Travel Agent - February 2, 2009 - (Page 15) THIS PHOTO: The revolving loft at the Marmara Antalya offers a 360-degree view of land and sea RIGHT: Guests of the Marmara Antalya can get some sun before heading off to the mountains to ski family and now an Imperial Treasury; and the Hagia Sophia, once the world’s largest cathedral and now a museum. Tip: If cruise ships are in port, your clients will want to visit the sites in reverse order to miss the crowds. A trip to the Blue Mosque should include a stop at the site of the largest Greek Hippodrome in the world, outside the mosque’s main entrance. The ancient horseracing track is home to the Obelisk of Theodosius and the Walled, or Constantine, Obelisk. The Marmara Istanbul Hotel (www.themar marahotels.com), in the heart of Istanbul’s “New City,” combines Turkish hospitality and style with the elegance of a traditional hotel. Clients will find the hotel’s 377 deluxe guest rooms and 46 Club Rooms, decorated in blue and white with ornate furniture and panoramic views of the city, charming and well furnished. Room rates range from approximately $220 to $355 for a single room and $240 to $375 for a double. The best sunset- and Bosphorus-view rooms are 1723, 1623, 1221, 1421, 1621 and 1721. Guests of the hotel’s 46 Club Rooms (which include 24-hour personal concierge service and Jacuzzis in the Flying Carpet and Executive Suites) also have access to the Marmara Club Lounge, where they can use telescopes to get a better view of the city. Agents can contact Baris Kaya (bkaya@ themarmarahotels.com, 011-90-21-23-34-8415), Marmara’s marketing manager, international and corporate projects, for booking information for all of Marmara’s six hotels and three residence hotels.
