Editorial review
This contemporary conference hotel is located on a hilltop overlooking the Bosphorus. It has spacious, relaxing rooms, many of which have amazing views (and these cost extra). The pool area is nice for those who want to relax, and the rooftop bar is outstanding. The breakfast served on the terrace has great pastries and breathtaking views. Critics disliked the location in the middle of skyscrapers.
