"A boutique entry on the Karaköy waterfront that restored three protected heritage buildings to create a space with a distinct East–West sensibility, enlisting master craftspeople to contribute marble, stained glass and mother-of-pearl inlays. Interior touches include mid-20th-century Istanbul photography, copper-hued room panels inspired by Anatolian mosque stonework, and a dramatic underground spa centered on an 82-foot pool beneath light fittings modeled on Islamic muqarnas." - Jennifer Flowers
