Occupying a historical building dating from the late 19th century, this elegant, centrally located hotel enjoys a superb position at the point where the Bosphorus meets the Golden Horn, at the heart of an area buzzing with museums, art galleries, shopping and entertainment venues. Within walking distance of Istiklal Street and Sultanahmet across the Golden Horn, guests can benefit from exploring much that this fascinating city has to offer, on foot. The beautiful, palatial rooms feature high ceilings, chandeliers and windows decorated with drapes and blinds. A panoramic terrace provides guests with wondrous views. Karakoy ferry port is nearby with ferry services to Kadikoy on the Asian side of the city and a tramline runs close to the hotel.
