Witt Istanbul Hotel

Top choice in Beyoğlu


Showcasing nearly as many designer features as an issue of Architectural Digest, this stylish apartment hotel in Cihangir offers spacious suites with seating area, CD/DVD player, espresso machine, king-size bed and swish bathroom. Most have kitchenettes and a few have panoramic terraces (there's also a communal rooftop terrace). It's a short but steep climb from the Tophane tram stop.
