Swissôtel The Bosphorus, Istanbul
Istanbul · Beşiktaş · ★★★★★
A large 566-room hotel set in former Dolmabahçe Palace gardens above Beşiktaş, with Bosphorus views from many rooms, extensive meeting space, indoor and outdoor pools and apartment-style residences. Service and breakfast are consistently praised; prices, especially for dining, are high and rail transit is not within easy reach.
AC Hotel Istanbul Maçka
Istanbul · Beşiktaş · ★★★★
A 98-room, 10-floor city hotel on Süleyman Seba Caddesi in Akaretler, a short walk from Dolmabahçe Palace, Maçka Park and Nişantaşı. Location, cleanliness and sleep quality are its strengths; there is no pool or on-site parking, and breakfast is modest and not always included.
The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul
Istanbul · Şişli · ★★★★★
A 5-star hotel opened in 2001 in the lower floors of the Süzer Plaza tower in Elmadağ, best known for east-facing Bosphorus views, a 1,500 m² spa with an indoor pool and hammam, and consistently praised service. Dolmabahçe Palace is walkable, but reaching Taksim means an uphill walk along a busy road.
