In the pulsating heart of the city, iconic as an international metropolis and exotic as an ancient empire, welcome to the W Istanbul, where our 136 guest rooms and specialty suites reflect the latest in modern amenities. Comfortable. Stylish. Cool. Each room comes equipped with what you need to stay connected. So revel in magnificence. Stay a while.
Who loves design?
The guest rooms are the carriers of the soul of combination logic; East meets West, history meets modernism and contemporary luxury. The room design is based on the old Turkish tradition of Safranbolu houses - all functional activities are hidden behind doors, the sink resembles the marble basin of a classical Turkish bath and the red transparent wall seperating the shower area creates and exotic and sexy effect in the room. Marmara marble is used on all wet ground. The original stone pattern of the Dolmabahce Akaretler Row Houses is used on the bathroom mirrors, bedheads and ceilings.
