Istanbul is a huge metropolis connecting continents, cultures, religions and being home to eleven million people; and one of the greatest business and cultural centre of the region. Istanbul is the only city in the world to sit astride two continents. Its west part is in Europe and east part is in Asia. The important waterline dividing Istanbul into two is the Bosphorus. In its south stretches Marmara Sea and in its north is Black Sea. The only alternative to reach the Aegean Sea and the Meditteranean Sea, therefore to open sea is to use Istanbul and the the Bosphorus. Istanbul is both the nearest Asian city to Europe and the nearest European city to Asia. What adds to Istanbul?s significance is its being a port city and all trade paths? passing through the city for thousands of years.
The Four Seasns Hotel Istanbul was created from a century-old neo-classic Turkish prison ? designated a historic treasure ? and is steps from the fabled Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. Just 65 guest rooms and suites frame an open magnificent courtyard, for an atmosphere of personal attention and ease unprecedented in Istanbul.
