WHY WE LIKE THIS HOTEL

East meets West on the banks of the sea strait at Vakko Hotel & Residence Sumahan Bosphorus. French architects have breathed new life into this centuries-old Ottoman distillery, creating a unique hideaway from Istanbul’s hustle. Here, against a backdrop of fortresses and palaces, you can indulge in Italian flavours, Parisian pastries, and the art of caviar. While enjoying superlative service and just-for-you customised experiences. Wake to sunrise on the water, framed by tall arched windows. If you’d like to stay and take in the views all day, no problem; at Vakko Hotel & Residence everything can be brought to you. From a made-to-measure tailoring service to in-room personal shopping, and spa therapies in the privacy of your suite. With creature comforts like marble-clad bathrooms, fireplaces and rainfall showers, these are bedrooms made to spend time in. The hotel’s private hammam may tempt you out to be bathed and pampered from head to toe. This hotel has one of the best views making it one of our favourite hotels in Istanbul.
