“This family-run hotel distinguishes itself with a rooftop terrace, providing rare panoramic views. I think the Ottoman-inspired decor and Iznik tile designs create an authentic sense of place. Its proximity to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia makes it an ideal base, and the complimentary Turkish sweets add a personal touch.”
