E-visa for 20hr layover at Istanbul airport, is hotel reservation necessary?

Well if you want to be on the safe side, you can always book a cheap hostel even if you don't plan to stay in it. With 12% booking fee and a booking protection it would effectively cost you 1-3 euros which you can cancel and even redeem on a later booking. Compared to 15 Euros (depending from where you are) visa it is hardly a big extra cost.

I believe a visa shouldn't be a problem without a previously made booking, since i do remember I haven't been asked to show my booking confirmation last time I was there, but still it is not something i would bet on to be the case every time.

It would be great if you could post back your experience if you tried getting an on site visa without booking previously.
