The stay

Editor's notes

Breakfast & dining

The Dish Room serves Turkish and international food all day, with a summer terrace. There is also My Bar, a lobby coffee point serving Starbucks, and 24-hour room service. The Executive Lounge has an evening spread of snacks and drinks. Whether breakfast is included depends on the rate booked.

Room types

Standard rooms come as City View or Sea View, so book Sea View if you want the Bosphorus. All rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. Five suite types range from 45 to 180 m²; the Corner Suite is 59 m² for up to three guests and the two-bedroom suite is 72 m² with one king and one twin room. Suites and executive rooms include access to the 32nd-floor lounge. One 2025 review said the hotel needs refreshing compared with rivals at similar prices, but this was not confirmed as a wider pattern.

Extra fees & things to know

Parking costs €14 a day. Pets incur a non-refundable €100 per stay (the official page also lists a €25 per-night line, so confirm when booking). A private airport transfer is €100 one way plus VAT. Executive Lounge access is paid unless you hold Platinum status or above. The official site says in-room Wi-Fi is free for Bonvoy members booking direct; check terms if booking through a third party.

Pool, spa & fitness

The Health Club & Spa covers roughly 2,300 m² according to opening-era sources. The indoor pool, whirlpool and 24-hour gym are free for guests per the official site. There is a hammam, sauna and steam room, and the official gallery shows an indoor tennis court. Spa treatments are charged separately.
