1. Ciragan Palace Kempinski

    A former Ottoman palace on the Bosphorus's European shore, now a Kempinski property that straddles imperial restoration and modern luxury across twin buildings. The waterfront gardens stretch nearly a mile, and guests arrive by private boat, helicopter, or car—a logistical drama befitting the grandeur within.
