Overview
"A sophisticated oasis in one of the city's most bustling urban districts" (Fodor’s), The Istanbul EDITION is one of the top picks for business and leisure travelers. It has won praise for its personal service and is just four stops from Taksim Square via the nearby Levent metro station, and just 10 minutes by taxi from the Bosphorus Bridge. There's also a huge shopping mall immediately opposite the hotel.
The hotel's brightest star is hidden deep underground. Spread across three subterranean floors, the 20,000-square-foot spa is recommended by Condé Nast Traveler and is remarkably opulent. Harper's Bazaar says it "holds its own against the city’s sensational hammams" with a snow cabin, tranquil lap pool and 10 treatment rooms. There's also a fitness room.
The in-house restaurant Cipriani has also turned heads. This outpost of the prestigious Venetian restaurant specializes in signature Bellini cocktails and traditional dishes such as stuffed zucchini flowers and carefully tended risottos (open October-May). Finish off the evening with the city’s glitterati at the Billionaire Club or retire to the Gold Bar, where you can admire the tropical fish in the 20-foot aquarium over cocktails or Turkish tea.
Rooms are large enough to be suites, and each has a large, L-shaped couch and floor-to-ceiling windows. iPads loaded with local info are available on request, there's free Wi-Fi in every room, and the TVs are top of the line. Marble bathrooms have a great waterfall shower and a sunken soaking tub, and most rooms have panoramic city views, especially those on higher floors.
