The architecture is Milanese style and originally part of the nearby Italian Embassy before opening as a luxury hotel in 2008 after a long restoration. It's located a few blocks from a huge and beautiful park, in the most luxury shopping area of Istanbul, with lots of high-end shops like Gucci and Hermès nearby. But what I really like about the area is it also has many cool little indie shops, ice cream parlors, fruit stands and fun neighborhood coffee shops nearby as well, so it has a fun local character as well. The crowd in the surrounding neighborhood is young, upscale, hip and diverse. After waking around Nişantaşı (where the hotel is located), one of my local friends said to me, "Now you know what rich Istanbul is like." :D The staff make this hotel absolutely incredible and Ibrahim at the front desk is great. Also, Leyla Kiper with guest services is exceptional. She was so wonderful when she greeted me at reception and is funny and caring. Leyla is a real asset to the hotel. Some of the hotel rooms even have their own private hammam in the bathroom with a steam shower. The beds are extremely comfortable. Rooms also feature a special faucet with filtered water. The hotel gym is exceptional and is very glitzy and high-tech. I really enjoyed using the beautifully maintained equipment. Breakfast is one of the best hotel breakfasts that I've had in Turkey with traditional Turkish dishes offered as well as fantastic pastries, and healthy juices. Basically anything you could ask for. The pool is more of a lap pool and looks pretty but it's definitely usable. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel, especially if you enjoy upscale modern luxury hotels, like high-end shopping but want to be in an area that feels affluent and local but not very touristy.

They were able to upgrade our room to a premium king suite - it did not fall short of its name! The room was spacious. The bed felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. The bathroom included a full steam room, hamam, tub, and shower. We were stocked with le labo products (the best)! Now on to the breakfast - where to begin. Everything tasted so fresh and fantastic. They have entrees to prepare for you as well as a large buffet spread. Fresh juice and coffees brought to your table! There is a lovely park just a block away that we walked through twice. If I'm ever back in Istanbul, I'm staying at the Park Hyatt.
