The Bank Hotel Istanbul

A former 19th Century bank in Istanbul's financial district, from which the hotel takes it name; The Bank Hotel Istanbul is a grand boutique hotel with 63 rooms. Art and culture focused, it has been superbly restored by award-winning architect Han Tümertekin. The blend of classic and contemporary styles encompass luxurious modern interiors and retain original features to showcase the building's heritage.

Located overlooking the Golden Horn in the up-and-coming artistic neighbourhood of Karaköy on Bankalar Caddesi, the hotel has an in-house art curator and is well placed to explore historic Sultanahmet, the Galata Port and bohemian Beyoğlu on foot. There is a choice of eateries and galleries in the neighbourhood and the Spice Market and Galata Tower are close-by sightseeing destinations.

Treatments are available at the Spa and there is a state-of-the-art gym, relaxation room, as well as a sauna, steam rooms and three treatment rooms for massages or facials.

Kasa Lokanta,the hotel's restaurant, serves up modern Mediterranean dishes in the elegant dining room and 'Kasa Roof Lounge' overlooking the historical peninsula and Golden Horn skyline, is a great place to chill out and mingle on warm summer days.  The circular gold bar, with a drinks cabinet set in one of the original bank vaults, is within the restaurant.
