I am a Macedonain Turk. from Vilayet of Manastir, Sanjack of Serfice, Kaza of Kozana, village of Sofular. Unfortunately the last 3 are occupied by Greece.
Young athletes from all over Turkey were around during that week. They were mixing with tourist in all main spots of the city. Moving in big groups easily distinguishable by the red color of their garnnments. They were laughing out loud, having good time in the big city...I was glad to see so many of them. They are garantee that formal education is reaching the masses, they are garantee of a better future...
Of course, while in Turkey you must try some of the many street foods. After first having simits, and then tea, we came upon this vendor and decided to try the kestanes (chestnuts). This was one thing I had never tried on a NYC winter's street but decided to give it a try in Istanbul. It was not for me - found the texture a little strange. Was too full to try the misir (corn on the cob), which I know I would have enjoyed!
The misir was 1.50 TL and the kestanes were 5 TL for 150g.
When you check the photos of the stadium you can see it is located in the Dolmahce Palace.
In 1940's it was possible to conctarct a stadium in a palace garden :)
Alos this stadium named 3 times in it is all life.
1)Mithat pasha Stadium (ottoman period prime minister name)
2)Dolmabahce Stadium (name of the where is located
3)Inonu Stadium (This stadium constracted during his precidency)
Besiktas Inönü Stadium (Turkish: Besiktas Inönü Stadyumu) is the home of the football club Besiktas J.K. in Istanbul, Turkey. It is located in Dolmabahçe, close to the elegant Dolmabahçe Palace in the district of Beþiktaþ, on the European side of Istanbul. The stadium has a capacity of 32,145[2] (all-seater).
BJK Inönü Stadium was designed by Italian architect Paolo Vietti Violi, who collaborated with Turkish architects Sinasi Sahingiray and Fazil Aysu for preparing the project. The stadium, formerly known as the Dolmabahçe Stadium due to its vicinity to Dolmabahçe Palace, was inaugurated on 19 May 1947 by Ismet Inönü, the second President of Turkey, and Lütfi Kirdar, the Governor of Istanbul. Interestingly, the first goal in this stadium was scored by Süleyman Seba, the most famous and longest-presiding Chairman of the club (in the 1980s and 1990s) when he used to be a player of Besiktas JK.
According to the great football legend Pelé, BJK Inönü Stadium has the most beautiful view of any stadium in the world, is one of the world's most beautiful football venues, and is definitely the most beautiful stadium in Europe.
While seated on the tribunes of this stadium, one can see the Bosphorus, Dolmabahçe Palace, Dolmabahçe Clock Tower, Dolmabahçe Mosque, and the famous Kýz Kulesi (Maiden's Tower). It is the only stadium in the world from which a football fan can view two continents, Europe and Asia, which are separated by the Bosphorus.
This museum covers the history of transport, industry and communications.
My main reason for visiting, was to go onboard and inside a Submarine. As well as this, I found out the Museum had a lot more to offer of very interesting exhibits.
There were exhibits on Road, Rail, Water & Air transport, displays on engineering, communications and scientific instruments as well as models and toys, and hands on if you wish.
There were nice Tea rooms situated on the edge of the Golden Horn, a Gift shop and Toilets.
The Bus to Istanbul leaves right outside the complex. The complex is housed both sides of the road, and is extremely well presented, with a huge variety of antique items on display. This would have to be one of the best museums of this kind.
I enjoyed it immensely, I think a man would spend a lot more time here than I did, and I spent quite a bit!
ADMISSION IN 2009 was 10t/l
TO VISIT THE SUBMARINE COSTS AN EXTRA 5t/l
Submarine visits are timed. You inquire and book at arrival. Max 14 persons per visit.
