Meal times are indicative and may be subject to change depending on the season.

Please note that the use of the Spa centre, including massages, treatments, and the sauna/steam room, may be subject to additional charges.

You can maintain your fitness routine in the state-of-the-art gym, which features the latest cardio and weight equipment. In the evenings, the atmosphere shifts to the rooftop, where the B-Heaven lounge provides a chic setting for tranquil relaxation. It is the perfect spot to watch the city lights flicker on across the Golden Horn.
Family Amenities
Families will find the spacious room layouts particularly convenient for city exploring.
