A timeless palace between the continents.

Relax in one of our traditional hammams, spend an afternoon lounging around our outdoor pool, and savour Anatolian delicacies as you admire the soaring minarets and towers of the city’s inimitable waterfront skyline. We’ll show you a seldom-seen side of Istanbul during your stay with us.
