Legacy Ottoman Hotel - 5* - Bed & Breakfast

This 5-star hotel is located in the heart of Istanbul's historical Old City. The building was designed and built in the early 1900s as part of a complex belonging to Sutan Abdulhamid I in a style called Ottoman Revivalism, and although renovated,it certainly lives up to its name with echoes of its grand and illustrious past throughout.

Rooms are elegantly decorated, maintaining their grand character and are comfortably appointed with air-conditioning and satellite TV sets in every room.

Facilities are excellent with indoor pool, Turkish bath (hammam), sauna, spa and massage facilities all available to help guests unwind after a busy day's sightseeing.

The hotel's main restaurant boasts views across the Bosphorous and the rooftop bar allows guests to enjoy their drinks with panoramic views over the city's hitoric and dramatic skyline.

The hotel's central location allows for easy access to many of the most historic sites and is just a short walk from Galata bridge, the Egyptian bazaar and Hagia Sophia amongst others.

"First impressions when we saw the gulet was 'wow!' The crew were so welcoming and the cabin beyond our expectations. Everything was perfect, the food was plentiful and delicious. The gulet was spacious and comfortable and sleeping on deck under the stars and watching the sunrise is something really special. Thank you, thank you. An unforgettable holiday that was so, so special..."  Mr & Mrs Guy

"Our holiday in Turkey exceeded our expectations. Cappadocia was interesting and beautiful. It was exciting staying in cave. Istanbul was amazing. We had very little previous experience of Turkey and Turkish people, so we enjoyed the beauty of the country and friendly hospitality of the people. We felt safe and not at all threatened in the city. The quality of food and service in restaurants was good. Efes beer is very tasty."  Mr David Hyam

"We arrived home from Fethiye on Monday, and would just like to thank you and Akin for planning an amazing trip. The gulet was fantastic and as usual, the Ece Saray Hotel was lovely. The staff there are some of the best we have come across, and the breakfasts were great. We are looking ahead to 2023 and were wondering if you could arrange a quote for a similar trip."  Sue and Mike Fedeczko - 28 September 2022
