The Best Hotels in Şişli

Art deco bones meet a curated collection of Ottoman and contemporary art throughout this luxury hotel in Nişantaşı, Istanbul's high-fashion quarter. The library alone, stocked with volumes on design and Ottoman history, suggests a place that takes its interiors seriously. Commissioned works and pieces from the Demsa Collection hang in corridors and guest rooms alike. It holds a Forbes Four Star rating, and the butler service runs the way the brand's New York heritage always promised it would.

The bones here are 1920s Milanese art deco, and the Park Hyatt has leaned into them rather than buried them in a renovation. This Forbes Four Star hotel sits in Nişantaşı, Istanbul's most gilded neighborhood, where the patisseries charge accordingly and the boutiques don't post prices. What was once a private apartment block for the city's elite is now sleek and minimal inside the ornate shell, which is either a tension or a conversation, depending on your taste in lobbies.

The first twelve floors of Suzer Plaza belong to this Ritz-Carlton, a luxury hotel perched above the Bosphorus in the thick of the city. The renovation a few years back gave the interiors a contemporary frame with Ottoman accents, so the rooms feel rooted somewhere specific rather than nowhere in particular. Forbes Four Star. The views do a lot of the talking, and the staff, apparently, lets them.
