One of the most revered destinations in Istanbul, the Four Seasons Bosphorus boasts one of the best vantage points in the city. Perching on the edge of the Bosphorus sea-strait and looking out over the Bosphorus Bridge, it's perfectly placed to take in the location's contrasting cultures.
The hotel has 145 guest rooms and 25 suites and is located in a grand 19th-century Ottoman palace. Inside, its grandeur is emphasised with hand-painted ceilings, marble surfaces and Turkish carpets.
