Check rates for Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG
Ad · affiliate links — we may earn a commission if you book through these links. It never changes the price you pay, and it never changes our verdict. How this works
No nightly price is quoted anywhere on this page: we hold no live rate for this property, and a rate printed into a static page is wrong within hours. These links open each partner’s own Istanbulhotel search — search for “Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG” when you land. We link to the search rather than to a deep link because no per-property deep-link parameter has been verified for these programmes, and a link that quietly lands on the wrong hotel would be worse than one extra step. Trip.com is listed first because it is the partner we work with directly; if the property is not on it, Booking.com carries the widest inventory of the three. We may earn a commission from any of them, and that does not change what this page says about the hotel.
Booking direct? +90 212 463 05 00 — we earn nothing from this one, and direct rates sometimes include breakfast or free cancellation that an aggregated rate does not.

The verdict
Book it for the aquarium, the mall and a suburban pool stay; do not book it expecting to walk to Sultanahmet — location scores 9.65 out of 10 for Florya, not for the historic peninsula.
The pin is explicit. our hotel data provider puts İstanbul Akvaryum at 0.6 km, Aqua Florya at 0.6 km, Florya Marmaray at 0.6 km and Atatürk Köşkü at 1 km — then Hagia Sophia at 15 km and Taksim at 17 km. That is the trade in one table.
The supplier rating is 9.4 out of 10 from 3,863 reviews, captured 12 December 2025. Service scores 9.99 with named staff praise; food and beverage 9.64 with Atrox restaurant called out positively. Cleanliness is the soft spot at 8.64, and breakfast price grumbles appear in the value summary.
Facilities match a suburban five-star IHG stay: fitness centre, swimming pool, restaurant, bar, terrace, garden, family rooms, pets allowed, airport shuttle, free parking and parking are listed. IST is 35 km.
Pros name polite staff and a great location near attractions — meaning Florya’s mall and aquarium, not the Blue Mosque. Cons name cleanliness improvements and high breakfast prices without quoting a figure.
Best for
- Families centred on Istanbul Aquarium and Aqua Florya
- Travellers who want free parking and an airport shuttle listed away from the peninsula traffic
- Anyone building a seafront suburban stay with Marmaray access at 0.6 km
Not for
- First-time visitors who want Hagia Sophia on foot — it is 15 km away
- Taksim nightlife trips without a long transfer — Taksim is 17 km
- Guests who will not tolerate cleanliness scores at 8.64 out of 10

This is an aggregate of published guest reviews from other booking sites, not a TravelShifu rating.

Head to head
Radisson Blu Istanbul Ottomare vs Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul
Historic-corridor Marmaray against western seafront — Kazlıçeşme near Sultanahmet against Florya at the aquarium — two suburban bases that are not interchangeable.
Hilton Istanbul Bomonti vs Crowne Plaza Florya
Şişli five-star against Florya seafront — Taksim at 2.2 km against Hagia Sophia at 15 km — city base versus aquarium-side suburb.
Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus vs Crowne Plaza Florya
Beşiktaş Bosphorus five-star against Florya seafront — Dolmabahçe at 0.5 km against Hagia Sophia at 15 km — waterfront luxury in two different cities of the same city.

Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG — common questions
- Is Crowne Plaza Florya too far from the Old City?
- For a Sultanahmet-heavy week, yes. Hagia Sophia is 15 km and Topkapı 15.5 km on our hotel data provider’s figures. For an aquarium-and-mall stay with Marmaray at 0.6 km, the distance is the product, not a surprise.
- Does it have an airport shuttle?
- Yes — an airport shuttle is listed in the amenities we cite, alongside free parking and a swimming pool. IST is 35 km on the POI row. We still do not quote a shuttle price — check the partner for your dates.
- What time is check-in and check-out at Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG?
- Check-in is from 02:00 PM and check-out is by 12:00 PM. These are the property's own published times as published by the property to our hotel data provider. Luggage storage is listed among the facilities.
- What is near Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG?
- Our hotel data provider records İstanbul Akvaryum (Istanbul Aquarium) at 600 m, Florya Marmaray Station at 600 m, Aqua Florya Shopping & Entertainment Complex at 600 m. Distances are straight-line from the property, so a walking route is usually a little longer.
- Which airport is nearest to Crowne Plaza Florya Istanbul by IHG?
- The supplier records IST as the served airport for this property. That is the airport code our hotel data provider associates with the hotel, not a measured distance — check the route for your own arrival time before you rely on it.
