Romance Istanbul Hotel

Istanbul, Türkiye

Romance Istanbul Hotel is a luxury boutique hotel and spa in Sultanahmet, the historic heart of Istanbul. It belongs to the Yaşmak Hotel Collection, alongside the Yaşmak Sultan Hotel, Hotel Sultania and The Soul Hotel.

Tripadvisor ranks it No. 4 in its Travelers' Choice Best of the Best Hotels 2025, the award's list of top hotels in the world. The Hotel Guru praises its romantic, ornate interiors and sums it up as "a regal retreat".

The hotel's theme is the talisman shirts of the Ottoman sultans, from Bayezid II and Suleiman the Magnificent to Murad III and Mehmet IV, which hang on its walls. Rooms carry Ottoman decorative touches, from compact City Rooms of 14 square metres to deluxe rooms and triples. The spa has a marble-clad pool and offers hammam rituals and massages, and the Olive Anatolian Restaurant belongs to the same collection.
