Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul
Great place! The only minus of this hotel is a walk to the tram station - it takes about 15-20 min to get there and it’s uphill, you just need to be ready for that after a whole day of exploring Istanbul, but the stay at the hotel is worth it with all the amazing amenities and wonderful staff!
