Peaceful Ottoman Elegance!
Beautiful property set on a former Ottoman palace. The views of the Bosphorus, the spa, the afternoon tea, and the hotel team were unforgettable. East shuttle transport to Sultanahmet at certain hours. Thanks to Onur and Hiba for making our stay remarkable!!

One thing that we didn't agree with but understand the hotels position is that of male and female segregations when it came to the saunas/steam room facilities. For a 5 star hotel international hotel when you can't share the facilities and experience with your wife or husband is not acceptable. It actually becomes a negative experience.

Money does (sometimes) buy (temporary) happiness
The internet will tell you that the Four Seasons Bosphorus is the best hotel in Istanbul. It is. Full stop. I enjoy bouncing around hotels when I’m in a new city to experience different neighborhoods. I recommend this in Istanbul especially as the traffic is horrific and the neighborhoods are distinct and walkable within each. In any case, I believe I have a better ability to evaluate the Four Seasons having stayed at 3 other 5-star hotels. The neighborhood is around the university and that young people are teeming the bars is fantastic. There also aren’t thousands of restaurant callers because the restaurants here do brisk business. The hotel can arrange for a private boat leaving from its own dock. Worth every penny as a ‘when-will-I-ever-be-on-the-Bosphorus-again?’ experience.

Four Seasons needs no explanation, its simply the best people, in really fantastic properties. As we all make mistakes, when the staff at Four Seasons does, you feel good about that mistake happening to you because they’ll go out of their way to accommodate your needs.
