Four Seasons Bosphorus

Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus

If you would like to enjoy Ottoman-style indulgence by the Bosphorus, this is the place to be. The hotel building was part of a series of 19th-century palaces and summer residences that were built along the 5-km coastal strip stretching between the Dolmabahçe Palace and Ortaköy Mosque to host members of the royal family. Today, it welcomes guests in a sophisticated setting and two modern annexes, designed with an understated elegance that is the trademark of the Four Seasons hotel chain.

The outdoor pool feels like a natural extension of the glittering waters of the Bosphorus, while the interior spa pool is still one of the best in Istanbul. The private Turkish hammam chambers of the spa are also outstanding. The hotel’s main restaurant Aqua plays a double role as the breakfast hall of the hotel and a high-caliber dining hall serving Italian and Turkish food on tables scattered around a vast terrace by the water.

Beyond its stunning amenities, Four Seasons Bosphorus offers an impeccable location. Situated in the vibrant Beşiktaş neighborhood, the hotel allows you to immerse yourself in the true essence of Istanbul. Take a walk along the shores of Bosphorus, where you can soak in the striking views of the waterway and the city. The iconic Beşiktaş and Ortaköy piers are just a few minutes walk away, offering both a picturesque escape and the perfect spot to hop on a boat for a delightful cruise along the Bosphorus.

The cultural richness surrounding the hotel is equally impressive. Dolmabahçe Palace Museum, with its opulent grandeur, is nearby, while the lush gardens of Yıldız Park offer a serene retreat for those who'd like to enjoy a morning walk or run. The backstreets of Beşiktaş and Ortaköy, full of hidden gems, invite you to explore and discover local art, food, and vibrant city life, making Four Seasons Bosphorus an ideal base for those looking to experience the best of Istanbul.

Assouline Lounge at the Hotel

Additionally, the newly opened Assouline Lounge at Four Seasons Bosphorus offers a unique and inviting space where guests can unwind and enjoy a relaxing atmosphere. With a curated library featuring art and literature, the lounge provides a perfect spot to relax with a tea, coffee or a cocktail. Surrounded by contemporary design and art, Assouline Lounge offers a refined yet cozy environment for those looking to enjoy a quiet moment or engage in inspiring conversation.
