Spacious rooms and suites, additional bedding in selected categories, babysitting on request, and a highly walkable location make the hotel a thoughtful Old City base for families.

Spa, hammam, and fitness

The hotel's wellness facilities include a traditional Turkish hammam, spa treatments, and fitness. A swimming pool is not currently listed.

Dining

Courtyard dining, rooftop views, all-day cuisine, afternoon tea, and cocktails allow guests to enjoy several sides of Istanbul within the hotel.

Exploring Istanbul

Evyssa can connect the stay with private guiding, Bosphorus experiences, culinary discoveries, airport transfers, and time at the sister Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus.

Signature suites with a view of history

The hotel does not use a separate club floor. Its specialty suites provide the most distinctive sense of place through greater space, historic character, and views toward Hagia Sophia or the Marmara Sea. Evyssa will confirm any current specialty-suite inclusions for your dates.
