Beautiful hotel overlooking the Bosphorus. We enjoyed our stay as the rooms are big and we had a view of the water. Afternoon tea was really special and the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely beautiful place at very nice location by the Bosphorus. Super clean and such a good service. I came very early morning and Sinan (front desk guy) tried to do his best to give me the room as early as possible. After few days we were celebrating my friend’s birthday and Karina (guest relations manager) brought us a mini cake with the balloons and birthday card. It was so sweet. All the stuff was very responsive at any time. Will definitely go back there again.
