About
Vakko Hotel Sumahan Bosphorus
Vakko Hotel Sumahan Bosphorus occupies a former distillery on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus, reborn as a 12-room boutique hotel. The hotel carries the Vakko name, known in Istanbul for design and detail, and the result is a quiet, intimate stay that feels more like a private residence than a conventional hotel.
Rooms open to sea views from the Guest Room to the split-level Maisonette, with simple, comfortable fittings. The hotel runs a full spa with Turkish bath and massage, plus a restaurant and bar, a garden, and a fitness centre. With only a dozen rooms, service is close and attentive, and the hotel manages to feel both personal and polished.

- Check-in window starts late — Check-in begins at 15:00 and is only available until 23:59, which can be inconvenient for late arrivals.
