Frommer's "This lavish hotel is the talk of the town and only the most overused (but apt) superlatives will describe it." Full review
Concierge "The sultans themselves would have appreciated local designer Zeynep Fadılloğlu's lavishness and attention to detail."
Condé Nast Traveler99.6
"It may not look like much from the outside—a white facade behind a skimpy porte cochère—but on the inside, where it counts, Les Ottomans is a well-executed fantasy." Full review
Star Service "Right on the banks of the Bosporus in upscale Kurucesme near several esteemed nightlife ventures and pricey restaurants, Les Ottomans is an extraordinary venture." Full review

Frommer's "Maybe it's hip because it's a pioneer -- Siraselviler Avenue used to be a bit dicey, but it's now very close to having a clean bill of health." Full review
Concierge "The lively nightlife and shopping area around Beyoğlu is generally neglected by hotel entrepreneurs... the Lush is the first to offer interesting accommodation without the fanfare."
Jetsetter "Eclectic hotel with arty rooms and bags of character in Istanbul’s vibrant Taksim Square." Full review

You can choose from cereals, pastries and Turkish favorites — sesame-covered simit, goat cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and yogurt — ask the waiter for Turkish tea and eggs made to order.
Lonely Planet "One of a fast-sprouting crop of boutique hotels around town, this self-consciously hip place has 35 attractive rooms of varying sizes, all of which are individually decorated and full of amenities."
