A stunning example of neoclassical architecture, it is hard to believe<br />

that Four Seasons Sultanahmet was once a bleak Ottoman jailhouse for<br />

intellectual dissidents. Located on Tevkifhane Sokak, ‘Jailhouse Street’,<br />

the Sultanahmet still bears the inscription Dersaadet Cinayet Tevkifhanesi,<br />

‘Capital City Murder Jail’, on its main gate. The prison exercise yard has<br />

been reincarnated as an immaculate hotel courtyard with an elegant<br />

Seasons Restaurant glass pavilion serving afternoon tea. Just a stone’s<br />

throw away from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, Four Seasons<br />

Sultanahmet is situated at the very heart of the city. A boutique hotel with<br />

only 65 guest rooms, the spa is exclusively for guests and has separate<br />

men’s and women’s saunas.<br />
