Four Seasons Istanbul at the Bosphorus

I had wanted to visit Istanbul for so long and I was delighted to book the Four Seasons at Bosphorus for my birthday! Firstly the Four Seasons is my favourite hotel group and they never disappoint! My friend and I had a great welcome and Ebru the customer relations manager was amazing! Given twin rooms are becoming difficult to obtain - Ebru moved us to a better light and bright room which was terrific!! All the staff from reception, to restaurants throughout the hotel were amazing including the fabulous concierge who booked last minute places for us where we wanted to go! The breakfast was the stunner! I specifically asked for a dish which the team took a photograph from my phone and each morning without asking i received this wonderful breakfast- the buffet was one if the best having tried many Four Seasons. The hotel location is stunning and on the river and despite the weather not being sunny- the pool looked amazing and is something fabulous to look forward to on a future visit! We organised a boat trip for which the boat called us from the Four Season's own jetty and it was a pleasure to sit out on the beautiful terrace and watch the world go by! We tried the spa which again was amazing and one of my favourites!! As it was my birthday- the hotel changed the room bedding with beautiful embroidered Happy birthday on the pillows which was a lovely touch!! On the day we had champagne and cake all complimentary !! The distinguishing feature of this hotel is the service!! It went above and beyond at every occasion! It was truly amazing and I cannot wait to revisit!

I’m always happy when staying at the Four Seasons, it’s all about the amazing experience and the connection that I have with the brand. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the stunning views of Istanbul you will definitely enjoy a relaxing day here. I would like to thank Ms. Reggie and Mr. Mehmet from guest relations they really went the extra mile to make our stay memorable, I really appreciate your efforts!

We expected luxury in this hotel and it did not disappoint. The lobby was tastefully decorated with artwork pieces throughout. The room was large and spacious. A minor nit is that there is only one sink in the bathroom. The breakfast buffet was good with good selections.

After spending four nights at the Saltanhamet Four Seasons hotel, we moved up river to the Bosphorus Four Seasons. Whilst a much bigger hotel in a different area of Istanbul we had a wonderful time there and can highly recommend the hotel for a great stay. It was lovely to eat breakfast and dinner by the side of the Bosphorus. The breakfast team were just lovely, each day recommending traditional Turkish breakfast dishes. They could not have been more helpful and pleasant. Concierge team; spa team and breakfast team were all stand out for service - many thanks indeed. As, were the housekeeping staff too - sincere thanks for making our time with you so memorable.

The Four Seasons Istanbul is simply exceptional. Service is warm, professional, and truly dedicated to every guest. Luxury is present in every small detail, from the rooms to the dining experience and nothing feels overlooked. Yes, it’s expensive, but worth every moment: comfort, elegance, and hospitality come together seamlessly. All team members are excellent, and the location gives easy access to Istanbul’s main highlights. A stay here is more than a hotel experience, it’s pure enjoyment. Thank you to the entire team!
