Frommer's Review

In 1996 the Istanbul Sheraton morphed into the Ceylan Inter-Continental, making way for yet another luxury five-star hotel. Unfortunately, the existing concrete-and-glass exterior didn't change its shape in the process. But structures like these are meant to please the eye from the inside, and that it does. The central glass-and-marble staircase sets the stage for just the right amount of pomp for the hotel's international clientele. The rooms are plush and elegant, with an armchair, desk, and love seat to create a homey feel. If you book online, you can get rates as low as 176€ ($246/£126). And it's all just a few steps away from the bustle of Taksim Square.

Facilities:
3 restaurants; 3 bars; patisserie; outdoor pool; state-of-the-art health club; hamam; Jacuzzi; sauna; tanning salon; shopping arcade; salon; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; Wi-Fi, nonsmoking rooms; elevator

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
