Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Premium price — Rates from £146 per night for a 5-star property, with club access rooms likely higher — some guests may find it pricey.
- Some rooms face the city — Not every room has a Bosphorus view; city view rooms are available but less scenic.
- Check-in ends at midnight — Check-in is between 14:00 and 23:59, which may be tight for late-night arrivals.
- No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted, which limits options for travellers with animals.
