The luxurious and historical Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet is housed in a century-old neoclassical Turkish prison. Nowadays, guests can still see elements of the original prison structure throughout the hotel: hand-painted tiles in the lobby and reception areas as the floor tiles by the elevators; original wooden doors and arched hallways; marble pillars, some with carvings by inmates; or the landscaped courtyard, which once served an exercise yard.
The hotel is just in the heart of Istanbul, only steps away from the world famous monuments like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. This makes the hotel an ideal choice for those travellers who want to experience the central Istanbul on foot.
Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet offers 65 rooms and suites circling a manicured courtyard where birds sing and a fragrant herb garden gives off an enticing smell. Each room is designed around the building's unique architecture, and amenities are plentiful, including a refrigerated private bar, large plasma television, MP3 player docking station and a DVD and CD player.
Istanbul could easily be called as one of the top culinary cities in the world, therefore guests should try savour foods at the hotel's Seasons Restaurant.
