The opening of the luxurious Raffles Istanbul hotel, part of the world-famous hotel brand Raffles, is scheduled for the summer of 2014 in the Besiktas district of Istanbul. The hotel will be part of the hotel group of the Zorlu shopping and entertainment center, located near the coast of the Bosphorus.
Raffles Istanbul will be the second representative of the legendary VIP hotel brand in Europe. Let us recall that Le Royal Monceau Raffles Paris was previously opened in Paris.
Raffles Istanbul will feature a banquet hall with a capacity of 1 people, a signature spa center "Raffles Spa", which will be one of the largest in Istanbul, two swimming pools (indoor and outdoor), a helipad, several restaurants. The hotel will have more than 200 rooms and suites.
Although the details of the interior design of Raffles Spa are still unknown, there is every reason to believe that it will be no worse than in the French hotel of the brand. Let us recall that Le Royal Monceau Raffles Paris boasts a chic setting with many sculptures, paintings and elements of video art.
