This restored 19th-century Ottoman palace was converted to contain 170 bright and airy guest rooms and suites, a quarter of which have views across the sea to the shoreline of Asia. Rooms — done in tones of blue or terra-cotta, with copper and burgundy accents — include features such as Ottoman-style sofas, writing desks, walk-in closets, custom-designed fabrics and mahogany furniture. The principal restaurant, Aqua (serving Mediterranean cuisine), overlooks the Bosphorus, as does the seasonal 90-foot swimming pool. Additional dining options include the lobby bar-lounge, which offers an all-day light Turkish menu. An adjacent 22,600-square-foot spa provides 10 treatment rooms, a fitness studio, an indoor swimming pool, a sauna and a hammam.
