It is a wonderful structure built for the mountains, surrounded by greenery and with a beautiful view of the Bosphorus. The spaces are very beautiful and well-kept, everything smells of green and relaxation is king. My room boasts the original stucco work of the main house, very elegant and classy. So far I have tried 2 restaurants (Scalini and Toro) where the quality of the food is truly exceptional.

Surely the staff should be more trained on how to serve and above all speak English. At the pool the service is non-existent, they don't have a menu, you can't eat and they don't want to or don't care to serve you. Isn't there a director to supervise? The pool should also be cleaned more thoroughly.

The beauty of the hotel is indisputable, embraced by the scents and smells of the surrounding forest. During your stay you will forget that you are in Istanbul if it were not for the Bosphorus in the background. Excellent food quality especially in Scalini and Toro restaurants. Very good Dùgas who works at breakfast, speaks English and Spanish and the staff at Scalini are also very good, very knowledgeable and hospitable.

The presence of a director who controls the precarious work of the staff (especially in the swimming pool) is not felt at all. They should run less with the shuttles when they take you up, that kind of speed is unacceptable and I didn't find the spa up to a six sense at all. The masseur wasn't gentle at all even though she told him to go slowly

Coming off a 3 week trip with minimal sleep, i booked the Bosphorus Sea View room for 1 night to relax and reset and it was heaven. From when you walk into the room, it is stunning, spacious and luxurious. Extremely comfortable bed, stunning double vanity bathroom with a big bath tub, dual rainfall and handheld shower. I only had one window overlooking the Bosphorus but it was still stunning, the other windows overlooked the courtyard. This room is a little on the expensive side but it was money well spent as I was in there from when I checked in to when I checked out. Breakfast was al a carte and was nice. I would definitely stay here again and again and again.

That I didn't stay longer.

I’m so grateful for my self to choose this hotel, stayed 2 nights in December 2024 and I wish i can stay more! Very nice property, very royal service, super friendly and professional staff. My accommodation was in room 224, it’s a courtyard view but I enjoyed the Bosphorus partial view! High ceiling, large windows, spacious, nice layout, heated marble bathroom, high quality toiletries, comfy bed, high-tech system for the lights and shades. I didn’t experience any noise even the music in the courtyard did not disturb me. To make it a stay for the body and soul I gifted myself a traditional turkish bath, the spa is in the top of the mountain! So you can give it a hike or the hotel is offering golf car to take you there, stunning view from the top. I enjoyed the spa facilities sauna and steam room before the hamam which done by a turkish lady her name is Behar, very nice experience. Hint: choose your stay with breakfast and the spa is a must to try! My breakfast experience at chef Erdal was very pleasant, very cozy and relaxed ambience in the glass house. i have been served by Dogan very attentive, friendly and super professional, he speaks English very well and this is a plus for non-Turkish speakers, also thanks to Elif, she speaks English as well, very helpful and friendly, believe me your experience will be perfect when they both in duty. The menu is ‘A la carte’ with a small buffet, very fresh ingredients, well presented, and delicious. Hint: don’t go when you’re in low carb diet as their bakery selection is irresistible and heavenly good 😋

spacious elegant rooms friendly staff

limited breakfast water in the shower going out the shower area

Very luxurious property with an amazing location. The suite i stayed in was very spacious with an amazing view, generously equipped and has all the amenities you would expect at such a high end resort. I had originally booked a suite without a Bosphorus view but front office staff Mert was very thoughtful and upgraded our suite. I was so impressed that i have actually extended my stay. A visit to the SPA is a must as it has breath-taking views. Most importantly the best thing the hotel has is a team of very professional, friendly and very helpful staff. our stay at Six Senses was the icing on the cake of a great trip to Turkey.

That i had to leave !

I am in awe of how beautiful the place is! The staff were very friendly & kind, Everything everywhere was very clean & The hotel’s attention to details is truly remarkable ! Would definitely come back as soon as possible & would recommend it to anyone who’s seeking some high quality time with their loved ones or with themselves 🩷 this hotel takes you to a sweet spot, somewhere between the sophisticated past & elegant future where you feel connected to earth & tranquility.

It is my top three hotels in Istanbul together with Mandarin Oriental and Kempinski, but more relaxed and charming. Nothing to complain about. The place is great, comfortable and worth it's cost. Highly recommended if you are choosing among 5* luxury segment.

The only small minus is that the place is quite far from historic center and popular places you usually visit as a tourist (assuming traffic in Istanbul which sometime is terrible on the European side)). But it does not make an impression worse, not at all.

Nice hotel, friendly staff, nice room

The details not always match the price level: you could only switch off all lights or none at all, the air conditioning could not be canceled, the cooling was excellent but a little cold … minor details but not at the level of the hotel

Everything is amazing the hotel one of the best but the management in the hotel ( receptionist/ housekeeper/ waitress) very very unprofessional they made a lot of mistakes

I hope next time i see new management new professional Staff because i had bad experience and would like to thanks the manager for understanding and being helpful
