Istanbul Diary: Four Seasons rooftop

If you ever find yourself in Istanbul, be sure to swing by the Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul for some tea on the rooftop. This exquisite property has been converted from an old neoclassical Turkish prison. Located in the heart of the city in Sultanahmet, you are literally steps away from Topkapi Palace, the Blue Mosque and all the other architectural jewels in the neighbourhood. Talk about being steeped in the beauty of Istanbul while enjoying the conveniences of a moderm, luxury hotel. When I return to Istanbul, I'm coming back here for dinner when it's full moon!
