A grandiose and historic hotel in Istanbul’s Sultanahmet District – includes breakfast, welcome drink, activity perks and more
Historic character: For a cultural whirl in the world’s only city to straddle two continents (Europe and Asia), this unique property was built as an Ottoman school and hospital in the mid-1800s and renovated as a “special class historic hotel” in 2005 – a title used by the government to denote places with particular local charm or character.
Ottoman vibes: The vibe at this charming hotel feels very high-end, especially in the welcoming guest rooms and suites that have been spruced up with tasteful Ottoman-style decor – think traditional Turkish rugs, rich colour palates, and lashings of dark woods. Ottoman Hotel Imperial sports a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
Tantalising Turkish dining: There’s a huge emphasis on cuisine from a bygone age at Matbah Restaurant, the signature dining spot that offers both indoor and outdoor seating. Expect outstanding Ottoman-style dishes from Matbah-ı Beray-i (Kitchen of Sultan’s Palace) with a modern twist. Or, dine in the cosy Sultan’s Lounge, perfect for intimate dinners.
How to get there
Ottoman Hotel Imperial is 43 kilometres away from Istanbul Airport.
