You’ll know you’ve found the place to be in Istanbul when you arrive at the City Lights Bar on the top floor of the hotel. A mix of 100 exotic cocktails, spellbinding views of the Bosphorus, chic décor, and live Latin music Wednesday to Saturday is what nightlife in the city is all about. Light snacks, afternoon coffee and Sunday brunch are also served.

A British accent prevails in the warm atmosphere of the English Bar. Comfy leather Chesterfield couches make you feel right at home as you savour an array of whiskies, light snacks, international drinks, beers, imported cigars and a sports match on a big-screen television. The only thing missing is the remote control.
