Rüstem Pasha Caravanserai
Rüstem Paşa Kervansarayı
A 16th-century caravanserai built by Sinan for a grand vizier, now a historic hotel where you can stay.
Designed by Sinan in the 1560s for Grand Vizier Rüstem Pasha, this caravanserai has a large and a small courtyard, surrounded by two-storey arcaded guest rooms. It was once a resting place for caravans travelling to and from the Balkans. Today the large courtyard is a hotel, where visitors can walk through the courtyard or have tea at the café, and guests can stay in the stone rooms that recall Ottoman style. It is located on the south side of the Old Mosque and within walking distance of the city centre.
