What a special place! Not only perfect Four Seasons top services but a unique construction with a charming roof terrace overlooking the gorgeous views of the d city and the sea. Perfect location to walk to the principal historic sites and for sure was the best pick for the trip. I felt save and loved in Turkey. Do not stop visit Turkey or Paris or London or America because of fear, religion or for not to agree with Politics, we live in a crazy unfair world but lovely people are there waiting for...

Istanbul City Center

10/10 Excellent

Istanbul is a great city and you can't find a better location than hotel Sultania. All the main attractions (topkapi palace, hagia sophia, basilic cistern, blu mosque, Egyptian bazaar) are within walking distance, the longest we walked was to the grand bazaar which was about 1 km. However, the tram is right around the corner if you don't like to walk, and is very frequent. Even the ferries to galata and the Asian side are walking distance. The hotel and the hotel staff are extraordinary. They...

Istanbul City Center

10/10 Excellent

A gem of a find- I thought we were headed to the Four Seasons Istanbul until I found this Marriot Bonvoy hotel as a completely overhauled historical building blocks from the Bosphorous and from the top sites in Istanbul. The architectural and interior design details are impeccable, but pale in comparison to the top notch staff that give a different meaning to hospitality. When Yigit the concierge met me he said that I had broken his heart by not responding to his heartfelt emails in wanting to...
